For the rapid response to production scheduling problem driven by high-density production tasks, a dynamic scheduling technology for the large precision strip products assembly with a mixture of task time nodes and line-rail space is proposed. A scheduling constrained model containing coverage, proximity, timeliness and resource is established. A linear rail space production scheduling technology using heuristic automatic scheduling and event-driven method is put forward. The time rule based on delivery and single completion assembly is formed, at the same time the space rule based on the adjacent rail and comprehensive utilization is researched. Supposing the privilege of single product assembling as the core, the scheduling parts filter method based on multiple constraints and former rules. For the space layout problem, a clingy forward and backward algorithms is proposed to judge the assemble position regarding the space comprehensive utilization rate. The classification of the various disturbances in the actual production is summarized. Three basic algorithms are proposed, including insertion, moving and re-scheduling algorithm, in order to solve the assembly dynamic scheduling problem driven by production disturbance events. Finally, take rocket as the example, the rocket assembly space production scheduling system is developed, combining with the proposed algorithm. The practicability of the system is validated using real data.

Under new state-led governance models, a new generation of city entrepreneurs seeks to define work and living environments to meet their needs and aspirations in a collaborative way. In this field, international discourses are debating private investors as key players in urban development and the simultaneous withdrawal/absence of the state. This has led to more complex networks of participating actors and conflictive urban development patterns. Strategies are needed to understand the influence of commons-based space production. From the research project DFG-KOPRO-Int, the Authors aim to define learnings from urban development and housing projects, involved actors, processes and material quality of the projects.

<p>Compreende-se a centralidade intraurbana como especializações funcionais de algumas frações espaciais da cidade que se singularizam a partir da concentração e geração de fluxos permanentes de pessoas e mercadorias. Nessa direção, a centralidade dos serviços de saúde de Teresina tem seu marco inicial com a instalação do Hospital Getúlio Vargas (1941) no centro histórico da cidade. Desde então, diversos hospitais, clínicas, laboratórios e atividades correlatas aí se instalaram, o que lhes configura como o espaço de maior concentração destes na cidade. Mas, a partir dos anos 2000 inicia-se um processo de descentralização dos serviços de saúde para outros espaços citadinos, notadamente para os bairros mais centrais da zona Leste. Nesse sentido, objetiva-se analisar a produção espacial da centralidade dos serviços de saúde na zona Leste de Teresina, pautado em depoimentos de profissionais e empreendedores dos bairros Fátima, Jóquei e São Cristóvão que lidam com os referidos serviços. Argumenta-se que a constituição dessa nova centralidade dos serviços de saúde de Teresina baseia-se na busca do segmento de renda alta da cidade, o qual exige serviços exclusivos e próximos aos seus locais de moradia ou de mais fácil acessibilidade quando comparados aos encontrados no centro principal.</p><p><strong>Palavras-chaves</strong>: Centralidade.

In this direction, the centrality of the health services of Teresina has its beginning with the installation of Getúlio Vargas Hospital (1941) in the historic center of the city. Since then, several hospitals, laboratories and related activities have been installed, which is configured as their greatest concentration space of this city. But, from 2000, a process of decentralization of health services has begun to other city places, mainly to the more central districts of the East region. This way, it is aimed to analyze the space production of the centrality of the health services in the least region of Teresina, based on the testimony of the professionals and entrepreneurs of the districts of Fátima, Jóquei and São Cristóvão that deal with such services. It argues that the constitution of this new centrality of health services in Teresina is based on the search for the high income population of the city, which demands exclusive services and near their living places or of easier accessibility when compared to the ones found in the main downtown. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Centrality.

This article introduces partial discussions from a doctoral research in progress that has as object of study the tendency to paci cation and concealment of con icts veri ed in the production process of contemporary urban space - particularly in the most recent Brazil- ian cities - as well as its strategies and mechanisms of control. As a eld of study, it is proposed the city of Palmas, capital of Tocantins, last planned capital of the twentieth century, founded on May 20, 1989, a year that symbolizes the opening of the Western world to the neoliberal economic policy. Based on the observation of the absence of signi cant movements of resistance to the urban space production process at Palmas and interpreting it as a re ection of pacifying tendency of consensus and appeasement / masking of con icts as a feature of neoliberal city, we propose the hypothesis of physical and territorial con guration of the city as a laboratory of the neoliberal model of urban management, in which socio-spa- tial dynamics gradually developed in other contemporary cities through processes historically constructed, get explicit and take place, immediately or in a very short time. Through a historical ap- proach to the context of its creation and occupation, we propose an urban space production reading based on the recognition of char- acteristics relating to its conditions of New Town and neoliberal city as well as the incipient action of the social movements dedicated to the struggles for housing as social agents in this process.

En este artículo se explora una interpretación de los conflictos en torno al espacio en la Zona Metropolitana de la Ciudad de México (ZMCM) con base en los conceptos de orden y de contextos urbanos. Para ello se presenta en primer término un conjunto de formas históricas de producción del espacio urbano que, de acuerdo con los autores, conforman en la actualidad cuatro “ciudades”, es decir, otros tantos contextos urbanos que se diferencian entre sí, entre otras cuestiones, por el tipo de conflictos por el espacio que en cada uno de ellos aparece como dominante. En segundo término se examina el concepto de orden urbano y se propone una línea de interpretación de los conflictos relacionados con el espacio que marcan en la actualidad dicho orden en la metrópoli. Por último se describen e ilustran las dinámicas que caracterizan a cada uno de los cuatro contextos urbanos o “ciudades” a partir de las formas en que se combinan diferentes modalidades de organización del espacio, usos del espacio público y privado y conflictos dominantes por el espacio. AbstractResorting to the concepts of urban order and urban context, this paper explores an interpretation of conflicts concerning the uses and modes of appropriation of urban space in the metropolitan zone of Mexico City. To this end, it firstly characterizes a group of historical forms of urban space production that, according with the authors, have given place to four types of “cities” or urban contexts which are differentiated, among other things, because of the dominant spatial conflicts in each case observed. Then it discusses the concept of urban order and proposes an interpretation line of those spatial conflicts that, at present, shape the metropolitan urban order. Finally, it describes and exemplifies the four urban contexts dynamic, considering the ways in which different modalities of urban space organization, uses of public a private spaces, and dominant space conflicts are combined.

Originating from the palm Euterpe oleracea, the açaí is an endemic fruit of the Amazon rainforest, the consumption of which has grown strongly in Brazil since the 1990s and is emerging in other regions of the world. Consumed mainly in the form of pulp and erected as a "superfruit" by marketing players for its antioxidant and nutritional potential, the açaí berry goes through a dynamic process encompassing both its space production and international distribution circuit as well as its composition derivative products. In this conjuncture, our main objective is to understand the metamorphosis of the acai, that is to say when it is perceived much more as an economic resource than as a natural resource. To achieve this objective, our research uses as a main basis the Globalization Model of Amazonian Plants, proposed and developed by Beaufort (2017).
