The retrieval of manufacturing knowledge in companies is critical because product and process knowledge was not actually managed but only documented. Particularly, the identification of similarities between new and past products relied almost exclusively on the memory and the experience of people, and thus it is a time-consuming task. In this paper, a method to allow the automatic identification of past similar products is proposed, so that they can be used to speed up the design of manufacturing of the new product. The similarity is computed by using a semantic model in the form of ontology, which constitutes the hierarchical structure of concepts. A new similarity index is defined based on the portion of overlapping subgraph of concepts existing between two products. The different weight of each node is also considered because more descendants the node has, less specific its semantics information content is. The computation of the similarity measurement will allow the discovering of knowledge from stored data, thus supporting the engineers in searching for past products having similar characteristics with the new one. The potentiality of the proposed index is shown in a motivating example.

Health care organizations are increasing their efforts towards administrative and clinical-process informatization. In this field, the electronic health record (EHR) can be usefully employed to improve the patient care process, as it allows the health care operator to chronologically gather care events. In achieving such a goal, the possibility of storing care events issuing from different sources is the main challenge to be faced, as it involves the possibility of rendering interoperable different proprietary systems that use customized encoding systems. System interoperability requires the exchange of standardized information and documents, using specialized document templates and encoding systems. This is the case of the Health Level 7/Clinical Document Architecture (HL7/CDA2), which requires the Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC®) system for encoding clinical documents. This paper presents a case study of an interoperability system aimed at producing HL7/CDA2 documents to be sent to a centralized EHR. The case study deals with the standardization of an analysis laboratory encoding system based on LOINC, focusing on a software tool for semi-automatic mapping of internal analysis laboratory codes into LOINC codes. It was carried out at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Italy (UPMC Italy) within the Smart Health 2.0 (Pon04a2_C) project, and aimed at realizing an advanced EHR that enables the collection of structured documents produced by different health care organizations in the region of Sicily, and facilitates data retrieval and longitudinal or cross-sectional analysis.

Emergency Departments (ED) is the center of the hospital management's efforts. It constitutes a complex system with limited resources and random demands. The goal of this paper is to optimize the number of the human and material resources. We focus particularly on medical staff (physicians and nurses) and beds in emergency department. We propose a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) that minimizes the number of waiting patients. We consider simultaneously four patients' queue. To solve this model, we use the solver ILOG CPLEX Optimization Studio. The program has been tested on a set of instances. Numerical results show that the number of waiting patients decreased by optimizing the number of the human and material resources.

The purpose of this paper is to automate a manual assembly line following a structured framework, in a motorcyclist industry. Process re-engineering is implemented in order to improve and automate the assembly process of a manufacturing company. The transition from the manual process to the new semi-automated assembly line is composed of 4 main steps: the as-is analysis, the Process reengineering and layout design, the training and finally the mass production. The study has shown that the line automation yields significant improvements: sizeable increase of the workstations saturation, better cohesion with Just in Time principles, reduction of the employed working force, and increase of the quality control process rigor. The scope of the study was limited to one of the firm assembly line. In future, the company plans to perform similar studies on the other lines. This investigation shows significant benefit associated with a structured implementation automation in the field of assembly process. The findings will mainly be relevant for process and logistics managers involved in the planning of a new assembly line or in the redesign of an existing one. This paper provides an original case study of as-is analysis, re-design, training and testing of an improved assembly line.

Intercell transfers make the idea of creating independent cells in cellular manufacturing systems impossible, but are essential for enterprises to reduce the costs. Because intercell transportation in the equipment manufacturing industry cannot be neglected, the problem of intercell scheduling with a limited transportation capacity constraint, which is essentially the integration of part scheduling and transportation, is addressed in this paper. An artificial bee colony (ABC) with aging leader in the elite group (ALEG) approach is proposed. Different from the basic ABC algorithm, a leading mechanism, namely ALEG is used in the onlooker bee phase, which provides the colony with more opportunities to search in promising regions. Aiming at minimizing the total weighted tardiness, the experiment is conducted by applying two leading mechanisms, i.e., ALEG and the one proposed in the previous study, to ABC, respectively. Computational results show that the proposed approach is better than the latter one.

In today's increasingly risky and uncertain business and industrial environments, supply chains need to be more flexible and more robust to improve their performance. During the last decade supply chain risk management has emerged as a challenge on the strategic and operational supply chain issues. A deeply analysis of a case study has revealed that modern retail industry needs decision support tools to manage supply chain risks. These tools should cope with emerging practices and integrate many categories of risks. Of course, it has to be understood that risks can differ from one sector to another and from one supply chain to another and one country to another. In this paper we present preliminary research concepts and findings concerning the identification, the analysis and the modeling of risks in the modern retail supply chains. We propose a new framework for categorizing the risks in order to assess the overall impact on the performance of the retail supply chain. These risks were selected based on the literature review and on a case study of a leading retail company in Tunisia. Review of the literature on supply chain risk modeling techniques are presented and discussed. The paper concludes with numerical analysis of supply risk and comments on opportunities for further research on the area of supply chain risk and performance trade-off.

The purchasing function is the strongest link in the hospital supply chain. The stakes which are related to it are often complex and difficult to define. Public institutions and hospitals are all invited to master these link operations, with a particular focus on the hospital-supplier relationship. One of the most crucial is the selection of the right supplier, which is based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria. However, few methods and tools are available to guide the decision-maker to make optimal choices based on different types of criteria. Therefore, we propose in this paper a new heuristic for a common optimum work between hospitals and suppliers, in order create a value control in costs, deadlines and quality. Our paper is composed of five parts. The first shows the interest of the study. The second presents the literature review. The third explains the problematic situation. The fourth sets out our work methodology and the proposed model. In the fifth part, we illustrate the proposed methodology through a case study. And we finish our paper with a conclusion and work prospects.

The present study defines a methodology to analyze the relationship between the failure rate of any component and the factors that can influence it, in order to link time independent operating variables to the reliability study. Characterizing the failure rate using these variables is especially useful for changing time operational contexts. To do this, a study of traditional and modern methods of analysis, together with the assumptions that must be fulfill for its implementation and the methodology for testing the assumptions is performed. Specifically, the methodology proposed in this paper is used to develop a complete study of the influence of the energy consumption of a component, at the rate of engine failure. As can be inferred, there is a relationship between energy consumption and the rate of failure; the practical experience reveals that companies frequently use the energy expenditure variable, but documented studies that corroborate their decision are not found in the literature.

The paper presents analysis of two control strategies, i.e. LQR and LQI, in application to control of continuous-time nonlinear system on the basis of its linearised discrete-time model, taking robustness approach into account. The applied control laws assure robustness subject to actuator failure what has been used to obtain better control quality (in the sense of selected performance indexes) in comparison to control laws that take no uncertainty into account. The uncertainty resembles here actuator failure or mismodeling case, whenever applied control signal results in different behaviour of the closed-loop system than desired, as in actuator failure case alone.
