A reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is a system invented in 1998 that is designed for the outset of rapid change in its structure, as well as its hardware and software components, in order to quickly adjust its production capacity and functionality within a part family in response to sudden market changes or intrinsic system change.
Koren is the founding director (in 1996) of the NSF-sponsored Engineering Research Center (ERC) for Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMS), [11] an ERC that was financially sponsored (at $47 million) by the National Science Foundation and 25 industrial companies until 2012. Under Koren's leadership, 70 Ph.D. students and 270 M.S. graduated ...
Reconfigurable Manufacturing System, designed for rapid change in its structure; Residual mean square, a measure of the difference between data and a model of that data; Revenue Management System (or revenue management software), a software system for managing occupancy in hotels and suchlike
He has made pioneering contributions to the application of modern control methods to semiconductor chip manufacturing processes, particularly to plasma processes for etching silicon and other materials. Other applications include color xerography and control of reconfigurable manufacturing systems.
RepRap was conceived as a complete replication system rather than simply a piece of hardware. To this end the system includes computer-aided design (CAD) in the form of a 3D modeling system and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software and drivers that convert RepRap users' designs into a set of instructions to the RepRap to create physical ...
Reconfigurable manufacturing system: a production system designed at the outset for rapid change in its structure, as well as its hardware and software components, in order to quickly adjust its production capacity and functionality within a part family in response to sudden market changes or intrinsic system change.
Digital manufacturing is an integrated approach to manufacturing that is centered around a computer system. [ 1 ] [ citation needed ] The transition to digital manufacturing has become more popular with the rise in the quantity and quality of computer systems in manufacturing plants.
The reconfigurable device may have a fine-grained architecture like FPGAs, or a coarse-grained architecture like rDPAs. If in a hardware architecture both functionalities of processing elements and interconnections between them can be modified after fabrication time then it is a reconfigurable device or architecture. Reconfiguration
