Title: Seting optimal planned leadtimes in configure to order manufacturing systems. Abstract: We study the production planning in Configure To Order (CTO) manufacturing systems. The system consists of multiple stages that converge to one final assembly stage. Leadtimes per stage are stochastic due to extensive testing at the end of each stage. Our goal is to determine optimal planned leadtimes for each stage such that the total expected production costs are minimized. We derive Newsvendor equations for each individual stage. This set of equations is solved and the exact optimal planned leadtimes for each stage are obtained. These equations also give an important insight in the dynamics of the system, since they indicate to what extend a specific stage can be blamed for the lateness of the final product.

DESIGN, IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION OF A HIGH-SPEED ON-CHIP PACKET SWITCH
YILDIZ, Ayhan Sefa; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-2-9)
In this thesis, an on-chip packet switch architecture to interconnect modules on System on Chip (SoC) platforms at high line speeds is proposed. The particular target application for the proposed on-chip switch is hardware accelerated cloud computing systems. To this end, FPGA Accelerator Cards (FAC) are employed in heterogeneous cloud data centers which implement hardware accelerators on the FPGA. The data from the cloud user is brought on the accelerators and delivered after processing through high-speed ...
Testing effectiveness and effort in software product lines
Çöteli, Mert Burkay; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
Software product lines (SPL) aim to decrease the total software development cost by the help of reusability and variability. However, the increasing number of variations for the delivery types of products would result in increasing cost of the verification and validation process. Total testing cost of development can also be decreased by reusing test cases and scripts. The main objective of this study is to increase testing effectiveness while minimizing testing effort. Four different cases consisting of As...
Reconfigurability of behavioural specifications for manufacturing systems
Schmidt, Klaus Verner (Informa UK Limited, 2017-01-01)
Reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMS) support flexibility in the product variety and the configuration of the manufacturing system itself in order to enable quick adjustments to new products and production requirements. As a consequence, an essential feature of RMS is their ability to rapidly modify the control strategy during run-time. In this paper, the particular problem of changing the specified operation of a RMS, whose logical behaviour is modelled as a finite state automaton, is addressed. The n...
Cost-effective fault tolerant routing in networks on chip
Adanova, Venera; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2008)
Growing complexity of Systems on Chip (SoC) introduces interconnection problems. As a solution for communication bottleneck the new paradigm, Networks on Chip (NoC), has been proposed. Along with high performance and reliability, NoC brings in area and energy constraints. In this thesis we mainly concentrate on keeping communication-centric design environment fault-tolerant while considering area overhead. The previous researches suggest the adoption solution for fault-tolerance from multiprocessor architec...
Performance Evaluation and Comparison of Single-Phase and Two-Phase Interleaving Flyback Micro-Inverters for Grid Connected PV Systems
Kavurucu, Semih; Hava, Ahmet Masum (2014-06-04)
Flyback converter based single-stage, microinverters are attractive solution for interfacing individual PV modules to the grid due to their low cost, high performance, ease of implementation, and galvanic isolation. In such applications, discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) of operation and interleaving techniques bring additional size and performance advantages such as eliminating reverse recovery loss, switching stress, EMI radiation, and improving efficiency. This paper focuses on performance evaluation o...
