A Modeling Environment to Support Rapid Reconfiguration of Manufacturing Systems

小行星9400572 这项研究建立在以前的工作，其中涉及一个通用的，持久的面向对象的“基于模型”的系统，保持在当前状态的准确和详细的系统表示在任何时候的建设。 此基础模型特定于组织，并支持使用多种分析和优化工具跨多个问题域进行建模。 这个项目将导致概念化和开发一个新的，全面的，有凝聚力的建模环境，以帮助制造系统。 在过去，这一进程在很大程度上依赖于“切割和尝试”的“蛮力”方法。基于方法论、直觉和判断的不相交的混合物。 全面的建模环境很好地允许在任何时候考虑对系统的更改，并在整个系统分析和评估的上下文中进行评估。

9400572 Kamath The research builds upon previous work which involves the construction of a generic, persistent object oriented "based model" of a system that is maintained in a current state of accurate and detailed system representation at all times. This base model is specific to an organization, and supports modeling across several problem domains using multiple analysis and optimization tools. This project will lead to the conceptualization and development of a new, comprehensive, and cohesive modeling environment for aiding manufacturing systems. In the past, this process has depended largely upon a "brute force" approach of "cutting and trying". based upon as disjoint mixture of methodologies, intuition, and judgement. The comprehensive modeling environment well permit changes to the system to be considered at any time and evaluated within the context of a total system analysis and evaluation.
