  2. 31. Discrete-Event Simulation, Operations Analysis, and Manufacturing System Development: Towards Structure and Integration

    Author : Lars Holst; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Integration; Manufacturing System Development; Discrete-Event Simulation; Production technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : After more than four decades of presence in the manufacturing industry, discrete event simulation has established itself as a powerful technology for a wide range of strategic, tactical, and operational applications in production, logistics, and supply chain management. Discrete event simulation software packages - although not entirely adequate - are relatively capable, and methodologies for performing simulation projects are reasonably well-developed and documented.

    Abstract : Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are irreplaceable in attaining sustainable development in contemporary society. Owing to the extra degree of freedom in supplying traction power, HEVs resort to appropriate energy management strategies (EMSs) to present their superiority over conventional internal combustion engine vehicles and pure electric vehicles.

  5. 33. Strategic Colonels : The Discretion of Swedish Force Commanders in Afghanistan 2006–2013

    Author : Magnus Johnsson; Maria Heimer; Helena Wockelberg; Jan Ångström; Douglas Brommesson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; military strategy; policy implementation; discretion; Afghanistan; NATO; ISAF; force commander; military operations;

    Abstract : This dissertation examines the role of military officers as policy implementers by investigating the discretion of Swedish force commanders in the multinational military campaign in Afghanistan between 2006 and 2013. By developing an analytical framework that takes both an outside-in and an inside-out perspective, and that encompasses both the objective implications that structural factors project on force commanders as well as their subjective perceptions of those structural factors, and applying that framework to a range of official documents as well as unique interview data, the thesis describes the discretion that force commanders have had in interpreting, choosing and shaping their mission and concept of operations.

  6. 34. Manufacturing Dynamics and Performance Evaluation

    Author : Tigist Fetene Adane; Andreas Archenti; Mihai Nicolescu; Amos Ng; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Manufacturing system and strategy; performance evaluation; manufacturing dynamics; decision-making; system dynamics; sustainable and energy efficient manufacturing; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion;

    Abstract : Manufacturing companies are striving to remain competitive in the market and maintain their economic growth and productivity. Uncertainties regarding the changes in product demand, workpiece material, product design, and technological advancement, have imposed pressure on manufacturing systems. READ MORE

  7. 35. Improving the efficiency of eigenvector-related computations

    Author : Angelika Beatrix Schwarz; Lars Karlsson; Bo Kågström; Carl Christian Kjelgaard Mikkelsen; Miroslav Tůma; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high-performance computing; standard non-symmetric eigenvalue problem; triangular Sylvester equation; tiled algorithms; task parallelism;

    Abstract : An effective strategy in dense linear algebra is the design of algorithms as tiled algorithms. Tiled algorithms that express the bulk of the computation as matrix-matrix operations (level-3 BLAS) have proven successful in achieving high performance on cache-based architectures. READ MORE
