In order to monitor relevant processes and to optimize decision-making in case of disruptions, a concept for a decision support system (DSS) was introduced. For this purpose, the distribution process weaknesses of the German premium automotive company BMW were identified. The method used was a Failure Mode and Effect Analysis with operational managers and relevant process partners interviews. Based on the findings, performance indicators, thresholds, early warnings and options for action were specified. A big data platform supports the processing of the growing number of relevant data in real-time. In the long-term decision-making can be automated using machine learning algorithms. This paper proves that negative impacts of disruptions can be minimized, and the robustness of the process improved by anticipating and identifying deviations beforehand and in real-time. Hence, companies save money while strengthening customer satisfaction. The DSS can be seen as a necessary precursor of a digital twin.","PeriodicalId":226426,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130063259","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}

This paper addresses a resource-constrained emergency scheduling problem for dealing with forest fires with priority disaster areas. It aims to determine an optimal fire-fighting scheduling plan for multiple forest fire points to minimize the total transport distance and the fire extinguishing rescue time, simultaneously. To effectively solve this problem, we formulate a multi-objective mixed-integer linear programming model, and an iterative and fuzzy logic decision-making based on ε-constraint method is designed to obtain a preferred emergency scheduling scheme. Finally, the computational results on benchmark and randomly generate test instances verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed model and method.","PeriodicalId":226426,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134116127","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}

We demonstrate the use of simulation modelling to quickly and reliably model and analyze supply chain disruptions through the use of anyLogistix simulation software. In this paper, we have simulated a case of an Australian hardware retail supply chain that has a global supply network. We have investigated the impact of COVID19 disruptions on the supply chain performance. Our results highlighted the importance of waiting order cancellation strategy in the recovery period for reducing supply chain costs and maintaining service level. We also discussed the negative effect of distance between supplier and customer on the resiliency of delivery systems.

But, workers’ subjective evaluation of the impacts of construction noises have been less studied. This study investigated the adverse impact of construction noise from the perspective of the workers and analyzed their responses for the role of personal factor (i.e. noise sensitivity) in perceiving adverse impacts and the likelihood of making errors during work. The results showed that noise sensitivity was an important factor in the subjective evaluation of construction noise and the likelihood of making mistakes. With the increase of noise sensitivity, the relations among some factors are non-linear. It was found that psychological impacts were regarded more obvious than physiological impacts to workers. And there was a significant positive correlation between adverse impact and the likelihood of work error. Current noise control methods could be categorized into five types and mostly singly used. There were no significant differences among them indicating less efficiency. The findings can facilitate better working environment for on-site workers to promote both their physical and mental health.","PeriodicalId":226426,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133672967","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}

The main challenge lies in maximizing the use of an existing CCTV camera with a fixed viewpoint, which is tailored for security purposes instead of video analytics, by using its footage in the IVA. The researchers partnered with a restaurant in a high-traffic business district to create and test the system. The final system gathered data on foot traffic, customer gender classification, and customer group size. Neural networks such as YOLO, Deep SORT, and InceptionV3 were employed in the implementation. The results show that while it is possible to gather data on these three metrics through the system, the speed and accuracy can still be improved through downsizing the frames, down sampling the videos, and using other algorithms.","PeriodicalId":226426,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127864196","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}
