Bottlenecks in Production Networks: an Overview
Bottlenecks, the key ingredients for improving the performances of the production networks, have been profoundly studied during the last decade. Yet, because of the complexity of the research results, there is still a significant gap between theory and practice. In this paper, we review various bottleneck definitions, detection methods and the asymptotic results and provide a practical guidance...
متن کاملFill-Rate Bottlenecks in Production-Inventory Networks
The bottleneck in a production-inventory network is commonly taken to be the facility that most limits flow through the network and thus the most highly utilized facility. A further connotation of “bottleneck,” however, is the facility that most constrains system-wide performance or the facility at which additional resources would have the greatest impact. Adopting this broader sense of the ter...
متن کاملBottlenecks in Markovian Queueing Networks
We will consider the problem of identifying regions of congestion in closed queueing networks with state-dependent service rates. A particular queue will be called a bottleneck if the number of customers in that queue grows without bound as the total number of customers in the network becomes large. We will review methods for identifying potential bottlenecks, with a view to controlling congest...
متن کاملAn Overview of Group Key Management Issues in IEEE 802.16e Networks
The computer industry has defined the IEEE 802.16 family of standards that will enable mobile devices to access a broadband network as an alternative to digital subscriber line technology. As the mobile devices join and leave a network, security measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the network against unauthorized usage by encryption and group key management. IEEE 802.16e uses Multica...
متن کاملAdvances and bottlenecks in microbial hydrogen production
Biological production of hydrogen is poised to become a significant player in the future energy mix. This review highlights recent advances and bottlenecks in various approaches to biohydrogen processes, often in concert with management of organic wastes or waste CO2 . Some key bottlenecks are highlighted in terms of the overall energy balance of the process and highlighting the need for econom...
