Manufacturing Enterprise Systems

archived

The MES program supports research on design, planning, and control of operations in manufacturing enterprises. Research is supported that impacts the analytical and computational techniques relevant to extended enterprise operations and that offer the prospect of implementable solutions. Topics of interest include analytical and computational tools for optimal planning, monitoring, control, and scheduling of manufacturing and distribution operations, including maintenance and repair. Of particular interest are methods that incorporate increasingly rich enterprise process and product information and models, methods that address sustainability, and methods that incorporate characteristic uncertainty and risk.Investigators wishing to serve on a proposal review panel should email the Program Director with a short biographical sketch with a list of areas of expertise.
