A Thesaurus-guided Framework for Visualization of Unstructured Manufacturing Capability Data

August 31, 2017

Author(s)

Farhad Ameri, William Z. Bernstein

Manufacturing companies advertise their manufacturing capabilities and services on their company website using natural language text. The unstructured capability data published on the web is a rich source of formal and informal manufacturing terms and

Identifying High Resource Consumption Supply Chain Points: A Case Study in Automobile Production

June 26, 2017

Author(s)

Douglas Thomas, Anand M. Kandaswamy, Joshua D. Kneifel

The Pareto principle posits that roughly 80 % of a problem is due to 20 % of the causes, allowing for the targeting of specific efficiency solutions. This paper examines whether the resources used in production are consistent with this principle and then

Patterns for modeling operational control of discrete event logistics systems (DELS)

March 24, 2017

Author(s)

Timothy A. Sprock

Designing smart operational control systems for Discrete Event Logistics Systems (DELS) requires a standard description of control behaviors executed at the operational management level of DELS control. In this paper, we propose a set of patterns for

TOWARDS BUSINESS PROCESS CATALOG FOR CLOUD-ENABLED SERVICE-ORIENTED ARCHITECTURES

May 31, 2016

Author(s)

Nenad Ivezic, Miroslav Ljubicic, Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Conrad Leiva, Scott Nieman, Zoran Marjanovic

Advances in cloud-enabled service-oriented architectures have caused a resurgence of industry interest in business process catalog as a vehicle for establishing shared references for collaborative business processes. With this paper, we start to explore

Hardware Security to Mitigate Threats to Networked More-Than-Moore Sensors

May 18, 2016

Author(s)

Yaw S. Obeng

Networked sensors (a. k. a., Internet of Things (IoT)) represents a new era in the evolution of telecommunications made possible by the reduced cost of performance in electronic devices. This is the era where even the most mundane items are connected to

Mitigating Ingredient Variability Risks with Smart Manufacturing

February 18, 2016

Author(s)

Frank H. Riddick, Evan K. Wallace, Jim Davis

Managing the design of products and the efficient execution of the manufacturing processes needed to produce them is an endeavor fraught with all manner of risks for manufacturing enterprises large and small. In certain industries, such as the food

Tracking Industry Operations Activity: A Case Study of US Automotive Manufacturing

December 14, 2015

Author(s)

Douglas Thomas, Anand M. Kandaswamy

Private firms, driven by competition, frequently achieve advances in efficiency on their own accord; however, there are often barriers to advancement that surpass the ability of any single firm. Additionally, competition, lack of communication, and other

A Formal Process for Community-based Reference Model Evolution for Smart Manufacturing Systems

September 6, 2015

Author(s)

Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, Farhad Ameri

Service-oriented manufacturing systems need to be supported by formal reference models for effective service description, discovery, and composition. A reference model should evolve continuously throughout its lifecycle to respond to changing requirements

Towards Ontology Design Patterns for Domain-Specific Ontology: A Manufacturing Service Capability Information Perspective

May 21, 2015

Author(s)

Marko Vujasinovic, Nenad Ivezic, Boonserm Kulvatunyou

Distributed manufacturing requires an agile supply chain which reduces time to market and responds efficiently to changes. Our research aims to enable agile supply chain by enabling efficient supply chain assemblies and reconfigurations. A key enabling

Using Legacy Modeling Artifacts in Supply Chain Logistics Simulation

December 12, 2013

Author(s)

Peter O. Denno, Terry Harrison

We investigate the feasibility, and the potential advantages and pitfalls of using modeling languages such as the Unified Modeling Language (UML), and the Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) to prepare models for discrete event simulation of supply

A Consilience-based Approach to Engineering Services in Global Supply Chains

September 12, 2013

Author(s)

Albert W. Jones

Technology life cycles are becoming shorter as is the time for those technologies to become ubiquitous in the society. The Industrial Revolution took about 150 years; but the computer revo-lution took only 50 years. Cell phones, which hit the market in the

Use Case Analysis for Standard Manufacturing Service Capability Model

September 12, 2013

Author(s)

Yunsu Lee, Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Marko Vujasinovic, Nenad Ivezic

To efficiently assemble manufacturing supply chains, manufacturers need to provide precise and easily accessible their manufacturing service capability (MSC) information described in the form of MSC descriptions. However, a number of challenges exist in

An Analysis of OWL-based Semantic Mediation Approaches to Enhance Manufacturing Service Capability Models

May 16, 2013

Author(s)

Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, Jun H. Shin, Yunsu Lee

Manufacturers require timely and precise information about available manufacturing services to assemble optimal supply chains. Currently, multiple communities develop and use proprietary, ad-hoc manufacturing service models to share information about
