The aim of manufacturing scheduling is the efficient allocation of machines and other resources to jobs, or operations within jobs, and the subsequent time phasing of these jobs on individual machines. Therefore, the scheduling of production processes of a distributed cellular manufacturing enterprise is one of the significant tasks to be performed to achieve competitive production, which means, e.g., to delive...
Today, competitive pressures require companies to be very fast in introducing new products, to have short production lead times to manufacture and deliver products to customers and to be permanently aligned with the market. Product life-cycles tend to shorten. Even the dynamically reconfigurable global networked structures corresponding to the recent approach of the Agile/ Virtual Enterprise (A/VE) organization...
This paper proposes a new integrated architecture for advanced manufacturing management with a Ubiquitous Management System (UMS) and a collection of adequate features to sustain it, where pragmatics on collaboration mechanisms prevails. The Market-of-Resources repository and its advanced brokering process will enable reliable interoperability, services dynamic packages and reconfiguration, as well as the (co-)...
Distributed scheduling problems are challenging tasks to researchers and practitioners that have been gaining increasing popularity over the years. This is partly attributed to the fact that multi-site production and networked manufacturing environments are increasing as a consequence of globalisation. In this paper a system for technologies integration for supporting distributed scheduling in a Virtual Enterpr...
The Competition in the global economy is intensifying the implementation of web-based collaboration platforms to improve the personalized interaction between clients and producers. Agility in the order-production-delivery cycle is a key element for industrial enterprises as a means to meet the requirements of this paradigm. Agile/Virtual Enterprise based scenarios are characterized by large product variety depe...
Company’s importance and competitiveness is no longer just to enable automatic processes but also to fulfill needs of humans as we nowadays also live concerned with enjoyment and pleasure, in order to complement people's lives. Built from the decision to bring to market a fully customized product to the customer comes the Fragus Company. This company enables services of Personal Chef and Bartender aiming to bri...
This paper provides an alternative approach for project management through a web-based decision support system. This contribution integrates XML-based web services and decision support tools through a proposed platform, which is being developed for supporting large scale projects management, in order to enable to more easily work on projects, integrating many and complex tasks to be planned and controlled.; The...
The aim of this paper is to present a cloudlet architecture for dashboard in Cloud and Ubiquitous Manufacturing. In practice means that, with Cloud Computing adoption, Manufacturing requires management applications where ubiquity and effectiveness are enabled. If ubiquity and resources scalability, availability and capacity can be well supported by cloud, pragmatics instruments are required to support effective...
