hey mate..
If we were to look into this question from the perspective of operations management:
In flow shop processes, process is set in a linear structure. Therefore, most of the times the machines necessary to finish the process are set in a convenient way in order to minimize idle times. I think that this is convenient when you have a standardized product. McDonalds could be a somewhat comparable example. For example, BigMacs are going through one and the same pre-set process.
In the job shop processes, processes are set according to the functions of various parts of the process. I think that would be convenient when you cannot standardize your product to make a assembly like process. For example, a fine dining restaurant with a changing menu. As a result, processes in such kitchen are divided into workstations by functions (e.g. saucier, grill, pastry and other workstations). This order helps to maintain the variety and flexibility of a restaurant.
At least this is how I compare flow shop and job shop, I am sorry this is not really related to computer engineering. :)
hope it helps..✌️✌️
