Title
The process of process reengineering: integration of discrete event simulation models with framework-based business applications
Abstract
Simulation models and business application software as they are used for decision support in enterprise management are both representations of an enterprise's actual operations. This paper describes a unified simulation and application framework where it is possible to represent the entire performance process along a supply chain in a unified business model, improve its performance with discrete event simulation technology, and then generate and implement the corresponding business application software from the same unified model, based on a so-called framework-based application technology which allows implementation of changes derived from simulation analysis with minimal effort and time. This enables a company to optimise not only operational processes such as shopfloor or warehouse operations but also business processes such as planning, order management and scheduling through simulation.
