Since manufacturing has acquired industrial relevance, the problem
of adequately sizing manufacturing plants has always been discussed
and has represented a di?cult problem for the enterprises, which
prepare strategic plans to competitively operate in the market.
Manufact- ing capacity is quite expensive and its exploitation and
planning must be carefully designed in order to avoid large wastes,
or to preserve the survival of enterprises in the market. Indeed a
good choice of ma- facturing capacity can result in improved
performance in terms of cost, innovativeness, ?exibility, quality
and service delivery. Unfortunately the capacity planning problem
is not easy to solve because of the lack of clarity in the
decisional process, the large number of variables involved, the
high correlation among variables and the high level of uncertainty
that inevitably a?ects decisions. The aim of this book is to
provide a framework and speci?c methods and tools for the selection
and con?guration of capacity of Advanced Manufacturing Systems
(AMS). In particular this book de?nes an - chitecture where the
multidisciplinary aspects of the designofAMSare properly organized
and addressed. The tool will support the decisi- maker in the
de?nition of the con?guration of the system which is best suited
for the particular competitive context where the ?rm operates or
wants tooperate. Thisbookisofinterest for academic researchers in
the ?eldofind- trial engineering and particularly indicated in the
areas of operations and manufacturing strategy.
