Abstract

The problem with more than one machine is involved in at least one stage of the flow type scheduling is called Hybrid Flow Type. In this study, an analysis is conducted on the literature pertaining to hybrid flow type scheduling issues since 1995. The determination of the evolution of hybrid flow type scheduling issues over the past 30 years has been attempted through the utilization of bibliometric analysis. Bibliometric analysis evaluates the development of a field by examining publications, citations and other metrics in scientific literature. In the bibliometric analysis, a query was made from the “Scopus” database with the keyword “Hybrid Flow Shop Scheduling Problems” and the analysis was performed using the Bibliometrix package in the R-Studio program. A total of 766 documents were analyzed, and it was determined that 20 620 citations were made to these documents. The annual growth rate was calculated to be 3.73%. The results of the research show that significant work has been done in this area by researchers from China, the United States, and Europe. The findings of this study demonstrate that research on scheduling problems of hybrid flow type exhibits a diverse geographical distribution and encourages an interdisciplinary approach.

Özet

Akış tipi çizelgelemenin, en az bir aşamasında, birden fazla makinen yer aldığı problem, Esnek akış tipi olarak isimlendirilmektedir. Bu araştırmada 1995 yılından günümüze kadar Esnek akış tipi çizelgeleme problemleri ile ilgili literatürde yapılan çalışmalar incelenmiştir. Esnek akış tipi çizelgeleme problemlerinin son 30 yıldaki gelişimi bibliyometrik analiz yardımıyla belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bibliyometrik analiz, bilimsel literatürdeki yayınları, atıfları ve diğer ölçümleri inceleyerek bir alanın gelişimini değerlendirir. Bibliyometrik analizde, “Scopus” veri tabanından “Hybrid Flow Shop Scheduling Problems” anahtar kelimesiyle sorgu yapılmış ve analizler R-Studio programında Bibliometrix paketi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Toplam 766 belge incelenmiş, bu belgelere toplam 20 620 atıf yapıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Yıllık büyüme oranın %3,73 olduğu hesaplanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, Çin, ABD ve Avrupa’daki bilim insanları tarafından bu alanda önemli çalışmalar yapıldığı görülmüştür. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, Esnek akış tipi çizelgeleme problemleri üzerine yapılan araştırmaların geniş bir coğrafi dağılıma sahip olduğunu ve disiplinler arası bir yaklaşımı teşvik ettiğini ortaya koymuştur.
