Even structurally simple manufacturing systems can be operationally complex. This operational complexity can be colloquially
defined as the uncertainty associated with managing the dynamic variations, in time or quantity, across information and material
flows at the manufacturing systems interface. This paper proposes a means of measuring the information demands placed on cellular
manufacturing systems, as a result of this uncertainty. A utility function for complexity is proposed according to the relationships
between the complexity and utility in a manufacturing system and the underlying trend that the system becomes more and more
complex in an everchanging environment is analyzed. This paper mathematically models the static entropy and the dynamic entropy
of cellular manufacturing systems from an information-theoretic perspective. A unique feature of this measure is that it captures,
in relative terms, the expected amount of information required to describe the state of the system. The measure provides flexibility
in the scope and detail of analysis. Finally, an example is used to demonstrate the validity of the proposed methodology. 相似文献

Computer-aided process planning (CAPP) is one of the key components in computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) environment. Fully automatic CAPP systems require information transfer between CAD/CAM systems to be mutual, dynamic, concurrent, automatic and efficient. The difficulty in achieving this is the management of the vast amount of heterogeneous data, knowledge and complicated inference processes encountered in developing automatic planning systems. The objective of the reported research is to develop a framework for modelling and managing engineering product and manufacturing capability information in an integrated feature-based CAD/knowledge-based process planning environment. The feature-based design system is developed with a commercial boundary representation (Brep) solid modeller with additional feature-modelling functions. The process planning system is developed using a knowledge-based system, which is fully integrated with the design system through an information mapping mechanism. Process planning decisions are made by searching for a match between the product requirements and the process capability of available manufacturing systems. This is achieved by invoking the rules coded in an inferencing mechanism (an inference engine). Both the underlying methodologies and the implementation aspects will be addressed in this paper. 相似文献

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is now widely used in application software development. OOP has advantages connected with handling complexity, reusability, extendability, modularity and data abstraction, enabling it to handle modern programming requirements more effectively than conventional programming methods. Successful advanced manufacturing systems demand increasing complexity, flexibility and integration between computer applications. An object-oriented approach is particularly promising for the design and development of manufacturing information systems. This paper outlines the concepts of object-oriented methods, and describes an object-oriented application development methodology for manufacturing information systems. A CASE (Computer-Aided Software Engineering) tool is used for system modelling and for direct source-code generation. A case study describing the development of a quality management information system is presented, which was implemented using a C++ development environment. Although the research described here is concerned with quality management information systems, the proposed design methodology is applicable to other areas of manufacturing, and conclusions are drawn concerning the uses of OOP in manufacturing information systems generally. 相似文献

A research programme is being undertaken with a major UK manufacturing company to develop the information systems environment on which the computer integration of the whole of the manufacturing system depends. Inevitably this programme has led to explorations of fundamental systems ideas and of the methodologies that are now emerging to support such work.In this paper two such methodologies are contrasted. In subsequent papers applications of these technologies will be demonstrated and conceptual models for the information systems environment in manufacturing engineering presented. 相似文献

The high cost and long development cycle of shop floor controls (SFC) have prevented many small, medium, and even large-size manufacturers from deploying plant-wide, real-time information systems. In order to stay competitive in a make-to-order business model, such systems are essential. In addressing the obstacles to such systems, this article proposes a formal method that ensures that a built SFC can be applicable to a plant-wide, real- time information system. By taking advantage of both the linear growth of the complexity function in a structured adaptive supervisory control model, and the real-time responses of a virtual production line based e-Manufacturing system, a formal method for creating an integration-ready structured adaptive supervisory control model (iSASC) for a discrete manufacturing system is introduced. An iSASC-based SFC prototype system was successfully tested and evaluated in an industrial site. 相似文献

Integrated Modeling Framework for Manufacturing Systems: A Unified Representation of the Physical Process and Information System 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Hee Won Kang Jong Woo Kim Sung Joo Park 《International Journal of Flexible Manufacturing Systems》1998,10(3):231-265
The task of process modeling in a manufacturing environment centers around controlling and improving the flow of materials. This flow comprises a complicated web of control and physical systems. Despite a variety of manufacturing system modeling approaches, more rigorous process modeling is required. This paper presents an integrated modeling framework for manufacturing systems (IMF-M). Conceptual modeling of physical materials flow supported by a graphical representation facilitates improvement of operations in manufacturing environments. A declarative and executable representation of control information systems helps to improve information management by managing a variety of information models with improved readability and reusability. A unified representation of the physical process and information system provides a common modeling milieu in which efforts can be coordinated among several groups working in the different domains of scheduling, shop floor and logistics control, and information system. Since the framework helps adapt to the changes of the physical process and information system affecting each other in a consistent manner, the modeling output enhances integration of the manufacturing system. 相似文献

