  1. 16. 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 teknik

    Author : Johan Börjesson; Paulina Boutros; [2022]
    Keywords : DES; Optimisation; Pharmaceutical industry; Product mix; Production planning- and scheduling; Resource allocation; Simulation.; DES; Läkemedelsindustrin; Optimering; Produkt mix; Produktionsplanering- och schemaläggning; Resursfördelning; Simulering;

    Abstract : 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.

  2. 17. A framework for enabling operators to use simulation for continuous improvement

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Produktionsutveckling

    Author : Christian Junior Alcayaga; Jakob Hoffsten; [2022]
    Keywords : Discrete event simulation; Simulation; Continuous improvement; Operators;

    Abstract : 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

  3. 18. Active Learning for Solving Expensive Optimization Problems

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Siwei Fu; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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

  4. 19. Optimisation through automation : Implications and opportunities of bin picking in manufacturing

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

    Author : Enzo Seiholm; Jesper Sundius; [2022]
    Keywords : Industry 4.0; Bin picking; Discrete event simulation; KPI; Utility function;

    Abstract : 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

  5. 20. High-Level Simulator of Federation Orchestration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Toon Keymeulen; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The development of a new wireless access infrastructure can introduce some exciting new applications that are impossible to deploy with the current generation communication infrastructure. Therefore the REINDEER project presents a new distributed cell-free network infrastructure called RW, that creates favourable propagation and antenna array interaction. READ MORE
