There are a lot of people within the manufacturing industry that are very interested in scheduling software. Chances are that since you’re reading this article it must pull some type of interest from you as well. Then there are those of us who work within the IT world and are just completely amazed at the crazy programs we can create which will make an organization run more efficiently while helping them save hundreds and thousands of dollars.

We never guessed we would grow up and become a person who writes genetic algorithms, sorry manufactures I know you have not a single clue what that means. So instead of just talking amongst ourselves about these amazing adventures we are taking we like to blog about them. Of course, right? Nerds love computers!

Here is a link to one of my most favorite blogs about productions scheduling. The blog mostly talks about scheduling software which is utilized within the manufacturing industry. This blog talks about subjects such as SaaS (Software as a Service), Thin client production scheduling, GPS and scheduling your software, the difference between canned and tailored software systems and much more!

It really is a great article site that shares real life stories about the needs of manufactures and the way these subjects are handled. Please take a few minutes and read over it, who knows you might even learn something from it.

Oh and by the way, genetic algorithms are a form of artificial intelligence that is used to make your scheduling systems do some pretty amazing things like rearranging the schedule so you can be as efficient as possible. Now that’s pretty cool.
