Collaborative Engineering: Theory and Practice offers insights into the methods and techniques involved in implementing a systematic approach to the integrated, concurrent design of products and related processes, including manufacturing, product service and support. The approach discussed here will help developers consider all elements of the product life cycle from conception through disposal, including quality, cost, schedule, and user requirements. Drawing upon years of practical experience and the collective knowledge of a distinguished list of contributors, Ali Kamrani and Emad Abouel Nasr, provide a state-of-the-art discussion on collaborative engineering and discuss the following: Requirements for an open and collaborative manufacturing environment and the tools and techniques needed Template-based integrated product development cycles Six Sigma as a methodology to manage quality control within a given production cycle Supply Chain Workflow Modeling CAD, CIM and Rapid manufacturing Simulation based optimization techniques Manufacturing complexity analysis Collaborative Engineering: Theory and Practice is a must have book for industrial engineers in both industry and academia who specialize in product development and supply chain management.

Leading researchers in the field of cellular manufacturing systems from academia and industry have contributed to this volume. The book aims to report the latest developments and address the central issues in the design and implementation of cellular manufacturing systems. Cellular Manufacturing (CM) is one of the major concepts used in the design of flexible manufacturing systems. CM, also known as group production or family programming, can be described as a manufacturing technique that produces families of parts within a single line or cell of machines. The first part of the book describes

Assembly-line methods --- Manufacturing cells. --- Production planning. --- Automation.
