Goldratt박사에 의해 제창된 TOC(Theory of Constraints)는 제약조건을 찾아 개선시켜 없애고 시스템 심과를 높일 수 있는 방안을 찾는 제약이론이다. 생산공정을 포함한 모든 분야에서 제약이란 없을 수가 없다. 따라서 기존의 MRP나 PERT/CPM과 같은 무한 자원 스케줄링으로는 예상하지 못한 문제가 도출될 수 밖에 없는 한계를 제약공정의 자원능력이 유한하다는 가정에서 출발하는 제약이론으로 자원활용의 최적화를 도모할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 TOC와 많은 유사점을 가지고 있는 생산시스템인 JIT와 비교하여 아직 국내에는 활발한 연구가 이루어지고 있지 않은 TOC를 기반으로 최적 생산시스템을 연구하고자 한다.

TOC(Theory of Constraints) - the emphasis of this philosophy was on identifying and eliminating constraints(bottle-necks) in the system. TOC solves this and optimizes whole system by improving manufacturing constraints that limit system result. In this paper, it is shown that the concept of the "delayed differentiation" can be applied for enhancing the efficiency of the time buffer and thus reducing the of the time buffer.

A fact that limits a company's ability to achieve more of its goal is referred to as a 'constraint' shipbuilding industries need to identify and manage constraints. The theory of constraints is evolved out of the problems of bottleneck formation. This happens and is conserved for the formulation if various real time problems for arriving standard uniquely addressed problems If, for example, the goal of a shipbuilding industry is to make money now and in the future, it is suggested that TOC will enable th mangers of the company to do so. TOC, focuses the organization scare resources on improving the performance of the true constraints, and therefore the bottom line of the organization. An attempt is made for the implantation of the theory into real world shipyard decision support mechanism.

The theory of constraints (TOC) has become a valuable system in modern operations management. Using the ideas and methods of the TOC, companies can achieve a large reduction of work-in-process and finished-goods inventories, significant improvement in scheduling performance, and substantial earnings increase. The purpose of this paper is to calculate the optimal size of the time buffer which is used to accommodate disruptions in production processes and provide maximum productivity of capacity constrained resources. After the problem formulation in terms of single server queueing model, we observed the system behavior by sensitivity analyses.

In Competitive environment Information Technology applications have the potential to create competitive advantage. This study is attemp to explain the impact of the TOC and Information Technology in Operations management. With the application of the TOC Pricinples to Information Technology, it is easy to exploit efficiently industrial organizations' constraints and elevate its constaints. The objective of this study descrive a structure of TOC, necessity of Information technology, and alignment of TOC and Information Technology.

Recently, many business and government organizations have benefitted by executing projects using TOC-CCPM(Theory of Constraints-Critical Chain Project Management). In parallel, Earned Value Management(EVM) metrics have also become popular. Many organizations like US government requires that all large projects measure and report project progress status using EVM. Thus, project management in business fields such as plant construction, IT development, ship building need to integrate TOC-CCPM and EVM in oder to keep and reduce the delivery date of projects for improvement of customer satisfaction and enlargement of business opportunity. This paper proposes the scheme and case of developing the Synchro-EVM system which TOC-CCPM and EVM are connected.

This paper was concerned about case study for preventing WMDSs(Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders) by using Thinking Process of TOC(Theory Of Constraints), Unfortunately, the number of WMDSs are rising steadily in auto-part manufacturer. These WMDSs have on worse and worse influence not only on the competition of enterprise but on the life quality of a worker. The research results are helpful to establish the preventing WMDSs and improvement of workplace environments for small-medium sized auto-part company.

As the flourish of today's supply chain, the traditional model of replenishment will cause accumulation of excessive inventory to the retailers and customers, or cause shortages and inability to meet the demands. To solve this problem, Theory of Constraints (TOC) proposed the replenishment model of demand-pull, combined with the establishment of factory-ware-house to achieve performance improvement. In the absence of empirical research, this study applied the Bean Game developed by Dr. Goldratt to design a supply chain system for different scenarios, in order to allow players and managers better understanding and supporting the TOC replenishment method through the operations of the game.

There is a high demand for the diagnostic medical blood analyzer in the global medical device market. The domestic market is in infant stage, but expected to grow very fast. In this study, we attempt to provide several ways for production improvement in order to secure price competitiveness of domestic medical blood analyzer. For this purpose we identify the problems of current production process using ARENA simulation and suggest several alternatives for productivity improvement.. Five steps of TOC (Theory of Constraints) and ARENA simulation are employed to predict productivity of each alternative and to suggest further improvement.

Production Improvement Method in TOC consists of five steps, but it is very difficult for most firms to implement it because it lacks the detailed methods at each step. This paper suggests some of detailed methods to implement the TOC. In the first step, computer simulation is used to identify the constraints in production lines. Subsequently, ASP, AUT, and CM calculation are defined for the second step, which are helpful to exploit the company's constraints. We also suggest the OEE method to effectively exploit the constraints of production lines in the factory. Finally the TOC/OEE procedure is suggested to optimize the investment in the fourth step. As an illustrative example, we introduce a case of a wafer manufacturer to adopt the suggested methods. The benefits of implementating the suggested methods are addressed in the framework of the balanced scorecard.
