Abstract:This study focuses on the dynamic scheduling problem of a re-entrant production line, in which all of the parts
are assumed to have the same processing routes and be processed on every machine. A two-layer dynamic
scheduling method is proposed for the dynamic scheduling of the re-entrant line with the objective of
minimising total earliness and tardiness. This method consists of two layers. The top layer is to select the
appropriate scheduling policy, and the bottom layer is to generate the scheduling by using the policy selected
in the top layer. In the top layer, three different rules are co
