Abstract:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A revolution has occurred over the past hundred years in the variety of products available to improve our personal and professional lives. While scientific discoveries enabled design engineers to conceptualize these products, it has been the innovations in operational methodologies that have made these products widely available and affordable to an increasing number of individuals. A systems perspective and analytical models powered by the availability of data have been key drivers of reducing waste, cost and time in operations while increasing flexibility and quality. We begin this talk with some of the key principles we have discovered for effective operations management to improve operational performance. We then address remaining opportunities for production systems researchers. Focus is placed on constructing more comprehensive and realistic data-driven models for decision making, from the strategic view of the entire supply network down to real-time dynamic control at the individual and equipment level. The presentation will conclude with a computationally efficient multi-level modeling approach that integrates capacity planning and detailed scheduling for effective management in a semiconductor assembly and test manufacturing environment.<\/p>\n

Diversity Realization for Innovative Enterprise Optimization<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/strong> <\/span>Increased diversification of the work place entails a major shift in the relative importance of productivity and competiveness for the Manufacturing Industry. The complexity of tasks in Operations Management requires a Diverse Innovative Talent Development Environment to be an Industry Leader.<\/p>\n

The workforce is changing from individual specialists, focused on complex design\/fabrication operations, to diverse knowledge workers, optimizing available digital technologies for all production processes. This transformation enables companies to evaluate the best value-added opportunities. To survive, Manufacturing Companies must leverage Diverse, Global and Digital resources. Manufacturing must also become more flexible, interactive and connected to maximize the value of its capital and people, optimizing lifecycle processes, from planning and development through manufacturing and support. Manufacturing needs this influx to attract and retain the best global diverse workforce. All great companies of the future must embrace true diversity, not just a policy to satisfy the public, but truly and deeply believe that diversity is the key for the future and the success of their organizations.<\/p>\n

This presentation addresses the key Elements for Diversity and Digitalization in a DER\/MOM Enterprise. They add knowledge, skill and value to Manufacturing Operations. Specific examples of successful implementations and lessons learned will also be discussed.<\/p>\n
