Summary

This talk will present real-life industrial scheduling problems faced by industries such as semiconductors, steels, tires, and shipbuilding with a specific focus on the application of AI. Manufacturing companies have recently shown a growing interest in using AI due to its promising results reported in papers, and they are eager to apply it in scheduling problems. In this talk, I will introduce real projects conducted with manufacturing companies, discuss the challenges of implementing AI or other heuristic algorithms in practical settings, and examine the advantages and limitations of using AI in comparison to optimization or meta-heuristic methods.
