The following paper is a review article and the presented analysis to a large extent is based on theoretical considerations referring to studies of other authors. Presenting the sources of this notion in the context of industry 4.0 and sustainable development is a foundation for possible further experimental research. However, the primary aim of this article is to demonstrate the sources of scientific interest in artificial intelligence, directions of research on this notion and potential sociological research areas related to AI. Another goal of this article is to indicate the implications that can be used in planned research projects. The scope of the analysis is largely based on the study of literature.","PeriodicalId":166707,"journal":{"name":"Conference Quality Production Improvement – CQPI","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127498570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reliability of the machine as a whole depends on the sieve’s quality. An analysis of the two constructions of the paper forming sieves, which were obtained by the plasma welding of the sieve’s wires, is presented in this paper. The mechanical characteristics of the two sieves, made of wires of diameters 0.15 mm and 0.20 mm, were tested, namely the tensile strength and elongation. The tests have shown that the sieve made of the wire of the smaller diameter has the better mechanical properties. This sieve is also better from the aspect of the water removal in the press section of the paper machine.","PeriodicalId":166707,"journal":{"name":"Conference Quality Production Improvement – CQPI","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123990155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is influenced by many factors, including lack of time, rush, high competition, convenience of shopping. Due to the appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic, which paralyzed practically the whole world, locked families in homes, customers started buying selected food, cosmetics and chemical products in stationery shops. Many restrictions have been introduced, including shopping restrictions. Many people chose e-shops instead of stationery shops. The purpose of the paper was to check whether the appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic had somehow changed the shopping habits of e-shops’ customers.

The amount of profit and costs incurred depends on this division. The efficiency of production resources depends not only on the technologies used, but also on the tasks that will be carried out on them. Therefore, the management of machine efficiency includes both an evaluation (analytical and assessment undertaking, e.g. OEE) and planning activities aimed at maximizing the efficiency of machines by appropriately assigning production tasks to them. The article presents the problem of the allocation of production of various products to various production resources, including the efficiency of the use of machines and devices, emphasizing the possibilities of undertaking optimization actions in the cost management process. A mathematical model was formulated for this issue. An algorithm solving the problem of allocation of production tasks is presented.
