“…Information Axiom provides a new decision making tool when there is a number of alternatives. Different applications of AD such as product design [27,32], system design [2,28], manufacturing system design [29], office cells design [19], software design [23,32] and decision making [1,15,17,18] can be found in literature. Kulak et al [20] present a recent review considering the applications of AD in different areas.…”

Abstract. In recent years, Axiomatic Design (AD) has been widely used as a multi criteria decision making approach. AD approach compares the design objects and system capabilities in a framework and then selects the best alternative based on these comparisons. Some researchers then include fuzziness in the AD approach which helps to evaluate alternatives in fuzzy environments. The main advantage of fuzzy AD approach is the ability to evaluate both crisp and fuzzy values at the same time during decision process. However, these approaches are not appropriate for hierarchical decision problems. Therefore, these are extended to solve the hierarchical decision problems and Hierarchical Fuzzy Axiomatic Design Approach (HFAD) is presented. In this study, HFAD is extended to include risk factors for the first time in literature and a new approach called RFAD is proposed. Moreover, the application of the new approach is shown on a real world supplier selection problem and the results are compared to the other widely used decision making approaches in literature.

“…An example is found in (Babic, 1999) where the use of AD provides the conceptual frame and methodology for FMS design and the criteria for its evaluation. Other interesting work using AD can be found in (Farid, 2015) proposing a formulation to measure the static resilience of a system and in (Farid and Ribeiro, 2014) where a multi-agent system reference architecture for RMS is quantitatively formalized.…”

Purpose This paper aims to provide a method and decision support tool to enhance swift reconfiguration of Plug&Produce (P&P) systems in the presence of continuously changing production orders. Design/methodology/approach The paper reviews different production scenarios and system design and configuration methods and more particularly specifies the need of decision support tools for P&P systems that integrate configuration and planning activities. This problem is then addressed by proposing a method that helps reduce the solution space of the reconfiguration problem and allows the timely selection of the most promising reconfiguration alternative. Findings The proposed method was found to be helpful in reducing the reconfiguration alternatives that need to be considered and in selecting the most promising one for different orders. The advantages and limitations of this method are identified, and an illustrative test case of the approach is presented, corroborating the method applicability in the absence of large queues in the system. Originality/value This paper addresses a less explored domain within the P&P systems research field, which is the system reconfiguration. It proposed a method to support system validation and reconfiguration jointly with an illustrative test case. This represents an original contribution to the P&P research field, and it can have impact in improving agility and decreasing the complexity of reconfiguration activities to cope with constantly changing production orders.

The production paradigms which apply these strategies are also classified. Particular emphasis is put on the paradigm of Reconfigurable Manufacturing System (RMS). Some key issues of the RMS design are discussed, and a critical review is presented concerning the developments of RMSs. Finally, suggestions of the RMS research are made and future research directions are identified. Reconfigurable Keywords: Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMS),system architecture, system configuration, Open Architecture Control (OAC), reconfigurability, modularity IntroductionDue to excessive production capability and economic globalization, the manufacturing environment becomes turbulent and uncertain. Manufacturing enterprises are forced to reassess their production paradigms, so that a manufacturing system can be designed and operated efficient...
