Object oriented modelling of product oriented manufacturing systems

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Models are essential for studying the behaviour, design and operation of manufacturing systems. Many approaches, tools and methods can be used for developing such models. An analysis and discussion of the characteristics, possibilities and implementation aspects of the Object Oriented (OO) approach to the modelling of cellular manufacturing systems are presented. One particular set of such cellular systems, namely the product oriented manufacturing systems (POMS) is emphasised. It is argued that characteristics such as easiness of model developing and understanding, fast and simple testing and reusing of model components act in favour of the OO approach to modelling manufacturing systems in general, and POMS systems in particular.
