A Practical Agent-Based Approach for Pattern Layout Design
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper explores and discusses the application of Software Agent in pattern layout design. First we introduce Pattern Decomposition Representation Model (PDM). By combining Agent technology with the PDM, we also propose and analyze an Agent-Based Pattern Design Model (ABPDM) and present the implementation of the Agents and their cooperation mechanism. Results show that ABPDM is an effective approach for the design of serial and regular pattern.

This paper discusses the simulation study carried out for proposing one-piece lean line layout with features of Lean Manufacturing. The lean initiatives that can be addressed are, introducing Kanban replenishment sys-tem, better work-in-process, changing the layout, visual management techniques, standardized work for the re-duction of cycle time, number of workers, number of setups. To improve ...
متن کاملErgonomics and simulation-based approach in improving facility layout
The use of the simulation-based technique in facility layout has been a choice in the industry due to its convenience and efficient generation of results. Nevertheless, the solutions generated are not capable of addressing delays due to worker’s health and safety which significantly impact overall operational efficiency. It is, therefore, critical to incorporate ergonomics in facility design. I...
متن کاملMachine Reliability in a Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System: A Comprehensive Approach to a Cell Layout Problem
The fundamental function of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is based on definition and recognition of a type of similarity among parts that should be produced in a planning period. Cell formation (CF) and cell layout design are two important steps in implementation of the CMS. This paper represents a new nonlinear mathematical programming model for dynamic cell formation that employs the ...

This paper primarily presents a comprehensive dynamic layout design model which integrates layout and transportation system design via considering more realistic assumptions, such as taking account of fixed-position departments and distance between departments that endanger each other. In addition, specific criteria such as capacity, cost and reliability of facilities are considered in transpor...
متن کاملSuggestion Pattern for Task-Based Curriculum design in Nursing Master’s Degree according to Aker
Introduction: The assignment-based approach is an educational strategy that emphasizes learning by doing tasks. In this approach, the learner learns how to act in different situations, and this approach teaches skills that are similar to the tasks that the learner encounters in the real world and in practice. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design an optimal assignment-based curricu...
