BLANKS: A Computer Program for Analyzing Furniture Rough-Part Needs in Standards-Size Blanks

摘要

A computer program is described that allows a company to determine the number of edge-glued, standard-size blanks required to satisfy its rough-part needs for a given production period. Yield and cost information also is determined by the program. A list of the program inputs, outputs, and uses of outputs is described, and an example analysis with sample output is included.
