摘要:
A user interface guides an interview of a print service provider (PSP) to generate interview data regarding the PSP. The interview data regarding the PSP is translated into simulation experiments regarding printing production services offerable by the PSP. The simulation results are concurrently executed to generate simulation results. The simulation results are synthesized to generate capacity planning analyses and recommendations for the PSP reviewable within the user interface.

A print production system includes a dispatcher and a task-resource scheduler. The dispatcher sorts print requests for placement among a series of containers to identify relative priorities among all print requests in each container and then merges the containers together to produce a prioritized list of print requests among all containers. Upon release by the dispatcher of a top N print requests from the prioritized list, the scheduler converts the prioritized list into a task-resource schedule for print production.

Systems and methods for color reproduction tolerances are provided. One method according to the present disclosure may involve selecting a printing configuration, printing a color scale sample using the printing configuration, and scoring the printed color scale sample based at least in part on an extent to which transpositions of the color swatches occur over a color range. When the score of the printed color scale sample indicates a print quality is or will be above a threshold level of quality, a print job using colors of the color range may be printed using the printing configuration.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium has embedded therein instructions executable by a processor. The instructions simulate an operation of a print service provider (PSP) using a model of a printing system with a set of operation parameters for performing the PSP operation. The instructions determine a monitoring strategy based on the simulated PSP operation. The monitoring strategy is for monitoring the PSP operation when performed in the printing system.

Devices and methods for tracking a print job using an assignable electronic device on a print service provider (PSP) production floor are provided. One such method includes scanning a barcode-enabled job ticket assigned to a print job using a mobile electronic device assigned to a location on a print service provider production floor and sending barcode data from the barcode-enabled job ticket from to a PSP controller. The mobile electronic device may receive workflow instructions associated with the print job from the PSP controller. In addition, the mobile electronic device may display a representation of the workflow instructions.
摘要:
A system for print service provider (PSP) operations management includes a provenance analytics engine. The provenance analytics engine accesses fresh meta-data associated with fresh events in a PSP operation performed using a printing system operated by a PSP. The provenance analytics engine further accesses stored meta-data associated with past events related to past PSP operations. Still further, the provenance analytics engine accesses a component behavioral model (CBM) to produce results associated with events in a PSP operation. The provenance analytics engine analyzes the event-related meta-data.
摘要:
Systems and methods of data filtering for a print service provider (PSP) are disclosed. An exemplary method includes receiving a plurality of print service parameters. The method also includes filtering the plurality of print service parameters, wherein a portion of the received plurality of print service parameters are retained in machine readable format. The method also includes saving the filtered print service parameters for enhancing automatic and manual print production processes.
摘要:
Systems and methods for determining a quantitative guideline are provided. One such method may involve receiving into an electronic device a print order from a customer to a print service provider, determining the requisite tasks to fulfill the print order, determining which resources of the print service provider are capable of undertaking the requisite tasks, and determining respective costs and lead times associated with undertaking each requisite task using each capable resource. In particular, such costs and lead times may be determined based at least in part on a dynamic behavioral model of cost and a dynamic behavioral model of lead time associated with each resource.
