It is something of a combination of the strategies mentioned here. For each period, it keeps the wor

Product modifications are up-to-date because of the low amount of work-in-process. There is a smooth flow throughout t

The system must contain excess capacity. Output of the system must be fixed for a period of time. There must be a smooth rel
