    摘要: A system and method for calibrating an inventory planning model in a parts supply chain. The inventory planning model is determined based on certain input. A performance monitor measures the parts supply chain and provides performance metrics. The movement of parts through the parts supply chain is also monitored by a supply chain visibility system that keeps track of actual supply chain conditions. Both information on the actual supply chain conditions and the performance metrics is sent to a feedback filter that formats the information into an appropriate form. The feedback from the feedback filter is sent to a feedback controller. Based on the feedback information and the input, the feedback controller adjusts the input of the inventory planning model while determining how frequently the inventory planning model is calibrated and how the inventory planning model is calibrated.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and computer program products for controlling production systems. Methods include monitoring actual performance of a production system that includes a plurality of machines. The actual performance of the production system is compared to a planned level of performance of the production system. One or more short-term production constraints in the production system are identified in response to the actual performance being more than a threshold value away from the planned level of performance. A corrective action for the production system is determined to mitigate one or more of the short-term production constraints. The corrective action is applied to the production system.

    摘要: A method for managing heat energy in a metal casting plant includes executing a local control optimization model to control mass of solid metal charges to each modular melting furnace. The local control optimization model is configured to achieve a commanded total mass of molten material and coincidentally minimize waste heat for each of the modular melting furnaces. The method for managing heat energy in the metal casting plant further includes executing a system control optimization model to manage operation of a heat energy recovery system. The system control optimization model is configured to manage the operation of the heat energy recovery system including transferring the waste heat from the modular melting furnaces to a plurality of heat demand centers while minimizing total loss of the waste heat in the metal casting plant.

    摘要: A method, computer program product, and system for manufacturing portfolio flexibility planning are provided. The method includes matching production needs to manufacture a plurality of products with manufacturing capabilities of plants in a manufacturing portfolio. The method also includes developing flexibility scenarios for a manufacturing portfolio flexibility plan. The flexibility scenarios include manufacturing related products at one or more identified plants in the manufacturing portfolio. The method further includes performing statistical analysis of the flexibility scenarios, and evaluating a result of the statistical analysis to determine whether the flexibility scenarios meet a success criterion. The method additionally includes updating the manufacturing portfolio per the manufacturing portfolio flexibility plan when the flexibility scenarios meet the success criterion, and outputting the manufacturing portfolio flexibility plan.
