Knowledge-based support for simulation analysis of manufacturing cells

A New Simulation Optimisation System for the Parameters of a Machine Cell Simulation Model

“…In addition, the real aim of simulation optimisation is to provide users with decisions. Therefore, a good idea is to integrate simulation and optimisation with a decision system to analyse a whole system [26,27]. The above system is just a submodule of an intelligent …”

Application of axiomatic design and TOPSIS methodologies under fuzzy environment for proposing competitive strategies on Turkish container ports in maritime transportation network

“…The information axiom (IA) is a conventional method and facilitates the selection of proper alternative that has minimum information content. In the literature, AD methodology is used to design products, design systems, design software, and make a decision (Albano & Suh, 1994;Babic, 1999;Brunner & Starkl, 2004;Chen, Chen, & Lin, 2001;Durmusoglu & Kulak, 2008;Hirani & Suh, 2005;Jang, Yang, Song, Yeun, & Do, 2002;Kim, Suh, & Kim, 1991;Suh, Cochran, & Paulo, 1998;Thielman, Ge, Wu, & Parme, 2005).

Approaches to product variety management assuming configuration conflict problem

“…Later, it was shown that Axiomatic design framework can be effectively applied not only to design of products but also to engineering and non-engineering problems [14]. Application areas of AD such as manufacturing [15], software development [16] and even decision making [17] are very often bringing new challenges. Togay et al [18] proposed a V-Model based on the AD to address component selection issues.…”
