2. 1. Automated Bottleneck Analysis of Production Systems : Increasing the applicability of simulation-based multi-objective optimization for bottleneck analysis within industry

   Author : Jacob Bernedixen; Amos H. C. Ng; Anna Syberfeldt; Kalyanmoy Deb; Leif Pehrsson; Magnus Wiktorsson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bottleneck analysis; bottleneck identification; bottleneck improvement; multi-objective optimization; simulation; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

   Abstract : Manufacturing companies constantly need to explore new management strategies and new methods to increase the efficiency of their production systems and retain their competitiveness. It is of paramount importance to develop new bottleneck analysis methods that can identify the factors that impede the overall performance of their productionsystems so that the optimal improvement actions can be performed.

4. 2. Efficient Memory Modeling During Simulation and Native Execution

   Author : Nikos Nikoleris; Erik Hagersten; Lieven Eeckhout; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; performance analysis; cache performance; multicore performance; memory system; memory bandwidth; memory contention; performance prediction; multi-threading; multiprocessing systems; program diagnostics; commodity multicores; multithreaded program resource requirements; performance counters; scalability bottleneck; scalability improvement; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : Application performance on computer processors depends on a number of complex architectural and microarchitectural design decisions. Consequently, computer architects rely on performance modeling to improve future processors without building prototypes. READ MORE

5. 3. Mine production index: Development and application

   Author : Amol Lanke; Javad Barabady; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production Assurance program PAP ; Fuzzy analytical hierarchy process FAHP ; Mine production assurance MPA ; Bottleneck detection; Mine production index MPi ; Mining; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance Engineering;

   Abstract : Assuring production forms a crucial part of mining business profitability. Factors related to various mine operations, activities and business processes can threaten required/planned mine production. To address problems and ensure production level in mining, it is necessary to implement a mine production assurance program (MPA). READ MORE

6. 4. Applicability of continuous improvements in industrialised construction design process

   Author : Erik Söderholm; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

   Abstract : The construction design phase is currently the most time consuming part of the industrialised construction process and the bottleneck for further streamlining the process at most industrialised construction companies in Sweden. One explanation is that every construction design project is considered as something new and unique, wherefore use of experiences to promote continuous improvement is limited (Meiling 2008).

7. 5. Manufacturing management and decision support using simulation-based multi-objective optimisation

   Author : Leif Pehrsson; David Stockton; Ng Amos; Mats Jackson; Raouf Hamzaoui; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Manufacturing Management; Decision Support; simulation; Multi-objective; optimisation; Production systems; Teknik; Technology;

   Abstract : A majority of the established automotive manufacturers are under severe competitive pressure and their long term economic sustainability is threatened. In particular the transformation towards more CO2-efficient energy sources is a huge financial burden for an already investment capital intensive industry. READ MORE
