Abstract
Data experiments are performed to investigate sensitivity of scheduling solution when disorder occurs due to human participation or other uncertainty in manufacturing system. Benchmark problems are adopted to demonstrate possible variations where entropy approach is introduced to evaluate sensitivity.
