Description
This thesis uses the Dynamo Language and Modeling Techniques to show the
effects of unpredictable delays on manufacturing facilities using a job
shop production strategy. These delays affect productivity in that they
cause increased work-in-process inventories and underutilized resources.
Two models are developed, a macro model treating the plant floor as an
entity and a micro model which shows the day-to-day operation of four
work centers. The same basic assumptions are made in each model so the
results may be used to complement each other.
