Changes that occur as a result of costumized product or product mix will result in frequentudchanges in the process flow of each product that will ultimately change the layout. Thereby inudfuture periods activity redesigning existing layout is a must and will become more frequent.udDynamic facility layout is the right choice to accommodate the changes that occurred to makeuda trade off between the rearrangement cost and material handling cost. This paper discussesudan algorithm developed for single-row dynamic facility layout. Test results using someudhypothetical scenarios of data shows the algorithm has a better performance for determiningudthe time window length and the resulting total cost. udKeywords : Dynamic Facility Layout, single-row, rearrangement cost, material handling cost, udtime window.
