Summary

In a 1985 issue of this journal, Kusiak presented a formulation of the single period station loading problem related to planning of Flexible Manufacturing Systems. This note makes several observations about this formulation and the linear programming solution technique used. Possible variations and some structural properties of the fomulation are highlighted.
