Abstract: |
The paper addresses a problem, practitioners in produc-tion
and logistics are faced with every day: Although sev-eral
mathematical solutions including Petri net approaches exist for the
simulation of complex processes, appropriate and simple to use tools do not
exist. In the following, the results of a two year
running research project are presented which addresses this problem. Guided
by the Design Sci-ence Research approach, in this
project a programming lan-guage and a programming
and simulation environment for higher Petri nets has been developed, tested
and evaluated. Method and tool are applied to complex simulation prob-lems in production planning and control now. The
follow-ing results had to be achieved: 1) Schedule-related data like customer orders and their prioritization
can be considered now. 2) Various produc-tion
strategies such as push or pull can be applied. 3) Com-plex
data types including date and time information are sup-ported. 4) Working
time and downtime of machines can be imported from external data sources like
an MES in order to calculate productivity measures like an OEE index. The tool has been developed as a web-based system in order to support
mobile use even on the shop floor. The application of
language, tool and simulation results are demonstrated here
introductorily at the example of a (sim-ple)
production control. The problems handled in current industry projects are
more complex of course. |
