2. 1. Bringing Together Lean, Simulation and Optimization : Defining a framework to support decision-making in system design and improvement

   Author : Ainhoa Goienetxea Uriarte; Amos H. C. Ng; Matías Urenda Moris; Stewart Robinson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lean; simulation; optimization; decision-making; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

   Abstract : The rapid changes in the market including globalization, the requirement for personalizedproducts and services by the customers, shorter product life-cycles, the exponential growthof technological advances, and the demographical changes, will demand organizations toeffectively improve and design their systems in order to survive. This is the actual paradigmcharacterizing the industrial and service sectors. READ MORE

4. 2. Logistics of Earthmoving Operations : Simulation and Optimization

   Author : Jiali Fu; Haris Koutsopoulos; Andreas Tapani; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Earthworks are a fundamental part of heavy construction engineering and involve the moving and processing of the soil surface of earth. Normally, earthmoving operations are carried out during the early stages of heavy construction projects. READ MORE

5. 3. Performance Analysis and Optimization via Simulation

   Author : Anders Svensson; Institutionen för informatik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; simulation; performance analysis; load sharing; mathematical model formalism; real-time control; design; Telecommunication engineering; modular optimization; circuit switched networks; Telekommunikationsteknik;

   Abstract : A large amount of scientific work has been carried out to enhance the methods used for design and control of technical systems. For many of these systems, the main objective is to utilize the limited resources in an optimal way. Different simulation techniques have, in many cases, been successfully applied to the analysis.

6. 4. A Simulation-Optimization Approach for Improved Robustness of Railway Timetables

   Author : Johan Högdahl; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Alireza Ahmadi; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railroad; Timetabling; Optimization; Simulation; Robustness; Punctuality; Delay prediction.; Järnväg; Tidtabelläggning; Optimering; Simulering; Robusthet; Punktlighet; Förseningsprediktion.; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

   Abstract : The timetable is an essential part for the operations of railway traffic, and its quality is considered to have large impact on capacity utilization and reliability of the transport mode. The process of generating a timetable is most often a manual task with limited computer aid, and is known to be a complex planning problem due to inter-train dependencies. READ MORE

7. 5. Development of methods for evaluation and optimization of chest tomosynthesis

   Author : Angelica Svalkvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : Chest tomosynthesis; Evaluation; Optimization; Simulation; Image Quality; Dosimetry; Dose reduction; Nodule simulation; Validation;

   Abstract : Tomosynthesis is a low-dose technique that has attracted increasing interest from the medical imaging community during the past decade. Tomosynthesis refers to the technique of acquiring a number of projection radiographs using extremely low exposure over a limited angular range, and using these radiographs to reconstruct slices of the imaged object.
