The development of a rule‐based expert system (ES), driven by a discrete event simulation model, that performs dynamic shop scheduling is described. Based on a flowtime prediction heuristic that has been developed and base‐line runs to establish the efficacy of scheduling strategies such as shortest processing time (SPT), critical ratio, total work, etc., a rescheduling‐based dispatching strategy is investigated in a dynamic job shop environment. The results are discussed and analyzed.
