  • Development of a discrete-event, object-oriented framework for network-centric simulation modeling using Java

    Creator:
    Colvin, Kurt
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this research is to develop a network-centric simulation modeling framework that can be used to build simulation models through the use of Internet-based resources. An object-oriented programming approach was used to build a Java-based modeling framework focused on modeling a semiconductor fabrication system. This research is...

  • Factors that affect task prioritization on the flight deck

    Creator:
    Colvin, Kurt W.
    Abstract:
    Cockpit Task Management (CTM) is the initiation, monitoring, prioritization, execution, and termination of multiple, concurrent tasks by night crews. The primary research question posed in the current research is what factors affect task prioritization on the modern day, commercial flight deck. The conventional CTM literature was reviewed as an introduction...

  • Development of a process for fabricating high-aspect-ratio, meso-scale geometries in stainless steel

    Creator:
    Walker, Benjamin A.
    Abstract:
    Miniature energy and chemical systems (MECS) are miniature thermal, fluid, and chemical devices in the mesoscale size range between a sugar cube and a human fist. MECS take advantage of improved rates of mass and heat transfer that have been observed at the microscale. There are many potential applications for...

  • An object oriented intelligent agent simulation environment

    Creator:
    Liang, Chien-Tsun
    Abstract:
    Manufacturing intelligent agent simulation has not been widely applied in industry because of its application complexity. This complexity, which includes choosing priority machines or jobs, determining machine maintenance schedules, and allocating working shifts and breaks, requires intelligent decision making. Manufacturing systems are strongly influenced by intelligent decision makers. Especially for...

  • Functional analysis of flight crew performance : a systems engineering perspective on crew resource management

    Creator:
    Sukhia, Cherag R.
    Abstract:
    Many failures of interpersonal communication and coordination in the aircraft cockpit have been found to occur as a result of poor management of flightdeck 'resources'. Crew Resource Management (CRM) is a concept that has evolved within the aviation community to specifically address this issue of resource management. The concept of...
