Industries are often faced with supply and demand-related disruptions, leading to production lines unable to cope with material shortage and demand spikes, resulting in missed opportunities or wastage. As a prevailing technology in the manufacturing domain, Digital twins (DT) has the potential to support SC disruption management with real-time connectivity, simulation, and decision support functionalities. Thus, this paper proposes a DT system designed to mitigate SC-related disruptions, and facilitates end-to-end visibility, process streamlining, and solution generation to meet these challenges. A case study featuring an individualized production shop floor is further explored to validate the effectiveness of this DT system in disruption management within the FMCG domain. This explorative study hopes to align manufacturing resilience concepts with industrial practices to suit today's academic and industrial environment.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"62 1","pages":"848-852"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84965897","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}

Small and medium-sized toy factories in China have been facing challenges to deal with European and US toy safety requirements. How to establish an effective management system to avoid product recalls or penalties becomes an important question, especially to small and medium-sized toy factories with limited resources. After literature review and a pilot study in 4 toy factories, a conceptual framework has been proposed. In January 2020, these 4 factories followed the framework and implemented the toy safety improvement schemes. In January 2021, they were interviewed again about their implementation status. The results showed that their capabilities in responding to European and US toy safety requirements had been lifted. Positive contributions from Toy safety assessment, Industry 4.0, and ISO 37301 (It supersedes ISO 19600:2014) were confirmed among the tactics. This study provides a valuable framework for manufacturers in selecting and implementing toy product safety tactics in responding to European and US requirements.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"11 1","pages":"1179-1183"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85197024","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}

Given a query, the design methodology is able to assist database designers to determine the best set of configurations of data, also known elsewhere as scheme trees, in the database such that the retrieval time of the query can be minimal or reduced. The design methodology first models an application of interest with a conceptual model. Based on our previous researches, the design methodology then generates from the conceptual model as few scheme trees as possible, which will eventually be implemented as MongoDB's collections in the database. To illustrate the design methodology, the COVID-19 data set was downloaded as an example application. The design methodology first conceptualized the data set with an Entity-Relationship model. Multiples queries were then devised to access various parts of the date set, whose executions required retrievals of the attribute values of all or some of the entity types and/or the relationship in the ER model. The design methodology then generated the best sets of scheme trees for the queries.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"33 1","pages":"1451-1455"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85210533","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 current method of performing action recognition uses 3D convolutional neural network (3DCNN) and real-time object detection which uses You Only Look Once (YOLO) as backbone.

For modeling purposes, some elements are included such as: 1) Business Process Improvement, 2) Marketing Strategies, 3) Business Management Innovation, 4) Business Models and Organizational Culture, 5) Privacy and Ethics, 6) Business Performance. Furthermore, sampling of managers in manufacturing industry are gained to answer several questions regarding the model development. For analysis purposes, Smart PLS 3.0 is run to evaluate the fitness of the model with requirement of Goodness of Fit (GoF) above 0.38. After careful conduct, the model is robust and accurate. From this model it can be said that 1) Business Models & Organizational Culture positively influence Business Process Improvement while Privacy and Ethics negatively influence it, 2) Business Process Improvement positively influences Marketing Strategies, Business Management Innovation and Business Performance, and 3) both Marketing Strategies and Business Management Innovation positively influence Business Performance.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"155 1","pages":"1127-1131"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85393847","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 purpose is to develop a forecasting model for electricity spot prices based on prices established on the derivatives markets. The model uses Artificial Neural Networks trained with the Extreme Learning Machine algorithm to determine the monthly average spot prices for the next six months and provides a tool for making trading decisions considering the risk of exposure to spot market volatility. The forecasting model was applied in two scenarios: pre-pandemic and pandemic. The results prove that its application can contribute to improving decision-making for trading electricity in the short/medium term.

In this study, we develop a new multicriteria ranking approach that considers people's subjective attitudes on objective rankings and accommodates a hierarchical structure of criteria. Our new approach, called weighted subjective skyline ranking (WSSR), can capture people's tastes (or bias) under a hierarchy of multicriteria. As a unique behavioral feature, this WSSR accounts for the diminishing sensitivity of people. We can quantitatively characterize the influence of people's subjective attitudes in processing multicriteria ranking. We consider the world university ranking as a practical scenario of implementation through this study. Interestingly, using the WSSR uncovers essentials and bias in prevailing world university ranking systems. This study provides a deeper understanding of the influence of the human factor on multicriteria ranking.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"82 1","pages":"383-387"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90882269","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}

With increasing complexity and functionalities of vehicles on the one hand, and decreasing time to market on the other hand, managing ECs becomes more crucial. Especially ECs affecting part-specific tools consume much time and costs in the development of an automobile. To find strategies for reducing this effort, it is important to understand when and why ECs occur. Therefore, this paper first investigates the distribution over time of 3561 EC Orders (ECOs) of three vehicle development projects. A similar pattern with peaks after hardware development phases is observed. Second, the ECOs are categorized according to their reasons. The most frequent reasons are assembly problems, design, and geometric conflicts. Third, the share of reasons over time is analyzed. Whereas some reasons like cost reduction occur early in the development process, others like assembly problems or acoustics appear later. The authors suggest that some ECs with reasons like acoustics should be either done earlier or reduced e.g. through increased virtual validation whereas others with reasons like design should be done more efficiently.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"7 1","pages":"477-481"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84191523","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}
