This paper presents the application of real-time simulation to assign due dates on logistic-manufacturing networks. Information from the manufacturing, transportation, and supplie...
There is far less literature on passive sensor systems for tracking intermittently emitting targets than for tracking continuously emitting ones. A methodology for evaluating thes...
Active and cooperative learning methods represent a paradigm shift in the delivery of engineering education. These techniques recognize that the passive model of the typical colle...
Flexible automation in the form of mobile robots holds the potential for decreasing operating costs while improving delivery performance in mid-size hospital delivery systems. Thi...
In semiconductor fabrication facilities, it can be observed an increase in work in progress (WIP) even weeks after the failure of the bottleneck workcenter. In this paper, we deve...
Many organisations have seen the use of simulation evolve, often in something of a piecemeal fashion. This may lead to some deficiencies in the way that simulation is employed. Th...
Many simulation models include elements of human decision making which present some difficulty to the simulation modeller. It is often difficult to determine how a human goes abou...
