Abstract

The proliferation of powerful low cost computer systems has enabled traditional tools of manufacturing to be imbedded in an environment of automated subsystems. Manufacturing technology now includes utilizing computer technology for integrating and managing these subsystems. The Manufacturing Automation Protocol (MAP) provides an infrastructure necessary for linking these computer systems and discrete event simulation is an alternative for integration and management of the manufacturing subsystems.
