CAREER: Integrated Production System Operations and Facility Layout Decisions

梅勒9623605 这个职业奖项目提出了一个研究和教育计划，由生产系统操作和设施布局决策的整合驱动。我们的目标是开发一个集成的布局模型，可用于评估生产系统操作的变化如何影响设施布局。其功能包括突出显示从生产运营角度来看何时布局更改在经济上可行的能力。 该项目的影响包括设施布局决策的改进研究模型，新的案例研究和教学目的的教育算法，以及研究生的工程实习。项目目标是在大量的工业互动和支持下实现的。

Meller 9623605 This Career Award project presents a research and education plan driven by the integration of production system operations and facility layout decisions. The objective is the development of an integrated layout model that can be used to evaluate how changes in production system operations impact the facility layout. Features include the ability to highlight when changes to a layout will be economically feasible from a production operations perspective. Impacts of the project include an improved research model for facility layout decisions, new case-studies and educational algorithms for instructional purposes, and engineering internships for graduate students. Project objectives are pursued with substantial industrial interaction and support.
