2. 1. Sales and operations planning based on a modularized view of supply chains : Supporting process industries and discrete manufacturing industries

   Author : Sayeh Noroozi; Joakim Wikner; Ou Tang; Patrik Jonsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sales and operations planning; Decoupling point; Performance measure; Process industry; Discrete manufacturing industry;

   Abstract : The purpose of this dissertation is to propose a framework for sales and operations planning (S&OP), which is based on a modularized view of supply chains. The framework should support both process industries and discrete manufacturing industries in their quest for performance. READ MORE

4. 2. Performance-based costing as decision support for development of discrete part production : Linking performance, production costs and sustainability

   Abstract : In today’s global market, the industry is struggling every day to make the “correct decisions”. Decisions concerning production can range from smaller improvements to choice tool or equipment investments to relocation of entire production facilities. READ MORE

5. 3. Strategic Maintenance Development in Manufacturing Industry

   Author : Antti Salonen; Mats Deleryd; Marcus Bengtsson; Pra Murthy; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

   Abstract : Industrial maintenance is a substantial financial post. The total value of maintenance budgets in Europe has been estimated to be approximately 1500 billion € per year. At the same time, there are indications that about a third of these costs are wasted due to poor planning, overtime costs, inferior use of preventive maintenance and so forth. READ MORE

6. 4. Towards Human Supervisory Control in Advanced Manufacturing Systems

   Author : Johan Stahre; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human; CIM; case study; operator; FMS; supervisory control; method; manufacturing; model; cross-disciplinary;

   Abstract : This thesis is on the topic of Human Supervisory Control in Advanced Manufacturing Systems (AMS). Presently, these systems suffer from inferior reliability and low productivity, unless "nursed" by skilled operators. Operators controlling the AMS are approaching a work situation similar to that of operators in continuous process manufacturing. READ MORE

7. 5. Hierarchical Control and Restart of Flexible Manufacturing Systems

   Author : Kristin Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Restart; Flexible manufacturing; Finite state automata; Petri nets; Supervisory control theory; Process algebra; Discrete event systems; Hierarchical control; Supervisor synthesis;

   Abstract : Product life-cycles are constantly shortening, and the amount of new product types increases, for example in the automotive industry. Growing demands on flexibility and ability to decrease time to market has made it increasingly important to find methods for fast and accurate development of control programs for flexible manufacturing cells.
