   Abstract : In the automotive industry, short ramp up times and high product quality drive the development toward state-of-the-art solutions both in the research and industrial perspective. In addition to that, a sustainable industry requires optimized equipment utilization, in terms of materials used and consumed energy. READ MORE

5. 3. Enhancing aftermarket demand planning with product-in-use data

   Author : Joakim Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Big data; Digitalization; Product-in-use.; Forecasting; Demand planning; Aftermarket;

   Abstract : Enhancing aftermarket demand planning with product-in-use data ABSTRACT Aftermarket demand planning, consisting of forecast and known demand, is a critical activity for both the uptime of customers’ products and the supply chain-related costs. Traditional aftermarket forecasting methods use historical demand as the only input to the statistically based forecasts, usually combined with judgmental modifications. READ MORE

6. 4. Model driven process planning for machining : Theory, application and improved information standards for efficient product realization

   Author : Mikael Hedlind; Torsten Kjellberg; Fumihiko Kimura; KTH; []

   Abstract : Model driven process planning is a methodology that emphasizes the application of models to create, represent and use information of products, processes and resources. Industry today stores information in a fragmented manner, mainly document centered with the consequence of data duplication requiring comprehensive data management and maintenance. READ MORE

7. 5. Strategic Life-Cycle Modeling and Simulation for Sustainable Product Innovation

   Author : Henrik Ny; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable product innovation; planning; strategy; backcasting; life-cycle assessment LCA ; strategic life-cycle management SLCM ; systems; modeling; simulation;

   Abstract : Many specific methods and tools have been developed to deal with sustainability problems. However, without a unifying theory it is unclear how these relate to each other and how they can be used strategically. A Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) is being developed to cover this need for clarity and structure. READ MORE
