Guide to Industrial Wireless Systems Deployments

May 21, 2018

Author(s)

Richard Candell, Mohamed T. Hany, Kang B. Lee, Yongkang Liu, Jeanne T. Quimby, Catherine A. Remley

This document is intended to be a practical guide used by engineers and managers facilitating them to go through the process of defining the objectives of their wireless systems and examining the environments where the wireless systems are to be deployed

Implementations of the Tennessee Eastman Process in Modelica

February 22, 2018

Author(s)

Carla Martin-Villalba, Alfonso Urquia, Guodong Shao

The Tennessee Eastman process is a typical industrial process that consists of five main process units: a two-phase reactor where an exothermic reaction occurs, a separator, a stripper, a compressor, and a mixer. This is a nonlinear open-loop unstable

Self-Similar Architectures for Smart Manufacturing and Logistics Systems

February 5, 2018

Author(s)

Timothy A. Sprock

Self-similar architectures can simplify some design and interoperability challenges for smart manufacturing and logistics systems. To be effective, self-similar architectures for these domains must extend existing models of self-similar controller

Summary Report on a Workshop on Advanced Monitoring, Diagnostics, and Prognostics for Manufacturing Operations

November 13, 2017

Author(s)

Brian A. Weiss, Donnie Alonzo, Steve D. Weinman

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), in collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, hosted a "Workshop on Advanced Monitoring, Diagnostic, and Prognostic Technologies" at the conclusion of the ASME Manufacturing

NIST Channel Sounder Overview and Channel Measurements in Manufacturing Facilities

November 8, 2017

Author(s)

Jeanne T. Quimby, Richard Candell, Catherine A. Remley, David R. Novotny, Joseph Diener, Peter B. Papazian, Alexandra Curtin, Galen H. Koepke

Manufacturers are increasingly choosing wireless platforms to replace wired ones due to their ease of installation, upgrade, and reconfigurability. Reliable and secure real-time performance of wireless platforms is technically challenging because wireless

Performance Analysis of Multi-Product Bernoulli Lines with Dedicated Finite Buffers

September 29, 2017

Author(s)

Shaw C. Feng, Kyungsu Park, Jingshan Li

This paper is devoted to studying the performance of multi-product two-machine lines with Bernoulli reliability machines and dedicated finite buffers under priority, cyclic and work-in-process (WIP)-based scheduling policies. For small scale systems, exact

Improvement Strategies for Manufacturers using the MESA MOM Capability Maturity Model

September 3, 2017

Author(s)

Quanri Li, Michael Brundage, Boonserm Kulvatunyou

Recently, the concept of smart manufacturing has emerged as a new paradigm, with which manufacturers can pursue their competitiveness in the market. Such a paradigm can be viewed as the convergence of Information & Communication Technologies with human and

A Study on Performance Evaluation and Status-based Decision for Cyber-Physical Production Systems

August 23, 2017

Author(s)

Yan Lu, Feifan Wang, Feng Ju

In concert with the advances in information and communication technology and its applications to manufacturing environments, physical entities in factories are acquiring more intelligence via the integration with cyber systems. This integration brings

INVESTIGATING GREY-BOX MODELING FOR PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS IN SMART MANUFACTURING

August 8, 2017

Author(s)

Peter O. Denno, Yan Lu, Paul Witherell, Sundar Krishnamurty, Ian Grosse, Douglas Eddy

This paper develops a grey-box modeling approach that combines manufacturing knowledge-based (white-box) models with statistical (black-box) metamodels to improve model reusability and predictability. A white-box model can utilize different types of

Maturity models and tools for enabling Smart Manufacturing Systems: comparison and reflections for future developments

Industrial Wireless Systems Workshop Proceedings

May 11, 2017

Author(s)

Richard Candell

Background: Wireless technology has great appeals to many manufacturers, in this case industrial automation systems, which include process control, discrete manufacturing, safety systems, and building automation. Applying wireless sensing and control

RFID Technology in Forensic Evidence Management: An Assessment of Barriers, Benefits, and Costs

October 30, 2014

Author(s)

Shannan R. Williams, Melissa Taylor, Anuj Mehta, Irland Jeffrey

Forensic science laboratories and law enforcement agencies have increasingly used automated identification technology (AIT), such as barcoding and radio frequency identification (RFID), to track and manage forensic evidence, firearms, and personnel. AIT

Impact of RF Interference between a Passive RFID System and a Frequency Hopping Communications System in the 900 MHz ISM Band

July 25, 2010

Author(s)

Michael R. Souryal

We present experimental measurements and analysis of RF interference between a passive RFID system and a generic frequency hopping communications system in the 902 928 MHz ISM radio band. Interference in both directions is considered, RFID to
