Area of Research

Prof. Sriskandarajah's research revolves around solving various production planning and scheduling problems with the aim of making the production process more economical and efficient. Recently, his efforts have been directed towards applying theoretical results, and developing new techniques to solve problems that arise in modern manufacturing systems. His research interests lie in the general area of production planning and scheduling, machine scheduling theory, maintenance scheduling, inventory and supply chain management, group technology and performance evaluation of production systems. His articles on these topics have appeared in Operations Research, Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, Annals of Operations Research, International Journal of Flexible Manufacturing Systems, European Journal of Operational Research, International Journal of Production Research, Journal of Operational Research Society, and INFOR. He is a member of IIE and INFORMS.
