Modeling and Performance Optimization of a Distributed Production System
نویسندگان
چکیده
An approach, based on queuing modeling and simulation, to resource allocation for a distributed production system is examined in the paper. The problem is formulated as an objective function minimization for a queuing network. The optimization is based on the combination of analytical modeling and simulation. The analytical model is used for primary evaluation and branching for the optimization algorithm. The simulation is used for validation of analytical results and algorithm stop decision.

متن کاملCold standby redundancy optimization for nonrepairable series-parallel systems: Erlang time to failure distribution
In modeling a cold standby redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with imperfect switching mechanism, deriving a closed form version of a system reliability is too difficult. A convenient lower bound on system reliability is proposed and this approximation is widely used as a part of objective function for a system reliability maximization problem in the literature. Considering this lower bound do...
