- Visual Modeling of Business Problems: Workflow and Patterns
- Computer-based business analysis relies on models, or algorithmic representations of the business process. Real-life business problems can become very complex, which creates difficulties in generation, analysis, testing, and the actual use of the models. The paper discusses a proposed solution: the visual modeling workflow. A diagram or a group of...

- Modeling Tool Failures in Semiconductor Fab Simulation
- This research investigates how well Weibull, Gamma, and special bimodal distribution are suited as an alternative to the exponential distribution approach in the stochastic modeling of machine downtimes and times between failures. It also discusses the question whether sampling shop-floor data should not only include first order statistics, but also...

- Module-Based Modeling of Flow-Type Multistage Manufacturing Systems Adopting Dual-Card Kanban System
- A systematic procedure of module-based modeling is designed and proposed to develop a simulation of any flow type multistage manufacturing system adopting especially the dual-card Kanban system. First, functional analysis is performed to present kanban flows exactly in the same fashion in a simulation model as they are actually appeared...
