چکیده
We present a model that integrates real-time process control charting with simulation modeling to illustrate the effects and benefits of SPC charts for quality improvement efforts. The integrated model is particularly significant in addressing transition issues arising from changes in the input material. A case study based on a medical manufacturing .industry process is used to illustrate the approach.

Appointment process of open-heart surgery in Shahid Rajaei Heart Hospital using a discrete event simulation approach
Background: The waiting list is a list of selected patients in the surgical queue. If demand exceeds capacity, the waiting list grows rapidly, which may lead to unacceptable waiting for patients, especially those in need of acute medical care. Patients waiting for heart surgery are placed on the waiting list for surgery, and sometimes the waiting time is longer than patients expect. Reducing th...
متن کاملCause-selecting Charts based on Proportional Hazards and Binary Frailty Models (Quality Engineering Conference Paper)
Monitoring the reliability of products in both the manufacturing and service processes is of main concern in today’s competitive market. To this end, statistical process control has been widely used to control the reliability-related quality variables. The so-far surveillance schemes have addressed processes with independent quality characteristics. In multistage processes, however, the cascade...
متن کاملQuantitative, Scalable Discrete-Event Simulation of Metabolic Pathways
DMSS (Discrete Metabolic Simulation System) is a framework for modelling and simulating metabolic pathways. Quantitative simulation of metabolic pathways is achieved using discrete-event techniques. The approach differs from most quantitative simulators of metabolism which employ either time-differentiated functions or mathematical modelling techniques. Instead, models are constructed from bioc...

This paper, considers Network Failure Manufacturing System (NFPMS) and production control policy of unreliable multi-machines, multi-products with perishable items. The production control policy is based on the Hedging Point Policy (HPP). The important point in the simulation of this system is assumed that the customers who receive perishable item are placed in priority queue of the customers w...
