Summary:
The main objective of this research is to develop an integrated simulator which would perform as a decision support system of a Just-in-Time manufacturing process. It would permit a process designer or manufacturing engineer with no simulation expertise to define the process variables, then run the simulation program. A secondary objective is to combine in one system the key functions required by a manufacturing engineer or manager, such as the operational (real time), statistical, and financial aspects. And also makes those function modules easy to understand and user-friendly. The integrated simulator can use animation to visualize an actual production line. A case study has been developed to verify and validate the work done.
