Summary |
"Rapid Modelling and Quick Response" presents new research developments in the fields of rapid modelling and quick response linked with performance improvements (based on lead time reduction, etc., as well as financial performance measures). This volume follows on from Rapid Modelling for Increasing Competitiveness, the first Rapid Modelling Conference proceedings. The papers and teaching cases in this book were presented at the second Rapid Modelling Conference: 'Quick Response - Intersection of Theory and Practice. The main focus of this collection is the transfer of knowledge from |
