Manufacturing Logistics Workshop: Bridging the Gap Between Theory and Practice; Fall 1996; Bethlehem, PA

9529114吴这个项目的目标是在制造物流领域组织一个为期两天的研讨会，将来自工业、大学和软件开发公司的从业者和研究人员聚集在一起。研讨会的重点是制定制造物流的产学联合研究议程，以弥合生产计划、调度、信息和材料管理以及车间监控等领域的理论和实践之间的差距。研讨会将促进对行业紧迫问题的辩论和讨论，并促进研究人员、从业者和软件开发人员之间广泛的互动和未来的合作。讲习班的结果将通过几个已公布的渠道传播。目前制造业物流的研究与实践之间存在着一定的差距。造成这种差距的一个主要原因是这三个群体之间缺乏沟通。一个将应用、开发和研究领域的人员聚集在一起的研讨会将促进这些小组之间的交流。加强沟通和思想交流将促进制造物流的研究和应用。缩小理论与应用之间的差距显然将有利于美国的制造业。学生和教职员工都将从这种合作中受益，建立更真实地反映行业所经历的物流问题的模型。

9529114 Wu The objective of this project is to organize a two-day workshop in the area of manufacturing logistics to bring together practitioners and researchers from industry, universities, and software development firms. The focus of the workshop is to develop a joint industry-university research agenda in manufacturing logistics so as to bridge the gap between theory and practice in areas such as production planning, scheduling, information and material management, and shop floor monitoring and control. The workshop will foster debate and discussion of pressing issues in industry, and cultivate a wide spectrum of interactions and future collaboration between researchers, practitioners, and software developers. The results of the workshop will be disseminated through several published channels. A gap currently exists between the researcher and practice of manufacturing logistics. one main reason for the gap is the lack of communication between these three groups. A workshop which brings people from the application, development, and research domain will foster communication between these groups. Improved communication and the exchange of ideas will enhance research and application of manufacturing logistics. Reduction of the gap between theory and application will obviously be of benefit to manufacturing in America. Both students and faculty alike will benefit from such collaboration by building models that more truly reflect logistics problems as experienced by industry.
