[EN] The manufacturing field is an area where the application of simulation is an essential tool for validating methods and architectures before applying them on the factory floor and the warehouse control. Multiagent ...
Today, the need for architectures and computational models for large-scale open multi-agent systems is considered to be a key issue for the success of agent technology in real-world scenarios. This paper analyzes the ...
Igual Herrero, Francisco Jesús(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2012-10-01)
In the actual environmental context where water is becoming a major concern,
countries suffering from water scarcity like Spain, and more precisely its
Mediterranean coast regions, have the responsibility to take the ...
Nowadays fully integrated enterprises are being replaced by business networks in which each participant provides others with specialized services. As a result, the Service Oriented Manufacturing Systems emerges. These ...
[EN] Nowadays, the manufacturing industry faces the challenge of reducing energy consumption and the associated environmental impacts. Production scheduling is an effective approach for energy-savings management. During ...
[EN] Optimized urban logistics is an important issue for rapidly growing cities worldwide. Many criteria can be optimized in order to improve the performance of urban logistics. Economic and time dependent criteria are ...
The manufacturing field is an area where the application of simulation is an essential tool for validating methods and architectures before applying them on the factory floor. Despite the fact that there are a great number ...
[EN] With increasingly stringent environmental regulations on emission standards, enterprises and investigators are looking for effective ways to decrease GHG emission from products. As an important method for reducing GHG ...
[EN] New stricter environmental regulations and consumer rising issues are making greenhouse gases (GHG) emission an increasing and urgent concern for manufacturing companies. Companies and researchers are seeking appropriate ...
