These lecture notes are based on the subject Global Supply Chain Management of 2015-2016.
Lecture 1 focuses mainly on:
Both are approaches to to analyze and design a process.
There are different criteria to determine if a design is good or bad. A design is made in a flow diagram. These criteria are used to analyze the design. The main goal of analyzing a design, is to attain contiguous improvement.
Differences :
Simulation:
Simulation experiments many times, and tries to duplicate a real environment into its model. Mathematically, a real world situation is imaged. After wards, a conclusion is stated, and a company will decide if it will adapt to this conclusion.
Main advantages:
Main disadvantages:
Most of the large companies use this method.
To be able to understand the following topic, one must understand the following things:
Deterministic performance analysis:
There is a distinction between deterministic and stochastic determination time
In order to know the deterministic throughput time, you must know the time between the point that the customer/product enters the system, and the costumer/product is ready. Always take the average time that is needed.
Design & effective capacity:
We distinct serial and parallel processing
Parallel servers:
You must be able to find the bottleneck in a system. Bottleneck = the part of a design that makes the rest of the design slower. It is similar to the statement: a design is a strong as its weakest link.
Departure rate = number of customers/products that leave the system per hour. Depends on the bottleneck of the system.
Utilization rate & efficiency:
Effective capacity = the.....read more
