ABSTRACT:
In a check schedule decision method, after simulating the production line to produce a time-varying number of in-process workpieces in a designated process unit, a check-available time period for the designated process unit is detected based on a comparison of the time-varying number of in-process workpieces to a predetermined level. Further, the production line is simulated under a constraint that the designated process unit is stopped operating during the check-available time period to produce a simulated output of the production line being simulated. When the simulated output is not smaller than a predetermined target figure, a check schedule of the designated process unit is decided within the check-available time period.
