Download or read book Computer Integrated Production Systems and Organizations written by Felix Schmid and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Background to the Institute The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) 'People and Computers - Applying an Anthropocentric Approach to Integrated Production Systems and Organisations' came about after the distribution of a NATO fact sheet to BruneI University, which described the funding of ASls. The 'embryonic' director of the ASI brought this opportunity to the attention of the group of people, (some at BruneI and some from outside), who were together responsible for the teaching and management of the course in Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) in BruneI's Department of Manufacturing and Engineering Systems. This course had been conceived in 1986 and was envisaged as a vehicle for teaching manufacturing engineering students the technology of information integration through project work. While the original idea of the course had also included the organisational aspects of CIM, the human factors questions were not considered. This shortcoming was recognised and the trial run of the course in 1988 contained some lectures on 'people' issues. The course team were therefore well prepared and keen to explore the People, Organisation and Technology (POT) aspects of computer integration, as applied to industrial production. A context was proposed which would allow the inclusion of people from many different backgrounds and which would open up time and space for reflection. The proposal to organise a NATO ASI was therefore welcomed by all concerned.
Download or read book ANEMONA written by Vicent Botti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-06-28 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANEMONA is a multi-agent system (MAS) methodology for holonic manufacturing system (HMS) analysis and design. ANEMONA defines a mixed top-down and bottom-up development process, and provides HMS-specific guidelines to help designers identify and implement holons. The analysis phase is defined in two stages: System Requirements Analysis, and Holon Identification and Specification. This analysis provides high-level HMS specifications, adopting a top-down recursive approach which provides a set of elementary elements and assembling rules. The next stage is Holon Design, a bottom-up process to produce the system architecture from the analysis models. The Holons Implementation stage produces an Executable Code for the SetUp and Configuration stage. Finally, maintenances functions are executed in the Operation and Maintenance stage. The book will be of interest to researchers and students involved in artificial intelligence and software engineering, and manufacturing engineers in industry and academia.
Download or read book Building Sensor Networks written by Ioanis Nikolaidis and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For all the interest that wireless sensor networks have created over the past decade, there are few examples to show that they are truly delivering on this promise and anticipation. What is missing? Deviating from the usual focus on routing and energy efficiency, Building Sensor Networks: From Design to Applications attempts to stitch together the path from conceptual development of applications, on one end, to actual complete applications at the other. With this change in perspective, the book examines important facets of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that are not often discussed in the literature. From Design Practices to the Networking Protocols that Glue Applications Together Organized into three sections, the book presents insights from international experts representing both industry and academia. The first section, on design practices, explores alternative ways to approach the tasks of developing a suitable WSN solution to an application and assisting that development in a manner that is not necessarily tied to a particular application. The second section, on networking protocols, illustrates the impact of the intermediaries—the "glue" of putting applications together. Chapters look at ways to address traffic, delays in network clustering, and the coexistence of a WSN with other systems on a frequency band. The final section of the book delves into experiences with applications in chemical sensing, defense, global trade and security, and ecosystem monitoring. Although these applications may fail the purist definition of an ideal WSN, they offer valuable lessons for the future development and deployment of WSNs. Challenge Your Thinking about Designing WSN Applications Emphasizing the need to build applications, the contributors present examples of what applications of WSNs could look like and identify the constraints. Throughout, the book challenges and illuminates your thinking about how to tame the complexity of designing a WSN application. It is essential reading for anyone interested in future wireless technologies.

Download or read book Concepts of Machine Learning written by Ajay Kumar Goyal and published by Xoffencerpublication. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since AI has dominated data innovation for more than 20 years, it has played a significant but frequently unnoticed role in our lives. Shrewd information examination will probably turn out to be considerably more common as a prerequisite for mechanical progression because of the steadily growing amounts of information that are becoming available. The main objectives of this chapter are to organise the zoo of issues and to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the numerous applications that have machine learning challenges at their core. The language where various AI issues should be figured out to become agreeable to arrangement, measurements and likelihood hypothesis will next be covered in detail along with some fundamental tools from these fields. Finally, we will present a series of simple yet effective techniques to address a significant categorization challenge. Later chapters of the book will look at more advanced methods, broad concerns, and a complete analysis. A variety of structures can be used with AI. We currently cover the types of information that various projects need, and we categorise the problems in a somewhat more tailored way. The last option is pivotal assuming we are to forestall making the wheel without any preparation for each new application. All things being equal, a huge piece of the craft of AI is to consolidate a wide assortment of rather unique issues into few models. The inquiry into artificial intelligence is then heavily concentrated on finding convincing evidence for the solutions to such problems. The majority of readers will understand page positioning on a website. This method involves typing a search word into a web search tool, which then searches the Internet for pages matching the term and returns them in a list organised by pertinence. For a delineation of the query items for "AI," see Figure 1.2. As such, because of an inquiry, the web crawler gives an arranged rundown of sites. To achieve this, a web search tool must "know" which pages fit the inquiry and which pages are significant.

Download or read book Integration of Process Knowledge into Design Support Systems written by Hubert Kals and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design is a fundamental creative human activity. This certainly applies to the design of artefacts, the realisation of which has to meet many constraints and ever raising criteria. The world in which we live today, is enormously influenced by the human race. Over the last century, these artefacts have dramatically changed the living conditions of humans. The present wealth in very large parts of the world, depends on it. All the ideas for better and new artefacts brought forward by humans have gone through the minds of designers, who have turned them into feasible concepts and subsequently transformed them into realistic product models. The designers have been, still are, and will remain the leading 'change agents' in the physical world. Manufacturability of artefacts has always played a significant role in design. In pre industrial manufacturing, the blacksmith held the many design and realisation aspects of a product in one hand. The synthesis of the design and manufacturing aspects took, almost implicitly, place in the head of the man. All the knowledge and the skills were stored in one person. Education and training took place along the line of many years of apprenticeship. When the production volumes increased, -'assembling to measure' was no longer tolerated and production efficiency became essential - design, process planning, production planning and fabrication became separated concerns. The designers created their own world, separated from the production world. They argued that restrictions in the freedom of designing would badly influence their creativity in design.
