Comparing methods for redesigning, measuring and analysing Production systems

Paper in proceeding, 2011

This paper reviews 10 methods or models that are developed to redesign, measuring or analysing a production system. Furthermore, a comparison is done between the methods and models based on four focus areas with the aim of putting the developed DYNAMO++ and concept model into perspective due to the other methods and models. A literature study is used in order to review the methods and the focus areas. The result shows that the DYNAMO++ and the Concept model could be a golden way between the most sociocognitive models and the technical-physical models when measuring and analysing a production system. The model also takes into consideration both physical and cognitive Levels of Automation in a more delicate scale than the other methods and models which makes the task allocation more precise.
