Technical Approach• Identify simulation and engineering tool integration requirements from

hands-on experience with software tools, interactions with users andvendors, and industry road-mapping activities

• Capture relevant definitions, theory, algorithms, and data models as partof the science of manufacturing system integration

• Develop draft interface specifications of production scheduling, layout,machine modeling, machining and assembly process plans using theIMES methodology to advance the near term interoperability ofengineering, simulation, and production management applications

• Implement test beds and proof-of-concept demonstrations to show thefeasibility of candidate specifications

• Work with IMS MISSION and Object Management Group SIMSIG todevelop define, evaluate, test, and promote candidate standards

• Work with NASSCO and Atlantic Marine Shipyards to develop prototypesimulation solutions for U.S. shipbuilding industry under the NationalShipbuilding Research Program

IMS MISSION Project

Modeling and Simulation Environments for DesignPlanning and Operation of Globally DistributedEnterprises

– integrate and utilize new, knowledge-awaretechnologies of distributed persistent datamanagement, as well as conventional methodsand tools, in various enterprise domains, to meetthe needs of globally distributed enterprisemodeling and simulation.

Page 18: Presented by Chuck McLean Manufacturing Simulation Sponsored Documents/McCleanNist.pdffor Engineering & Manufacturing I nformation T echnology. Manufacturing Simulation This presentation

IMS MISSION Outlook

• MISSION expects to produce:

– increased interaction among vendors regardingsimulation issues

– better understanding by vendors of manufacturers’simulation needs

– demonstrations of integration of globallydistributed components

Page 19: Presented by Chuck McLean Manufacturing Simulation Sponsored Documents/McCleanNist.pdffor Engineering & Manufacturing I nformation T echnology. Manufacturing Simulation This presentation

Scope of distributed manufacturing simulation

1) Multiple simulation software processes that are independentlyexecuting and interacting with each other. Software may have beendeveloped by different software vendors. Modules may run ondifferent computer systems in geographically dispersed locations.

2) A distributed computing environment where other non-simulationmanufacturing software applications are running and interacting withone or more simulation systems. Engineering systems may interactwith simulation systems through service requests.

3) A distributed manufacturing simulation system comprised of multiplefunctional modules that together form a system, such as modelbuilders, simulation engines, display systems, analysis tools, etc.

Page 20: Presented by Chuck McLean Manufacturing Simulation Sponsored Documents/McCleanNist.pdffor Engineering & Manufacturing I nformation T echnology. Manufacturing Simulation This presentation

Why build distributed manufacturing simulation systems?

• Model supply chains across multiple organizations wheresome of the information about the inner workings of eachorganization may be hidden from supply chain members

• Model multiple levels of manufacturing systems wherelower level simulations generate information that feeds intohigher level models

• Multiple types of systems in a single factory with differentsimulation requirements such that an individual simulationvendor’s product does not provide the capabilities tomodel all capabilities of interest

Page 21: Presented by Chuck McLean Manufacturing Simulation Sponsored Documents/McCleanNist.pdffor Engineering & Manufacturing I nformation T echnology. Manufacturing Simulation This presentation

More reasons to build …

• Hide proprietary information about the internal workings of asimulated system, e.g., an equipment vendor might hideinformation via run-time simulation models

• Create low-cost run-time simulation models with limitedfunctionality that can be integrated into larger simulations

• Take advantage of additional computing power afforded bydistributing execution across multiple processors

• Provide simultaneous access to models for users in differentlocations (support remote collaborative work)

• Provide different numbers and types of licenses for differentfunctions supporting simulation activities (model building,visualization, execution, analysis)
