presently, emerging economies are acquiring singular positions all over the world. the complexities of nowadays economy have caused international companies and investors to be of a tendency towards emerging markets for more profitability and growth. this study aims to find the relationships between firm's profitability and growth in iranian manufacturing industry consisting of tehran stock...

The major aim of this research is benchmarking Honeywell Federal Manufacturing &Technologies projects using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique and to compare the results with that of published recently in Qing Cao, James J. Hoffman Qing Cao, James J. Hoffman. (2011). A case study approach for developing a project performance evaluation system. International Journal of Project Managem...

Background: Exploring the impact of combining Industry 4.0 technologies and Lean Manufacturing tools on organizational performance has been a popular topic in recent years. Design/Methodology/Approach: We propose novel Smart Sustainable System (SSMS) to provide management insights related social impact, economic performance, environmental impact. Some called Dynamic tools, such as Value Steam M...

Lean manufacturing is a proven approach for success in manufacturing industry. However, several organisations failed in their attempt to implement lean manufacturing system. The transition to lean manufacturing requires radical change which involves a total reshaping of purpose, system and culture of the organisation. The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework that could assist a manuf...

In this research, the distributed simulation system to easily evaluate a very large manufacturing system by synchronizing several different simulators is developed. We designed the distributed simulation system using High Level Architecture(HLA) as IEEE1516 standard. A manufacturing adapter to connect manufacturing system simulators with HLA using a plug-in style is proposed. The developed dist...

Enterprise integration is mainly concerned with coordination, communication and cooperation between many concurrent business processes executed on a wide range of distributed agents (humans, applications and resources including databsase servers) in order to improve enterprise efficiency. Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is restricted to discrete manufacturing enterprises. The paper disc...

Automated software manufacturing systems increase productivity by taking care of scheduling and executing manufacturing actions. Systems such as Make have been widely used. The introduction of generators into the software development process creates new challenges due to the increased complexity of the manufacturing process. When designing a system for manufacturing software using generators, t...

The global development of the world has an adverse affect on the natural environment, such as global warming, is continuing to mount. Green manufacturing systems that focus on minimizing environmental impact of manufacturing processes and products are ever more important to sustain our future. Green manufacturing systems are slow to gain acceptance as manufacturers are focusing more on implemen...
