While numerous researchers have proposed dierent models to forecast trial sales for new products, there is little systematic understanding about which of these models works best, and under what circumstances these ®ndings change. In this... more
Due to increased competition, semiconductor manufacturing has received considerable research attention over the last few decades. As a result, several optimisation and heuristic solution procedures are available to solve a variety of... more
The enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions that gained acceptance in industries world over as they represent a proven, comprehensive, software backbone for achieving excellence in key business areas, have moved forward today to... more
For many researchers, the subject Production and Control Planning seems to be dominated or outdated. But, when we are talking about small, or medium, manufacturing enterprises (SME's), we can see that there are a lot of things to do yet.... more
The design and management of the manufacturing network for a firm is an important factor for its competitive position. By manufacturing network we mean the plant or plants of a manufacturing firm and the relationships with external... more
Secondary manufacturers in the forest products industry face a complex production planning process. Linear programming (LP)-based applications have addressed this production planning issue. However, most models have been developed for a... more
This paper presents results from a case study in predictive maintenance at a distribution warehouse. A simulation model was built with ARENA 5.0 for integrating predictive maintenance strategies with production planning strategies, for a... more
The need for effective planning and management techniques motivates the integration between different operations management areas. These areas include the production planning and operations scheduling which is one of the most challenging... more
The Capacitated Lot Sizing Problem (CLSP) consists of planning the lot sizes of multiple items over a planning horizon with the objective of minimizing setup and inventory holding costs. In each period that an item is produced a setup... more
Push/pull production mode used in CIMS and its application in re"nery are mainly discussed in this paper. Firstly, we discuss about push/pull production mode used in CIMS, where manufacturing system is introduced, push/pull combined... more
Because of the booming economy, interest in China has soared in recent years. The government has decided to privatize many state-owned enterprises (SOEs), so foreigners can much more easily invest in existing firms than ever before. Is it... more
The important practical problem of planning the production of large assemblies employing an MRP-based system is considered. The objective is to produce products on-time, with minimal cycle time and low work-in-process costs. The approach... more
This paper reports results of research into the definition of requirements for new consumer products––specifically, electro-mechanical products. The research dealt with the derivation of design requirements that are demonstrably aligned... more
Purpose -The main purpose of this paper is to address the impact of product design changes on supply chain risk, and to identify the supply chain risk dimensions in the Chinese special-purpose vehicle (SPV) industry in the context of... more
Background and justification Dessert banana and plantain (Musa sp.) are the fourth most important staple food crops in the world after rice, wheat and maize [1]. Dessert banana in particular is a commercially important crop in the global... more
Implementation of Human-centred Design methods in the Fuzzy Front-End is not likely to lead to diversification in educational product planning exercises, where time lines are short and executors lack experience. Companies, interested to... more
This paper presents a review of mathematical programming models for supply chain production and transport planning. The purpose of this review is to identify current and future research in this field and to propose a taxonomy framework... more
While data mining has been widely used in many fields, little research has been done on its applications to sizing systems for the manufacturing of garments. The goal of this study was to establish systems for using a decision tree... more
The management of food distribution networks is receiving more and more attention, both in practice and in the scientific literature. In this paper, we review quantitative operations management approaches to food distribution management,... more
The present paper aims to propose an integrated framework, based on two levels, able to characterise collaborative relation between two or more partners in a Supply Chain, evaluating their related performances. In the first level, related... more
Prototyping of embedded hardware/software systems is important, because it shortens the path from specification to the final product. Prototypes play a major role in decision making, concept and design validation, feature and limit... more
The resource-constrained production planning problem in semicontinuous multiproduct food industries is addressed. In particular, the case of yogurt production, a representative food process, in a real-life dairy facility is studied in... more
A medium sized UK based academic publishers own a subsidiary printing business. Presently the Academic Printers (AP) is experiencing productions line flow problems reducing the efficiency of the operation. Most of the problems are... more
Production engineers are urged to take ergonomic considerations into account when planning for production. However, the means to do so are often inadequate with respect to training as well as support. There is a lack of methods to... more
Engineer-to-order (ETO) companies, operating in the machinery-building industry. The study investigates the needs and requirements of such companies in terms of software support for governing the businesses, with particular emphasis on... more
In facing the problem of building a complex yet fast and resource efficient Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) or Extended Resource Planning (XRP) system the first obstacle is the creation of a Bill of Materials (BoM) algorithm, which is... more
Organisations willing to succeed in global competition have to integrate their internal and external processes. This especially includes planning and production control (PPC) processes. Optimised allocation of the production resources and... more
The purpose of this paper is to ask the questiondoes mass customization really hold the key to customer value? It is argued that while mass customization can, and often does, increase the value of an offering, it is not always the case.... more

Computer simulations are used to represent the essential features of a real system so that analyzers can test their design skills in a convenient and safe environment. Organizations throughout the world are quickly moving to adopt process... more
The world needs to reduce its dependency on fossil fuel (non-renewable energy) as it is fast depleting and due to the harmful impact to the environment – most notably ‘Climate Change’. Therefore, Green Technology now becomes an even... more
Production monitoring is an important task for proper production planning. For this task the information that a system of this nature can possibly gather assumes significant importance. Among all the information available during... more
This paper presents a case study of an implementation of a new method for Production Leveling designed for batch production. It includes prioritizing criteria of products and level production plan. Moreover, it was applied on a subsidiary... more
