Human-aware dynamic job shop scheduling for sustainable manufacturing (Industry 5.0)

Imagine a smart factory planner that doesn’t just try to keep machines busy, but also pays attention to the people on the shop floor: their skills, fatigue, preferences, and safety. It constantly reshuffles the production schedule in real time when something changes (machine breakdowns, rush orders, people calling in sick), aiming to hit production targets while keeping workers healthy and engaged and reducing waste and energy use.
