    Author : Carlos Alberto Barrera Diaz; Amos Ng; Tehseen Aslam; Amir Nourmohammadi; Thomas Ditlev Brunø; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Virtual Production Development VPD ; Virtual Production Development VPD ; VF-KDO; VF-KDO;

    Abstract : In today’s global and aggressive market system, for manufacturing companies to remain competitive, they must manufacture high-quality products that can be produced at a low cost; they also must respond efficiently to customers’ predictable and unpredictable needs and demand variations. Increasingly shortened product lifecycles, as well as product customization degrees, lead to swift changes in the market that need to be supported by capable and flexible resources able to produce faster and deliver to the market in shorter periods while maintaining a high degree of cost-efficiency.

  2. 7. 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.

  3. 8. Learning from Multi-Objective Optimization of Production Systems : A method for analyzing solution sets from multi-objective optimization

    Author : Catarina Dudas; Henrik Boström; Amos H.C. Ng; Johan Ölvander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Data mining; Post-optimization analysis; Production system analysis; data- och systemvetenskap; Computer and Systems Sciences;

    Abstract : The process of multi-objective optimization involves finding optimal solutions to several objective functions. However, these are typically in conflict with each other in many real-world problems, such as production system design. READ MORE

  4. 9. A real-time simulation-based optimisation environment for industrial scheduling

    Author : Marcus Frantzén; Philip Moore; David Stockton; Amos Ng; Stephen Newman; Riham Khalil; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Scheduling system; Simulation; Scheduling; simulation-based optimisation; Technology; Teknik; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : In order to cope with the challenges in industry today, such as changes in product diversity and production volume, manufacturing companies are forced to react more flexibly and swiftly. Furthermore, in order for them to survive in an ever-changing market, they also need to be highly competitive by achieving near optimal efficiency in their operations. READ MORE

  5. 10. An interactive decision support system using simulation-based optimization and knowledge extraction

    Author : Ingemar Karlsson; Amos Ng; Anna Syberfeldt; Sunith Bandaru; Leif Pehrsson; Anders Skoogh; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : The use of simulation to improve existing manufacturing systems is not new, but simulation can also be used increase the understanding of production systems that have not yet been built. The power of simulation models can be further enhanced by using simulation-based optimization, in which an optimization algorithm tries to find optimal solutions, given certain objectives. READ MORE
