- Abstract
A reconfigurable modular approach is proposed to construct a responsive manufacturing system to satisfy customers’ varied demand. In order to achieve this, the system employs a three-level control structure. We present the system’s dynamic behavior and optimal layout, as well as performance measures. Entropic measurement of demand and factory capacity is used to determine the local optimal strategy under dynamic scheduling. We conclude this paper using cases of successful fast-responding corporations to gain insight into
responsive reconfigurable systems.
