چکیده

We imagine a future in which geographically distributed engineers collaboratively develop, build, and test solutions to design-manufacture problems encountered in the product realization process. In this context, we want to provide a foundation to support the realization of industrial products for a global marketplace through distributed design and manufacture. Specifically, we want to provide a platformindependent framework to integrate distributed and heterogeneous software resources to support the computationally intensive activities in the product realization process, anchored in the philosophy of decision-based design. In this paper, we present a prototype platform-independent framework based on an experimental version, called P2, of the Sandia Product Realization Environment (PRE). We describe the implementation of this framework to design and prototype gear transmissions using commonly available software assets.

An Adaptable Service-Based Framework for Distributed Product Realization

In this chapter, we propose a service-based engineering framework to support distributed product realization. Adaptability is the key strength of this framework, which arises from an appropriate balance between ease of use of the framework and the flexibility for reconfiguration. Standardization of the interfaces between services permits communication between diverse software agents and relieve...

Towards the Realization of an Integrated Decision Support Environment for Organizational Decision Making

Traditional decision support systems are based on the paradigm of a single decision maker working at a stand-alone computer or terminal who has a specific decision to make with a specific goal in mind. Organizational decision support systems aim to support decision makers at all levels of an organization (from executive, middle management managers to operators), who have a variety of decisions ...

A credit period contract towards coordination of pharmaceutical supply chain:The case of inventory-level-dependent demand

This paper considers a two stages pharmaceutical supply chain (PSC) consisting of a pharmaceutical manufacturer (pharma-manufacturer) that supplies one type of pharmaceutical product to a pharma-retailer. The customer demand rate for the pharmaceutical product is dependent on the pharma-retailer’s current-inventory level. The pharma-retailer determines the order quantity ( ) value as decision v...
