The major thrust of this research is to explore the argument and generic concept of applying concurrent engineering concepts to the design of advanced manufacturing systems. The central theme is threefold: (1) to identify the framework and develop implementation guidelines necessary for robust manufacturing system design by concurrently considering critical issues including maintainability, reliability, decomposability, operation, and management; (2) to substantiate the "design for operation and management" concept through development and extensive experimentations of two realistic operation and planning models for flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), namely, the Part-Selection Model and the Tool Assignment Model; and (3) to lay solid groundwork for further research into the tools and modules to realize design for maintainability, reliability and decomposability. Advanced manufacturing technology, such as flexible manufacturing, is still a very expensive and high risk solution which demands an extremely customized approach to system design and configuration. It is not what an FMS user has purchased but how the FMS user will operate it in an overall and totally integrated way that makes the effective use of the new technology. The PI's industrial experience has provided a vivid testimony for the above statement. The plausible remedy is to revolutionize the typical process of acquiring a manufacturing system where the system designer (FMS supplier) passes down whatever is done to the operation personnel and wishing that the FMS will live up to the performance level as required by the management.

本研究的主要目的是探讨 和通用概念的应用并行工程的概念， 先进制造系统的设计。 中心主题 三是：（1）确定框架， 稳健制造系统所需的实施指引 同时考虑关键问题，包括 可维护性、可靠性、可分解性、操作性和 （2）使“运营设计和 管理”理念通过发展和广泛 两个现实的操作和规划模型的实验， 柔性制造系统（FMS），即零件选择 模型和工具分配模型;以及（3）奠定坚实的基础 为进一步研究工具和模块奠定基础， 实现可维护性、可靠性和 可分解性 先进的制造技术，如柔性 制造业，仍然是一个非常昂贵和高风险的解决方案， 这需要一种非常定制的系统设计方法， 配置. 这不是FMS用户购买了什么，而是如何购买 FMS用户将以一种全面的、完全集成的方式来操作它 有效利用新技术的方法。 PI的 工业实践为上述问题提供了生动的证明 声明 似乎可行的补救办法是彻底改变典型的 获取制造系统的过程，其中该系统 设计师（FMS供应商）将所做的一切传递给 操作人员，并希望FMS将不辜负 管理层要求的业绩水平。
