Tool count optimization is mandatory for an efficiently organized semiconductor factory. This paper describes an efficient heuristic to determine the tool count using the compact ...
Hierarchical production planning provides a formal bridge between long-term plans and short-term schedules. A hybrid simulation-based production planning architecture consisting o...

Computer-based business analysis relies on models, or algorithmic representations of the business process. Real-life business problems can become very complex, which creates diffi...
Discrete event simulation modelling has been extensively used in modelling complex systems. Although it offers great conceptual-modelling flexibility, it is both computationally e...
Metering flights at key points such as sector crossings is an important operational procedure in mitigating National Airspace System (NAS) traffic congestion due to high demand or...

Computer Automated Multi-Paradigm Modelling (CAMPaM) is an enabler for domain-specific analysis and design. Traffic, a new untimed visual formalism for vehicle traffic networks, i...
With the properties of autonomy, social ability, reactivity and pro-activeness, agents can be used to represent entities in distributed simulations, where fast and accurate decisi...
From the perspective of flow analysis, the more complex the project, the more wastes are prone to build up, due to the increasing number of interfaces between activities. When pro...
This paper describes a design specification for a generic, supply-chain-simulation system. The proposed simulation system is based on schedule-driven and stock-driven control meth...
