16. Discrete-event dynamic system simulation of a heterogeneous manufacturing process
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistikAbstract : A heterogeneous, discrete manufacturing line is being transformed towards a continuous process. Higher demands for efficiency and decreased flexibility of the new process requires more knowledge of the process. READ MORE

17. Optimising the Planning- and Scheduling in a Complex Production : Discrete-Event Simulation in a pharmaceutical context
University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknikAbstract : The aim of this study is to investigate the optimisation of production planning- and scheduling in a pharmaceutical facility using DES.Research questions: “How can DES be used to achieve flexibility and efficiency in a pharmaceutical facility?” and “How can DES be used to increase efficiency of the resource allocation in a pharmaceutical facility?”Methodology: This study has been compared to a deductive- and a quantitative research approach where a process simulation has been modelled.

18. A framework for enabling operators to use simulation for continuous improvement
University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, ProduktionsutvecklingAbstract : In a time where digitalization is becoming more and more necessary to work with, tools such as simulation is becoming more of a standard to be able to make decisions made on facts. Within previous research there is a gap in the research, as the factors enabling operators to use simulation is an unexplored topic. READ MORE

19. Active Learning for Solving Expensive Optimization Problems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Many practical engineering and computer science problems can be translated into a global otimization problem where the task is to find the best (optimal) vector 𝒙𝒙∗ that gives the smallest possible function value 𝑓𝑓 = 𝑓𝑓(𝒙𝒙∗) for some function 𝑓𝑓() of interest. Often the function 𝑓𝑓() is expensive in the sense that it cannot be easily evaluated computationally or experimentally in terms of time and/or resources required. READ MORE

20. Optimisation through automation : Implications and opportunities of bin picking in manufacturing
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomiAbstract : Background Manufacturers have to adopt modern technologies to compete at the top of their field. However, adopting new technologies can be expensive and difficult to validate prior to implementation. One technology that has difficulties receiving a wider application is bin picking. READ MORE
