Beyond Lean. Simulation in practice

Аннотация

The book covers a wide spectrum of topics related to simulation for lean purposes. The book assumes a pre-knowledge in lean principles and manufacturing systems design and analysis. The book provides pseudo-codes for different simulation situations. The book is nicely organized. The first part provides background on simulation and then moves to explain simulation in different applications. This book covers a wide variety of scenarios that may be simulated in a Lean manufacturing operation. It appears to assume a fairly good understanding of Lean principles, manufacturing system design, and programming skills. Example simulation set ups are described in a generalized pseudocode, and are meant to be compatible with the AutoMod simulation software, which has a free student version.
