Concurrent engineering of flexible assembly and just-in-time demands
require solutions for rapid analysis and decisions in response to
on-going changes. Projects in this area apply graphic-based, logic-based,
and analysis model-based techniques to solve specific integration
problems in flexible assembly and other facilities. Effect of communication,
distributed control, and new inspection technologies including MEMS
are investigated.
