Advances in Production Management Systems 85: Proceedings of the Second IFIP WG 5.7 Working Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems, APMS 85, Budapest, Hungary, 27-30 August 1985Elizabeth Szelke, Jimmie Browne Hardbound. This book reports on advances in Production Management Systems, which have been revolutionized by the development of computer based production planning and control systems. The book aims to assist researchers and industrial practitioners who are now faced with the challenge of providing a coherent theory of production management systems, and of applying it in practice.In this volume leading experts from all over the world present state-of-the-art papers on all aspects of this discipline, and examine issues from various points of view (corporate strategy, logistics, and shop-floor control).Areas addressed include: Artificial Intelligence approaches to Production Management Systems problems; the role of simulation in the design and management of such Systems; and JIT production. A special section on Production Management Systems in less developed countries is also included. |
