Building Analytical Support for Homeland Security

February 2, 2015
Author(s)
Sanjay Jain, Charles W. Hutchings, Yung-Tsun Lee
This chapter discusses modeling and simulation as a significant means for providing analytical support for homeland security problem solving and decision making that involves what can be considered a complex and dynamic system of systems - the current

Towards Development of a Testbed for Sustainable Manufacturing

November 25, 2014
Author(s)
Juyeon Lee, Seungjun Shin, Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Don E. Libes
A growing number of manufacturing companies are treating sustainability as a strategic objective that will increase both their global competitiveness and their market share. To implement this objective, these companies must first assess, and then evaluate

PMML in Manufacturing Applications

September 12, 2014
Author(s)
Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Juyeon Lee
In manufacturing, an enormous amount of data, both real and simulation data, is being continuously generated. The appropriate information, if extracted from big data, could provide insights on increasing sustainability, productivity, flexibility, and

A Framework for Research Inventory of Manufacturing Sustainability Assessment

May 19, 2014
Author(s)
Juyeon Lee, Yung-Tsun T. Lee
There have been many research papers focused on development of guidelines, indicators, metrics, methods, tools, and systems – all related to sustainability performance assessment. However, manufacturing companies have difficulty in finding papers that are

Ambulance Design Survey 2011: A Summary Report

January 15, 2014
Author(s)
Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Deogratias Kibira, Allison Barnard Feeney, Jennifer L. Marshall
Current ambulance designs are ergonomically inefficient and often times unsafe for practical treatment response to medical emergencies. Thus, the patient compartment of a moving ambulance is a hazardous working environment. As a consequence, emergency

Interoperability for Virtual Manufacturing systems

January 14, 2014
Author(s)
Yung-Tsun Lee, Juyeon Lee, Frank H. Riddick, Donald E. Libes, Deogratias Kibira
Manufacturing systems are often costly to develop and operate. Simulation technology has been demonstrated to be an effective tool for improving manufacturing system design and the efficiency of manufacturing operations and maintenance. However, to use

CMSD - A Manufacturing Simulation Integration Standard: Overview and Case Studies

May 10, 2013
Author(s)
Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Frank H. Riddick, Bjoern J. Johansson
Standard representations for information entities common to manufacturing simulation could help reduce the costs associated with simulation model construction and data exchange between simulation and other manufacturing applications. This would make

Modeling and Simulation for Improving Ambulance Patient Compartment Design Standards

April 12, 2013
Author(s)
Deogratias Kibira, Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Allison Barnard Feeney, Jennifer L. Marshall, Larry Avery, Jennifer Moore, Carlotta Boone
Emergency medical service providers riding in ambulance patient compartments, while caring for patients, are at high risk of suffering injuries in case of a crash or sudden maneuver. Seat belts are one way to reduce the occurrence and severity of injuries

Requirements Analysis for Safer Ambulance Patient Compartments

March 22, 2013
Author(s)
Mehdi Dadfarnia, Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Allison Barnard Feeney, Deogratias Kibira
Providing emergency care services in the confined space of the patient compartment of a moving ambulance is a hazardous activity. A National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST)/Department of Homeland Security (DHS) project is applying systems

Survey Report for Ambulance Patient Compartment Design

January 22, 2013
Author(s)
Allison Barnard Feeney, Deogratias Kibira, Yung-Tsun T. Lee, Jennifer L. Marshall
NIST conducted a survey (Office of Management and Budget, Control No. 1090-0007) of the emergency medical services (EMS) professionals in December 2011. The objective of the survey is to aid in the development of design standards for the patient
