Exposing Delays in Multi-Step Processes by Retrospective Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multi-step processes are common in healthcare, software development, and other dynamic environments. Managers who monitor processes are overwhelmed by information, and have limited time to investigate data from different viewpoints. We propose the interactive Multi-Step Process Visualization (MSProVis) for retrospective analysis, to expose delays in multi-step processes, and support the comparisons between steps or between actors executing those steps. A usability study with seven users showed that all participants could use MSProVis effectively and rapidly gain insights.

Application of Markov Processes to the Machine Delays Analysis
Production and non-productive equipment and personnel delays are a critical element of any production system. The frequency and length of delays impact heavily on the production and economic efficiency of these systems. Machining processes in wood industry are particularly vulnerable to productive and non-productive delays. Whereas, traditional manufacturing industries usually operate on homoge...
متن کاملIdentifying the change time of multivariate binomial processes for step changes and drifts
In this paper, a new control chart to monitor multi-binomial processes is first proposed based on a transformation method. Then, the maximum likelihood estimators of change points designed for both step changes and linear-trend disturbances are derived. At the end, the performances of the proposed change-point estimators are evaluated and are compared using some Monte Carlo simulation experimen...

متن کاملA Modified Multi Time Step Integration for Dynamic Analysis
In this paper new implicit higher order accuracy (N-IHOA) time integration based on assumption of constant time step is presented for dynamic analysis. This method belongs to the category of the multi time step integrations. Here, current displacement and velocity are assumed to be functions of the velocities and accelerations of several previous time steps, respectively. This definition causes...