The design and development of holonic manufacturing systems requires careful, and sometimes risky, decision making to ensure that they will successfully satisfy the demands of an ever-changing market. In this paper, the authors propose a methodology for a holonic manufacturing systems requirement analysis that is based on a virtual reality approach and aimed at assisting designers of such systems along the entire systems design and development process. Exploiting virtual reality helps the user collect valid information quickly and in a correct form by putting the user and the information support elements in direct relation with the operation of the system in a more realistic environment. A prototype software system tool is designed to realise the features outlined in each phase of the methodology. A virtual manufacturing environment for matching the physical and the information model domains is utilised to delineate the information system requirements of holonic manufacturing systems implementation. A set of rules and a knowledge base is appended to the virtual environment to remove any inconsistency that could arise between the material and the information flows during the requirement analysis. 相似文献

Due to its scale, complexity, and uncertainty of the processes, the management and control of automotive manufacturing systems have been very challenging. With the recent application of new technologies such as radio frequency identification (RFID) to manufacturing process, real-time information has become available in manufacturing systems through IT infrastructures. It is expected that RFID-based real-time information will increase timeliness and efficiency in decision making and drastically reduce uncertainty. That, in turn, will enhance both productivity and quality. This paper presents an advanced RFID application for automotive assembly processes, specifically, dynamic material dispatching (e.g., auto assembly parts). The application is uniquely advanced in that it integrates RFID technology with a real-time decision support system to ensure the accurate and efficient delivery of auto parts to mixed-product assembly lines. In this application, we have described the problem as a mixed-integer programming model, proposed a heuristic algorithm that incorporates the available RFID information, and assessed the value of RFID through a scenario-based analysis. We hope this paper may help contribute to a virtuous cycle of RFID innovation and applications in the manufacturing sector. 相似文献

This paper presents a quality management system based on Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRPII). A real-time monitoring system is used to acquire the information necessary for MRPII to drive quality management over this framework. Firstly, the concept of Total Quality Management (TQM) is overlaid on the structure of MRPII. Secondly, quality management activities in manufacturing systems are used to shape the manufacturing database concept and information models of various manufacturing activities. Finally, a complete dynamic system model setting out the architecture of a proactive resource planning environment that encapsulates quality management is derived. 相似文献

The Internet has enabled the development of applications for supporting the design and manufacturing of industrial parts and
products. Some actions have been performed by some research groups in different parts of the world aiming at conceiving product
modeling systems based on the technology of features to allow information sharing, both for the activities related to product
development and for manufacturing. This paper describes the implementation of the WebMachining system () developed in a context of e-Mfg and concurrent engineering, aimed at integrating CAD/CAPP/CAM for the remote manufacturing
of feature-based cylindrical parts with symmetrical and asymmetrical features through the Internet, using an approach based
on multi-agent systems. The information referring to the features is manipulated through a relational database management
system. The graphic user interface (GUI) is implemented in Java and HTML. In this GUI, the user inputs the information on
the design features that compose the part. Then these data are sent to the server. Since the part is cylindrical, the user
models the part in two dimensions, and it can be visualized as three-dimensional through VRML. A database was implemented
that stores the information on the product modeled by features, containing information associated with the form features,
material features, tolerance features and technological features. These combined pieces of information allow the mapping of
design features into machining features, which is fundamental for process planning. The database information is described
in this article through the IDEF1X information model. 相似文献

RFID-enhanced multi-agent based control for a machining system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Recent research on highly distributed control methods for complex systems have produced a series of philosophies based on
negotiation, that bring together process engineering with computer science. Among these control philosophies, the ones based
on multi-agent systems (MAS) have become especially relevant. Furthermore, among a number of MAS implementations, those that
use different types of agents at different conceptual/managerial levels are commonly applied. However, these MAS models have
the drawback of an excessive dependence on up-to-date information about the products and other elements that move within the
system. A new technology has come out that can help solve this problem: radio-frequency identification enhanced information
management systems (RFID-IMS). One of these is Auto-ID/EPCglobal technology. This paper shows how a MAS model can be used
for controlling a machining system incorporating RFID-IMS technology. The resulting system becomes an RFID-enhanced intelligent
manufacturing system (RFID-IMS II). 相似文献

基于信息熵的制造系统复杂性测度及其在调度中的应用 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
制造系统的复杂性是指制造系统难以被理解、描述、预测和控制的状态。从信息论角度指出制造系统的复杂度是描述制造系统的状态所预期需要的信息量。将制造系统的复杂性描述为静态和动态两种形式:静态复杂性是描述制造系统在静止状态下各制造资源根据其调度方案所预期拥有的状态所需要的信息量,动态复杂性则指描述制造系统在运行过程中各资源的实际状态所需要的信息量。应用信息论中的信息熵理论研究制造系统的复杂性测度问题,分别建立了基于信息熵的静态和动态复杂性测度模型。将上述复杂性理论应用于调度研究,提出最大可行调度时限和调度依附度两个评价调度有效性的量化指标,为调度有效性的分析、评价及改善提供了重要工具。实例研究表明所提理论和方法的有效性。 相似文献
