Essays in Production, Project Planning and Scheduling
From the Preface: This festschrift is devoted to recognize the career of a man who not only witnessed the growth of operations research from its inception, but also contributed significantly to this growth. Dr. Salah E. Elmaghraby received his doctorate degree from Cornell University in 1958, and since then, his scholarly contributions have enriched the fields of production planning and scheduling and project scheduling. This collection of papers is contributed in his honor by his students, colleagues, and acquaintances. It offers a tribute to the inspiration received from his work, and from his guidance and advice over the years, and recognizes the legacy of his many contributions. Dr. Elma...
An Introduction to Stochastic Processes
This incorporation of computer use into teaching and learning stochastic processes takes an applications- and computer-oriented approach rather than a mathematically rigorous approach. Solutions Manual available to instructors upon request. 1997 edition.
Proceedings of the 33rd International MATADOR Conference
by Conference Chairman n1 It is my pleasure to introduce this volume of Proceedings for the 33 MATADOR Conference. The Proceedings include 83 refereed papers submitted from 19 countries on 4 continents. 00 The spread of papers in this volume reflects four developments since the 32 MATADOR Conference in 1997: (i) the power of information technology to integrate the management and control of manufacturing systems; (ii) international manufacturing enterprises; (iii) the use of computers to integrate different aspects of manufacturing technology; and, (iv) new manufacturing technologies. New developments in the manufacturing systems area are globalisation and the use of the Web to achieve virtua...
Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports
Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.
Industrial Control Systems
Issues such as logistics, the coordination of different teams, and automatic control of machinery become more difficult when dealing with large, complex projects. Yet all these activities have common elements and can be represented by mathematics. Linking theory to practice, Industrial Control Systems: Mathematical and Statistical Models and Techni
Project Management in Manufacturing and High Technology Operations
Project management is a system originally developed within the construction industry for controlling schedules, costs, and specifications of large multitask projects. In recent years, manufacturers have discovered that project management's time-tested techniques dovetail neatly with the current thinking on quality control and management in a highly competitive global marketplace. The system has been increasingly recognized for its suitability in the manufacturing process and is now applied in virtually every area of production. One of the foremost proponents of this trend is Adedeji Badiru, an internationally recognized authority on project management, whose books have helped thousands of co...
Smart Engineering System Design
Contains the 170 technical presentations from the November 2000 conference. The papers focus on building smart components to engineering systems currently available. The term smart in this context indicates physical systems that can interact with their environment and adapt to changes in both space and time. In addition to the technologies stated in the volume title, the papers also discuss adaptive control, pattern recognition, biology, and medicine. Topics include a neural network for segmentation of line drawings into lines of different orientations, evolutionary synthesis of logic functions using multiplexers, visualizing data association using self- organizing feature maps, a fuzzy knowledge model for estimating the depth of anesthesia, prediction of welding droplet release using time series data mining, and critical dimension control in semiconductor manufacturing.
