In discrete/stochastic simulation, we are interested in ® Entity idleness ® Entity travel time ® Entity time in the system ® Resource utilization ® All of the above
In discrete/stochastic simulation, which of the following components has time duration? ® Events ® Activities ® Entities ® Resources ® All of the above
Simulation, including discrete/stochastic simulation, is appropriate for which of the following three decision environments? ® Decision Making (DM) under Certainty ® DM under risk and uncertainty ® DM under change and complexity
Math programming models, like the transportation and transshipment models we looked at, are appropriate for which decision making environment ® Decision Making (DM) under Certainty ® DM under risk and uncertainty ® DM under change and complexity
What is reduced cost? ® Reduced cost is only zero when the associated decision variable is nonzero. When a decision variable IS zero, the reduced cost tells us by how much the associated cost//profit coefficient must be changed in order to get that decision variable to take on a value above zero.
What is shadow price? ® Shadow price measures the amount of change we can expect in the objective function value accruing from a unit increase in a constraint right-hand side.

Southwest Airlines turns at a gate…. . ® What are the entities? ® Name some events… ® Name some activities… ® What is the difference between an activity and an event? ® What is the relationship between an event and an activity?
Chapter 15 – ERP ® Inventory for Dependent Demand will NOT be covered…. ® Exam coverage of this chapter starts on page 700
What is the information architecture modern ERP systems are currently based on? ®Mainframe/glass house ®Client/server ®N-tier distributed ®None of these
Every application software package consists of 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Presentation management component Business logic management component Data management component All of the above 1 and 2 only
ERP ® Is software that organizes and manages a company’s business processes by sharing info across functional areas ® Large caps have been there and done that—transitioned to ERP ® Mid and small caps are mostly there ® This concept has been around since 1995 ® The road to implementation has been rough
More ERP ® Based on an N-tier distributed architecture ® Not on mainframe glasshouse
• Advantages of N-tier architecture ® Provides for data integration ® Better usage of MIPS on both PCs and servers ® Solves the 36 -month backlog of the centralized MIS shop ® Enables a better career path for the MIS professional
N-Tier distributed architecture ® Is decentralized or centralized, or some combination of these (which? ) ® Utilizes thick clients or thin clients (which? )
ERP Modules ® Sales & distribution ® Production & Materials Management ® Quality management ® Human resource management ® Project management ® Accounting and controlling/finance ® Supply chain management ® Customer relationship management
ERP Terms ® Best-of-breed ® Collaborative product commerce ® Customer relationship management ® Supply chain management ® XML
Re-engineered Computer Architectures ® Started with mainframe/glasshouse ® Migrated to client/server ® Evolved to N-tier distributed
Why did such re-engineering occur? ® There was no data integration ® MIPs on mainframes were hugely expensive and very much in demand ® MIPs on PCs were idle 95% of the time and extremely cheap ® Backlogs for MIS shops were at 36 months ® Developing new applications were slow and expensive
Distributed architectures solved these problems ® Data resides behind a single database engine
Components of any Software Application
Components in brief
Mainframe Architecture (circa 1993) Mainframe Computer
First solution: Client/server architecture Thick Clients (PM, BL) Database Server (DM)
Modern solution of today: NTIER DISTRIBUTED ARCHITECTURE ® This is a distributed architecture like client/server, but now the application is distributed across three or more computing boxes on the network
N-Tier distributed Architecture Thin Clients (1/2 PM) Database Application Server 2 Data Server (DM) Application Server 1
Take a closer look at the Application Servers Application Server runs the business logic component and half ot the presentation management component—the portion the serves out the web pages
Comments on N-Tier Distributed Architecture ® Clients are called ‘thin’ because the only thing running on them is the Internet Browser ® The IT professional doesn’t have to install anything on the client ® More re-use is possible—specifically that internet browser
Advantages of N-Tier Distributed Architecture ® Like Client/server, it accommodates enterprise visibility because the data are integrated and accessible through a single DBMS—that Oracle engine ® Applications can be built rapidly because there is abundant reuse The DM module is reused ® Half of the PM component is reused ® There are reuse opportunities within the rest of the PM component and the BL component as well ®
More advantages of N-Tier ® IT professionals don’t have to be remotely loaned out to marketing, management, accounting and finance ® They can now be centrally located and managed where career paths will exist for them
Application Servers do Two things ® They serve out web pages upon request ® They do all of the business logic processing.
ERP Modules ® Finance/Accounting ® Sales Marketing ® Production/Materials Management ® Human Resources ® Supply Chain Management ® Customer Relation Management
These modules would be placed in a ® Thin client ® Data server ® Application server ® Mainframe WHICH? ?
ERP Implementation Methodology ® Analyze business processes ® Choose modules to implement ® Align level of sophistication ® Finalize delivery and access ® Link with External Partners
Customer Relationship Management ® CRM software plans and executes business processes that involve customer interaction, such as marketing, sales, order fulfillment, and service (not manufacturing) ® CRM is focused on customers, not products
Collaborative Product Commerce ® Software concerned with new product design and development, as well as product lifecycle management
Connectivity ® A common data management component ® API’s (Application Programming Interfaces) ® EAI (Enterprise Application Integration) ® XML (Extensible Markup Language) ® Dr. Viator (accounting) teaches a course in this language
Chapter 10 --Supply Chain Management--SCM ® Plants/warehouses/distribution/ information infrastructure ® Most of America’s product gets moved by _____ (air, water, rail, truck, pipeline). ® What is COVISINT? ? ® Collaboration, Vision, INTegration ® What benefits accrue from SCM?
What’s new and exciting in SCM? ? ® Information Technology (specifically enterprise visibility) ® Has changed everything ® SCM Software modules within ERP systems ® I 2 Technologies ® Has reduced uncertainty ® Which has reduced _______ l ® INVENTORY Which is a form of ________ l INSURANCE
Inventory turns ® Calculated on an annual basis ® The more, the better ® Inputs: ® Cost of goods sold ® Average aggregate value of inventory ® = (cost of goods sold)/(avg aggregate value of inventory)
Average aggregate value of inventory ® Calculated by taking the product of the unit cost with the number of units and then summing these products for all inventory categories
Days of supply ® Avg agg value of Inv*365/Ann cost of goods sold ® Or simply… 365/inventory turns
Manufacturing Inventory Types ® Raw materials inventory ® Work-in-process inventory ® Finished goods inventory
Supply Chain Management Terms ® ® ® ® ® Bullwhip effect Collaborative planning, forecasting and replenishment Continuous replenishment Core competencies Cross-docking E-business E-marketplaces E-procurement EDI Inventory turns Landed cost Logistics Order fulfillment RFID Sourcing Vendor-management inventory ® Warehouse management system ® ® ®
Simulation ® Two types— ® Continuous deterministic ® VENSIM is an example ® Discrete stochastic ® PROMODEL is an example ® Each of these two types differ by method of time advance
Time advance in continuous deterministic simulation ® Time is advanced in small, equidistant increments ® The simulation engine is really integrating differential equations
Time advance in discrete stochastic simulation ® Time is advanced from event to the next chronological event
MONTE CARLO— ® The computer-generation of random numbers using an
Which simulation gestalt uses activities, events, entities and their attributes? ® Continuous deterministic? ® Discrete stochastic?
The Excel function RAND() generates… ® Normally-distributed random variates ® Gamma-distributed random variates ® Uniformly-distributed random variates ® Exponentially-distributed random variates
To get a non-uniform random variate, we often start with ® A normal random variate ® A lognormal random variate ® A uniform random variate ® A triangular random variate
That’s it from here…GOOD LUCK Tomorrow!!
