PRODUCTION PLANNING AND CONTROL

ISYE 415

Introduction to the technologies, processes and systems of modern discrete part manufacturing. Emphasis on development of an understanding of the behavior of integrated systems.

OTM 654

The role of materials and capacity planning and control in business operations. Manufacturing Resource Planning Systems: aggregate planning, material requirements planning, capacity planning, operations scheduling. Procedures for cellular manufacturing systems. Costing issues in modern planning and control systems.

ME 447

Discrete control theory reduced to engineering practice through a comprehensive study of discrete system modeling, system identification and digital controller design. Selected industrial processes and machines utilized as subjects on which computer control is to be implemented. Focus: computer control economics and planning as well as the control theory and programming.

ISYE 615

An intermediate to advanced course stressing the application of recent operations research techniques to production planning, scheduling and inventory control.

ISYE/ME 641

Covers a broad range of techniques and tools relevant to the design, analysis, development, implementation, operation and control of modern manufacturing systems. Case studies assignments using industry data will be used to elaborate the practical applications of the theoretical concepts.
