Goal(s)

The aim of this course is to provide students with the necessary knowledge to model Production Systems and analyze them in order to assess their performance, in a stochastic environment.
In order to reach this aim, some modeling tools for Discrete Event Systems are studied, and it is shown how to use these tools to model Production Systems and analyze them in order to understand and optimize their behavior.

  • Discrete Event Systems Modeling

II. SOME TOOLS FOR THE MODELING AND THE ANALYSIS OF PRODUCTION SYSTEMS (16,5 hours):

  • Markov Chains (2 hours)
    • Probability theory and stochastic processes
    • Continuous Markov chains - Definition, Modeling, Resolution
  • Queueing networks (6,5 hours )
    • Generalities on queueing networks
    • Analysis of a single queue
    • Product form queueing networks - exact analysis
    • Some elements for the resolution of non product form queueing networks
  • Petri nets (8 hours)
    • Presentation of the tool
    • Formalization and Dynamics
    • Qualitative properties
    • Some elements for the quantitative analysis

III. MODELING PHYSICAL FLOWS IN PRODUCTION SYSTEMS (4,5 hours):

  • Bottleneck analysis
  • Importance of stochastic phenomena

Prerequisites

Basic Probability and Statistics

Test

CC = Continuous assessment

E1 = Final written exam from the 1st exam period
E2 = Final written exam from the 2nd exam period

N1 = Final mark from the 1st exam period
N2 = Final mark from the 2nd exam period

N1=0,3*CC+0,7*E1
N2= E2

This weighting is compatible with a distant organization of teaching and exams.

N1 = 0,3*CC+0,7*E1

N2 = E2

Cette pondération est compatible avec une organisation des enseignements et des examens en distanciel
