An Expert System Aproach to Discrete‐Change Simulation

Chaharbaghi, K.; Davies, B.L.; Rahnejat, H.; Dobbs, P.J. - In: International Journal of Operations & Production Management 8 (1988) 2, pp. 14-34

There are a number of major prerequisites in the planning, design and operation of all manufacturing systems. These … associated with flexible batch manufacturing environment, and by external perturbations that can break‐down their steady state … characteristics. There is a major need for a robust tool to be established that forms a coherent manufacturing control strategy and …

Production Structure and Economic Fluctuations

Ciarli, Tommaso; Valente, Marco - Laboratory of Economics and Management (LEM), Scuola … - 2007

We aim at contributing to the debate on the mechanisms and properties of economic fluctuations. We consider a crucial aspect among many thought to influence this ubiquitous and extremely relevant phenomenon: the interaction structure that characterises the organisation of production, that is,...

Transmission of Demographic Shock Effects from Large to Small

Kenc, Turalay; Sayan, Serdar - EconWPA - 1998

This paper addresses an issue that has been overlooked in the literature on the effects of population ageing: Transmission onto small countries of the economic effects of population ageing, a natural, demographic outcome of the shock that many large industrial countries experienced in the form...

Returns to Specialization, Transaction Costs, and the Dynamics of Industry Evolution

Arora, Ashish; Bokhari, Farasat - EconWPA - 1996

When more than one component or activity is needed to produce the final product, a firm may use proprietary standards or adopt a common standard to integrate these components. We call these closed and open firms respectively, and develop a model of industry evolution to study the process by...
