Abstract: | The main feature of the method suggested in this paper is the assignment of priority to elements and priority elements are preferred to non-priority elements when assigning elements to stations. It accepts element times from known or unknown symmetrical distributions, minimizes the variation within a station and allows assignments of elements to stations such that each station time does not exceed the probability confidence levels set by management. |
