  • Abstract
    This paper presents an iterative approach to model and analyze one type of flexible manufacturing systems with common lines and dedicated branches to process different products. The mathematical procedures, associated with the justification of convergence and accuracy, are provided. A case study is presented to illustrate the applicability of the method.
