1simulation-based Optimisation of a Real World Manufacturing Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many real world manufacturing problems are too complex to be modeled analytically. The complexity of enterprise systems, the increasing needs for advanced collaboration between various systems within one institution or among many collaborating parties, and the velocity of organizational, policy, structural and market changes present nowadays challenges for the research community to develop more flexible and reliable technologies. Simulation based optimization is a very actual topic in discrete-event simulation. The paper deals with the problem of knowledge modeling within industrial enterprises in order to simulate bussines processes and support inter enterprise collaboration.

Optimisation of assembly scheduling in VCIM systems using genetic algorithm
Assembly plays an important role in any production system as it constitutes a significant portion of the lead time and cost of a product. Virtual computer-integrated manufacturing (VCIM) system is a modern production system being conceptually developed to extend the application of traditional computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) system to global level. Assembly scheduling in VCIM systems is ...

متن کاملSimulation-based optimisation using local search and neural network metamodels
This paper presents a new algorithm for enhancing the efficiency of simulation-based optimisation using local search and neural network metamodels. The local search strategy is based on steepest ascent Hill Climbing. In contrast to many other approaches that use a metamodel for simulation optimisation, this algorithm alternates between the metamodel and its underlying simulation model, rather t...
