An Architecture for a Generic Data-Driven Machine Shop Simulator

October 1, 2002
Author(s)
Charles R. McLean, Albert T. Jones, Yung-Tsun Lee, Frank H. Riddick
In most cases, the effort required to develop a meaningful simulation for a small machine shop exceeds the resources available. Small shops typically do not have staff with appropriate technical qualifications required to develop custom simulations of

Simulation System Modeling for Mass Customization Manufacturing

August 1, 2002
Author(s)
Guixiu Qiao, Charles R. McLean, Frank H. Riddick
Emerging rapidly as a new paradigm of the 21st century, Mass Customization Manufacturing (MCM) systems possess some special characteristics that make the modeling of such systems extremely difficult. These characteristics include concurrency

Reactive Scheduling System Implementations Using a Simulated Shop Floor

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
Frank H. Riddick
Developing approaches to integrating manufacturing applications is important for increasing manufacturing productivity. A reactive scheduling system architecture has been developed that defines how to integrate scheduling technology with manufacturing shop

Models for Integrating Scheduling and Shop Floor Data Collection

February 1, 1997
Author(s)
Frank H. Riddick, V. Lourenco
Increasing shop floor efficiency through scheduling has become one of the major concerns of manufacturing companies. Two of the problems that manufacturers have to overcome are 1) it is difficult to input the information needed for scheduling into the
