Manufacturing architecture design using discrete material flow management

Manufacturing Architecture Design Using Discrete Material Flow Management

The main problem treated in this paper is that if we want to optimize a network of manufacturing systems design using discrete material flow management we need a new algorithm different from the one used for a single manufacturing system. For a single manufacturing system we usually use discrete material flow simulation to identify and eliminate bottlenecks where the flow is slowed down or bloc...

Supplementary Material: Deep Discrete Flow

In this supplementary document, we first present additional experiments to show the convergence of training in Section 1.1 and compare the performance of exact matching against a frequently used approximate nearest neighbour search library in Section 1.2. We then show the speed-ups we gain by the strided implementation of the patch-based dilated convolutions in Section 2.1. We compare the runti...

Computation Optical Flow Using Pipeline Architecture

Accurate estimation of motion from time-varying imagery has been a popular problem in vision studies, This information can be used in segmentation, 3D motion and shape recovery, target tracking, and other problems in scene analysis and interpretation. We have presented a dynamic image model for estimating image motion from image sequences, and have shown how the solution can be obtained from a ...

Drug Discovery Acceleration Using Digital Microfluidic Biochip Architecture and Computer-aided-design Flow

A Digital Microfluidic Biochip (DMFB) offers a promising platform for medical diagnostics, DNA sequencing, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and drug discovery and development. Conventional Drug discovery procedures require timely and costly manned experiments with a high degree of human errors with no guarantee of success. On the other hand, DMFB can be a great solution for miniaturization, int...
