arXiv:2607. 02941v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-product kitting delivery imposes significant challenges for real-time scheduling in hybrid manufacturing systems that integrate processing and assembly, as dynamic order arrivals simultaneously alter supply dependencies and the set of feasible job-machine assignments.

arXiv:2608. 15041v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coordinating multiple interacting units in complex engineering systems is challenging when system interactions are difficult to model, operational information is heterogeneous, and low-level actions must satisfy strict constraints.
