Research on Process Task Customization in Service-oriented Manufacturing

A Unified RGPS-Based Approach Supporting Service-Oriented Process Customization

Cloud computing is defined as a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, ondemand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources [15]. This has created significant improvements in terms of software development. Software as a Service (SaaS) is a core objective of cloud computing, aiming to provide utility-oriented software delivery and provisioning. Increasing amounts of s...

Service Oriented Manufacturing Infrastructure

This dissertation is concerned with the design and implementation of infrastructural systems for resilient Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication in distributed Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS). For this purpose, a number of technologies are selected and applied in congruence with the principles of Smart Manufacturing. Thus, this dissertation investigates the use of Service Oriented Arc...

Flexibility to Manufacturing Process Reengineering for Mass Customization

It is a trend to implement mass customization (MC) to meet customer demands and win the global competition. With mass customization, products can be produced with low cost, high quality, and in time as mass production. To implement MC, today’s manufacturing process should be reengineered. However, it is believed that manufacturing process reengineering (MPR) is a highly risk job. A manufacturin...

Process Control and Logistics Management for Mass Customization Manufacturing

The emphasis on increasing product variety and individualization has created a strong demand for a new strategy of Mass Customization Manufacturing (MCM). A competitive and flexible manufacturing system must be developed to respond to small batches of customer demand. In this paper, problems of highly flexible process-control and logistics-management methodologies are addressed to meet MCM need...
