22. TOWARDS CONTINUOUSLY UPDATED SIMULATION MODELS: Combining Automated Raw Data Collection and Automated Data Processing
Topic: Simulation
Published: 12/10/2010
Authors: John L Michaloski, Anders Skoogh, Nils Bengtsson
Abstract: Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a powerful tool for efficiency improvements in production. However, instead of integrating the tool in the daily work of production engineers, companies apply it mostly in single-purpose studies such as major invest ...

24. Using Simulation To Assess The Effectiveness of Pallet Stacking Methods
Topic: Simulation
Published: 11/19/2010
Authors: Stephen B. Balakirsky, Frederick M Proctor, Thomas Rollin Kramer, Pushkar Kolhe, Henrik I. Christensen
Abstract: Stacking objects onto pallets is the most widely used method of bulk shipping, accounting for over 60% of the volume of goods shipped worldwide. Due in part to the wide variation in size, shape and weight of objects to be palletized, successful stack ...
