Abstract:
Modeling and performance evaluation of current production systems
gains more and more importance because of growing system complexity
and production costs. Therefore tools and methods are needed that
allow a simple modeling and performance evaluation of systems. The
goal of this paper is to give a short introduction into the
specification of production systems using the model description
language MOSEL (MOdeling Specification and Evaluation Language) and
the analysis tool MOSES (MOdeling Specification and Evaluation System)
which uses MOSEL as input. Therefore the characteristics of the
components of production systems (like batch processing or unreliable
machines) are introduced. For each of these characteristics a MOSEL
specification is given and explained. On the example of a wafer
production system it is shown that using our specification language
also realistic production systems can be specified and analyzed.
