Abstract
Production scheduling that involves maintenance activities and resource constraints plays a crucial role in manufacturing and service environments of the modern age. While research on the combination of production-maintenance scheduling and production-resource scheduling is constantly increasing, limited research is available on the integration of all three aforementioned scheduling problems. To unite both research directions, this paper provides a detailed review on both the integration of maintenance and resource with production as well as a review on all three scheduling problems together. This paper is the first survey paper to provide an extensive review on the combinations of production, maintenance and resource scheduling of approximately 250 papers that have appeared until the end of 2020.
