Nowadays, industrials are seeking for models and methods that are not only able to provide efficient overall production performance, but also for reactive systems facing a growing set of unpredicted events. One important research activity in that field focuses on holonic/multi-agent control systems that couple predictive/proactive and reactive mechanisms into agents/holons. Meanwhile, not enough attention...
Short presentation: A main goal of managers in industry consists to solve the design of their production control systems in an optimal way. For this, production control systems must have a flexible and optimal design in order to reduce the costs while respecting constraints (delays…) and objectives (agility, quality…). In order to evaluate the new approaches or to choose a management production organization...
This session aims to discuss on various aspects of manufacturing such as: • Worker assignment problems in manufacturing systems; • Reconfigurable manufacturing systems; • Design approach; • Reconfigurable assembly system; • …
The traditional kanban system with a fixed number of cards does not work optimally in an unstable environment. In fact, kanban parameters should be adjusted to follow the variation of demand. Using a new approach with adaptive kanban, in dynamic production environments, kanban parameters are able to change with respect to demand variation, besides the ability to determine the appropriate time to use...
