    Operations can be scheduled so they can accommodate sequential and overlapping operations. A sequential operation is one where a work center can run jobs one after the other. An overlapping operation is one which begins a new sublot (e.g., sublot B) before the first sublot (e.g., sublot A) is complete. Sublot A is sent to the second stage of the operation once it is completed, allowing sublot B to enter the first stage. Both of these operations are designed to maximize capacity constraints in order to meet order deadlines.
