Title
Simulation Based Production Planning Through Artificial Neural Networks
Abstract
The use of simulation technology as a tool for planning and control is of increasing significance in most fields of production. The main part of the expenditure concerning simulation analyses is the modeling of the considered production. Despite the use of modern building block-oriented modeling technology, this modeling can often not be done by the user, but only by external experts. Against this backdrop, an adaptive simulation system is being developed by the Fraunhofer IPA. It independently adapts to real production processes and, in this way, supports the user in constructing and maintaining the model.
