Operational Report on Platforming

Products-manufacturing systems Co-platforming

A new Co-platforming methodology is introduced for mapping product features platform and corresponding manufacturing system machines platform. A cluster of platform and non-platform system machines are derived using matrix formulation and manipulation. The objective of Coplatforming is to establish the mapping between platforms of products and manufacturing machines for use in synthesizing syst...

Solution of the Train Platforming Problem

In this paper we study a general formulation of the train platforming problem, which contains as special cases all the versions previously considered in the literature as well as a case study from the Italian Infrastructure manager that we addressed. In particular, motivated by our case study, we consider a general quadratic objective function, and propose a new way to linearize it by using a s...

Operational characterization of scattered MCFLs -- Technical Report

We give a Kleene-type operational characterization of Muller context-free languages (MCFLs) of well-ordered and scattered words.

Progress Report Operational Analysis of Queueing Phenomena

·2· Introduction Operational analysts is a new method of analyzing queueing phenomena, especially the phenomena encountered by analysts of computer system performance. Operational analysis deals with data collected from a system rather than the system itself.. The data is a "behavior sequence"-an event trace of system states during an observa-lion period. Operational variables denote quantities...
