Structure and architecture of manufacturing systems
Optimization of process plans and schedules
Modeling of social systems●Outline of Seminar for Graduate Students
Manufacturing of industrial products is one of key activity to sustain our social systems. It is important tounderstand both structure and architecture of the systems in order to maintain and improve their performance. In
the seminar, the theoretical and mathematical approaches are adopted to construct ideal manufacturing systems
for the near future society.
In the master course, fundamental techniques such as mathematical programming are studied to examine theperformance of the modern manufacturing systems. Modelling and evaluations are main issues in the seminar.
In the doctoral course, A new production model is to be constructed in order to propose an originalframework for the next generation of manufacturing systems. The validations and verification of the proposedsystems are required to show the originality. An expansion to manage the social system is also one of theimportant issues in the Seminar.
