Abstract
In this chapter, we model and solve a very general single-machine production system with early setup, bilevel threshold control, and extra job operations. The first threshold is used to control the setup starting time and the second threshold is used to control the production starting time. The system is modeled by the BMAP/G/1 queue and the manufacturing lead time is analyzed. The factorization principle is used to derive the distribution of the manufacturing lead time and the mean value. A numerical example is provided.
