Just-in-Time manufacturing consists in organizing the production of elements in order to meet a certain number of objectives or requirements according to the so-called "Just-in-Time philosophy". Just-in-Time has been extensively studied in the literature for many years due to the high number of real-life situations where it can be applied. This paper aims at revisiting Just-in-Time principles and detailing how they can be applied to the scheduling stage of a manufacturing process. Therefore, new models which are multicriteria ones by their very nature, are presented and discussed. The conclusions highlight the fact that most of the existing models presented in the scheduling literature happen to be incomplete regarding Just-in-Time principles.
