  2. Batch production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_production

    For example, if a product needed a sudden change in material or details changed, it can be done in between batches. As opposed to assembly production or mass production where such changes cannot be easily made. [3] The time between batches is called cycle time. [2] Each batch may be assigned a lot number.

  3. Economic batch quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_batch_quantity

    The disadvantages of planning a small batch are that there will be costs of frequent ordering, and a high risk of interruption of production because of a small product inventory. [12] Somewhere between the large and small batch quantity is the optimal batch quantity, i.e. the quantity in which the cost per product unit is the lowest. [12]

  4. Scheduling (production processes) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(production...

    Batch production scheduling is the practice of planning and scheduling of batch manufacturing processes. Although scheduling may apply to traditionally continuous processes such as refining, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] it is especially important for batch processes such as those for pharmaceutical active ingredients, biotechnology processes and many specialty ...

  5. Methods of production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_production

    Batch production is the method used to produce or process any product of the groups or batches where the products in the batch go through the whole production process together. An example would be when a bakery produces each different type of bread separately and each product (in this case, bread) is not produced continuously. Batch production ...

  6. ACT-R - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACT-R

    In theory, each task that humans can perform should consist of a series of these discrete operations. Most of the ACT-R's basic assumptions are also inspired by the progress of cognitive neuroscience , and ACT-R can be seen and described as a way of specifying how the brain itself is organized in a way that enables individual processing modules ...

  7. Markovian arrival process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovian_arrival_process

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a Markovian arrival process (MAP or MArP [1]) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. The simplest such process is a Poisson process where the time between each arrival is exponentially distributed .

  8. Production planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_Planning

    Role of Production Planning in the Production Cycle. Production planning is the planning of production and manufacturing modules in a company or industry. It utilizes the resource allocation of activities of employees, materials and production capacity, in order to serve different customers.

  9. Experience curve effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience_curve_effects

    An example of experience curve effects: Swanson's law states that solar module prices have dropped about 20% for each doubling of installed capacity. [1] [2]In industry, models of the learning or experience curve effect express the relationship between experience producing a good and the efficiency of that production, specifically, efficiency gains that follow investment in the effort.
