About this title

Synopsis

Modern manufacturing systems must be engineered as any other complex systems, especially in the context of their integration. The book first presents the all-embracing concept of the Extended Enterprise as way of inter-enterprise integration. It then focusses on Enterprise Engineering methods and tools to address intra-enterprise integration using a model-based approach. Business process modelling and re-engineering isssues are particularly discussed and tools presented. Formal specification and Petri net-based analysis methods for manufacturing systems complete the set of tools for Enterprise Engineering. Coordination and integration issues of manufacturing systems and their business processes are then covered and examples of integration platforms presented. Finally, standardization and pre-standardization issues related to enterprise modelling and integration conclude the book.

From the Back Cover

This book discusses the tools and techniques for modelling, analysis, specification and integration of modern manufacturing systems. It first presents the concept of the extended enterprise as a way of inter-enterprise integration. It then focuses on enterprise engineering methods and tools to address intra-enterprise integration using a model-based approach. The book is organized into eight parts: the extended enterprise, enterprise engineering, business process modelling and re-engineering, manufacturing system specification, manufacturing system analysis, manufacturing system coordination and integration, and pre-normative and standardization issues. It contains selected papers from the European Workshop on Integrated Manufacturing Systems Engineering, organized by the International Federation for Information Processing and held in Grenoble, France, in December 1994. This book will be essential reading for industrial, mechanical and production engineers and consultants working in industry or universities. It will also be of interest to post-graduate students in the disciplines of mechanical and industrial engineering.
