2. 1. Configuration Design of a High Performance and Responsive Manufacturing System : Modeling and Evaluation

   Author : Daniel Tesfamariam Semere; Bengt Lindberg; Bolmsjö Gunnar; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Configuration; Modeling; Evaluation; Manufacturing engineering; Produktionsteknik;

   Abstract : Configuring and reconfiguring a manufacturing system is presented as an issue with increasing importance due to higher frequency of system configuration or major reconfigurations to accommodate new set of requirements and/or the need to configure the system to make it usable across generations of products or product families. This research has focused in the modeling, evaluation and selection decisions which involves multiple, incommensurate and conflicting objectives. READ MORE

4. 2. Towards strategic development of maintenance and its effects on production performance : A hybrid simulation-based optimization framework

   Author : Gary Linnéusson; Amos H. C. Ng; Tehseen Aslam; Daniel Tesfamariam Semere; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strategic development; maintenance behavior; maintenance management; sustainable change; tradeoff optimization; system dynamics; discrete event simulation; problem structuring; multi-objective optimization; decision support; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

   Abstract : Managing maintenance in manufacturing within an economical short-termism framework and taking the consequential long-term cost effects into account is hard. The increasing complexity of managing maintenance and its impact on the business results calls for more advanced methods to support long-term development through effective activities in the production system environment.

5. 3. Knowledge discovery for interactive decision support and knowledge-driven optimization

   Author : Henrik Smedberg; Sunith Bandaru; Amos Ng; Maria Riveiro; Jonathan Fieldsend; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Virtual Production Development VPD ; Virtual Production Development VPD ; VF-KDO; VF-KDO;

   Abstract : Multi-objective optimization involves the simultaneous optimization of several objective functions. In real-world problems, these objectives are often in conflict, giving rise to trade-offs in the optimal solutions from the optimization process. All these solutions are equally viable, with no single solution being better or worse than the others. READ MORE

6. 4. Identifying and Managing Key Challenges in Architecting Software-Intensive Systems

   Author : Peter Wallin; Jakob Axelsson; Stig Larsson; Christer Norström; Antony Tang; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systems engineering; Systemteknik; Software engineering; Programvaruteknik; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

   Abstract : In many traditional industry applications, such as automotive, process automation and manufacturing automation, software plays a crucial role as an enabler for the introduction of new functionality and retaining competitiveness. The system and software architecture plays an important part in ensuring the systems’ qualities. READ MORE

7. 5. Efficient commuter craft for urban waterborne public transportation

   Author : Harsha Cheemakurthy; Karl Garme; Joakim Kalantari; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waterborne public transportation; commuter ferry; modular design; operational requirements; ranking method; sustainable performance; ice operations; ice-hull Interaction; ice load; ice properties; kollektivtrafik på vatten; modulärt färjekoncept; modulär design; rankningsmetod; hållbarhetsparametrar; isbelastning; isförhållanden; isegenskaper; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : There has been a recent surge in interest in waterborne public transportation (WPT). Publictransport providers (PTP) are seeing its potential in complementing the existing transportnetwork and alleviating urban traffic congestion and pollution. But the adoption of WPTtoday is challenging due to a series of technical and implementation challenges. READ MORE
