Abstract
This paper focuses on configuration design optimization of the assembly supply chain network. It is intended to use this approach to select an optimal assembly process structure in early stages of manufacturing/assembly process design. For the purpose of optimization, structural complexity measures as optimality criteria are considered. In order to compare alternatives in terms of their complexity, a method for creating comparable process structures is outlined. Subsequently, relevant comparable process structures are assessed to determine their structural complexity.
