Title
General manufacturing applications: feasibility for automatic data collection
Abstract
It is argued that the data collection process is the most crucial and time consuming stage in the model building process. This is primarily due to the influence that data has in providing accurate simulation results. Data collection is an extremely time consuming process predominantly because the task is manually orientated. Hence, automating this process of data collection would be extremely advantageous. This paper presents how simulation tools could utilize the Corporate Business Systems as the potential source for simulation data. Subsequently a unique interface could be developed and implemented to provide this data directly to the simulation tool. Such an interface would prove to be an invaluable tool for users of simulation.
