A recently developed alternative to traditional production planning and control systems such as material requirement planning(MRP) and just-in-time(JIT) is the drum-buffer-rope(DBR). The DBR now being implemented in growing number of manufacturing organizations enables better scheduling and decision making on the shop floor. In implementing the DBR, however, an information system is usually needed to transmit the signal that runs from the constraint to material release. In this paper we propose a different mechanism to transmit the signal in the case that the demand of product is stable, which uses the well-known Kanban system. To improve the reality, this paper shows and example of the Kanban format, its operation, and calculation of the number of Kanbans.

This paper develops MRP system with two-types of lead time(average lead time and emergent lead time). In this proposed MRP system, Material Requirement Planning is scheduled by using average lead time, but the emergent lead time is used only when start date of planned order is past. Btrieve data management technique and Stack structure are used for recalculating procedure of planned order with the TURBO PASCAL Version 5.5. An example is also considered.

Sequential Numbering System(SNS) is one of the production and inventory management system, which is more effective and practical to minor enterprises than Material Requirement Planning (MRP) system or Just-in-Time(JIT) system. The purpose of the paper is the structured analysis of SNS as the first phase of software development. Data Flow Diagram(DFD), Data Dictionary(DD), and Mini-Specs are used to analyze the system through the second level. The result can be exploited to SNS software design and programming.

The purpose of this thesis is to develop a micro-computer application for GT/MRP (group technology/material requirement planning) integrated system for efficient management of production scheduling. GT and MRP system have been found to have several drawbacks in practice. By GT and MRP system, however, it should be able to construct a GT/MRP integrated system that possesses the advantages of both concepts while alleviating their individual limitations.

Production planning is a key part of production management of manufacturing enterprises. Since computerization began, modern production planning has been developed starting with Material Requirement Planning (MRP), and today Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS), Supply Chain Management (SCM) has been spreading and advanced. However, in the shipbuilding field, rather than applying these general-purpose production planning methodologies, in most cases, each shipyard has developed its own production planning system. This is because the applications of general-purpose production planning methods are limited due to the order-taking industry such as shipbuilding with highly complicated construction process consisting of millions of parts per ship. This study introduces the design and development of the production planning system reflecting the production environment of heavy shipyards in Korea. Since Korean shipyards such as Hyundai, Daewoo and Samsung build more than 10 ships per year (50-70 ships in the case of large shipyards), a planning system for the mixed production with complex construction processes is required. This study draws requirements using PI/BPR (process innovation and business process reengineering) methodology to develop a production planning system for shipyards that simultaneously build several ships. Then, CBD software development methodology was applied for the design and implementation of planning system with drawn requirements. It is expected that the systematic development procedure as well as the requirements and functional elements for the development of the shipyard production planning system introduced in this study will be able to present important guidelines in the related research field of shipbuilding management.

Material Requirement Planning(MRP) has been the most widely implemented large scale production management system in the manufacturing industry. Computerization of MRP systems involves, in general, Bill Of Material(BOM) explosion algolithms which usually takes heavy computation time. In order to improve the effectiveness of the MRP systems, we propose to build a logical BOM database in advance, which reflects the Join operations for the BOM explosion. It reduces the response time for the BOM indented explosion. It reduces the MRP processing time. It also increased main memory utilization.

Modern production control systems based on MRPⅡ (Manufacturing Resource planning) didn't solved about the capacity and lead time problems. In the past, It solved that problems under deterministic. Therefore, the problem about determination of correct lead time and finite capacity are studied continuously by researchers. Now, we need to a integrated method that is from low level to high level instead of top-down in MRP. In this research uses the MRP-C(Capacitated Material Requirement Planning) concept that is more efficient then MRP system for capacity and flexible lead time , and shows the MRP-C algorithm and the prototype.

This paper has developed the computer integration manufacturing system and Internet based tele-operations. The functions of CIMS include production planing, material requirement planning, work order generation, process control, quality control, shipping planning, warehouse and inventory management and material cost accounting.[1] In this paper focuses on the automatic warehouse control and inventory management by developing the information system as well as the Internet-based integration. The system overview is divided into three parts, the mechanical system, the computer and developed software to control and manage the information and the communication system. The mechanical system consists of the warehouse machine and forklift mobile robot controlled by programmable logic controller (PLC). The computer works on many functions such as control station interfaces with PLC, managing database and inventory, and Internet server to broadcast the inventory database to users via World Wide Web and monitoring the operation on web camera. Our scheme the inventory database can be checked easily anywhere and anytime when the users connect to the Internet. In this article, the lead-time and inventory level can be reduced therefore the holding cost and operating time is also decreased.

In recent, most of automobile industries adopt the concept of Just In Time production. The paternal manufacturers require their suppliers to supply parts just in time. It is very important for a subcontractor to produce the parts in the appointed time of delivery. This study develops a production information system for Woosin Industry, which is one of such subcontractor of Hundai Motors Company(HNC). The system is developed on Client/Server system. Firstly, three modules are developed, i.e., scheduling module to make a schedule, the subsystem of sales management to deal with the information about order of HMC, delivery of parts, and bill collecting, and the module for supporting material requirement planning and purchace of material.

Manufacturing Resources Planning (MRPII) is one kind of manufacturing information system that can help manufacturing companies gain competitive advantages. It is estimated that more than one hundred MRPII systems are available in the market, many of them are mature enough to solve most operational issues in accordance with users' requirements. More often than not, many of these systems provide more functions than a company expects. Manufacturing companies worldwide have attempted to implement these MRPII systems, however, many companies experienced failure (Turbide, 1996) due to managerial rather than technical issues. The authors propose an approach utilising a roadmap to integrate BPR and the MRPII implementation in order to overcome this difficulty. A detail road map is developed to guide this implementation, which is designed using a hierarchical analysis technique known as Integrated DEFinition Method (IDEF). IDEF is a systematic manufacturing management and integration-modeling tool. The proposed approach is implemented and illustrated using a reference company and the results indicated that 66% reduction in errors for maintaining the bills of materials system; 99% reduction in time to carry out material requirement planning; and 70% reduction in time previously taken for non-productive discussions.
