The resulting policy involves switching curves and hedging stocks. At each time, the index policy selects the item to be produced for any global state of the net inventories. Moreover, the optimal hedging level is also reproduced for a single item problem.Dynamic schedulingMake-to-stock productionPriority indicesRestless banditCustomer satisfactionFlexible manufacturing systemsMarkov processesMathematical modelsOperations researchProcess controlProduction controlSchedulingFlexible machineMulti-items production operationRestless Bandit problem formulationAgile manufacturing systemsDynamic scheduling of a multi-items production operating on a make-to-stock basistext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
