11. A RESTful Web Service for Virtual Supply Chain Time Management
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7680
Topic: Simulation
Published: 3/25/2010
Author: Guillaume Radde
Abstract: A common issue when building distributed simulations is the issue of time management. Each discrete event simulation has its own notion of time, and a mechanism needs to be set up to allow each simulation to run at the same pace. Different architectu ...

12. A Real World Pilot implementation of the Core Manufacturing Simulation Information Model
Topic: Simulation
Published: 6/23/2008
Authors: Swee Kong Leong, Marcus Johansson, Bj?rn Johansson, Yung-Tsun Tina Lee, Frank H Riddick
Abstract: While software for discrete event simulation (DES) has emerged into sophisticated tools for decision support in a wide range of contexts, the need to integrate DES tools with other applications is increasing. In the industrial engineering context, si ...

13. A Roadmap for STEP-NC Enabled Interoperable Manufacturing
Topic: Simulation
Published: 6/17/2011
Authors: Fiona Zhao, Frederick M Proctor, Martin Hardwick, Sid Venkatesh, David Odendahl, Xun Xu
Abstract: STEP-NC is the result of a ten-year international effort to replace the RS274D (ISO 6983) G and M code standard with a modern associative language. The new standard connects CAD design data to CAM process data so that smart applications can understan ...
