Using Discrete { time Analysis in the Performance Evaluation of Manu - facturing
نویسنده
چکیده
Discrete{time analysis (DTA) is a modelling technique that is mainly applied to the analysis of communication systems. In this paper, we show how DTA can be adopted to the numerical analysis of manufacturing systems. The modelling concepts of DTA are introduced and the advantages of DTA over other methods like discrete{event simulation are indicated. We apply DTA to two sample applications, namely the analysis of a simple batch server and a batch server with bounded idle time.

Modeling and Evaluation of Stochastic Discrete-Event Systems with RayLang Formalism
In recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool for performance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. In the view points of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficulties in using formal methods. In this paper, we introduce a new formal modeling language to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) us...

متن کاملExploring the Relationship Between Different Technologically Improved Measures and Firm Performance: An Empirical Analysis Based on Manu- facturing in Shanghai 1998-2003
The paper analyses the effect of R&D and technology import on firm performance in Shanghai. We consider R&D and technology spill-over to be heterogeneous treatments, and using econometric matching, we account for possible selection bias. Our results suggest that, when compared to companies without any treatment, firms that receive either or both of our treatments yield positive effects. Technol...
