Semester Project For Engineering Management, Paul Savory
Semester Project For Engineering Management, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
This is the team-based, semester project for my advanced engineering management course at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This project focuses on having student teams plan a successful, professional, innovative and enjoyable professional conference. This is an activity that many of of them will have the opportunity to be involved with during their career. The project is divided into nine tasks with peer feedback and rework part of the process.
Imse Alumni Survey Of Abet Program Educational Objectives, Paul Savory
Imse Alumni Survey Of Abet Program Educational Objectives, Paul Savory
Department of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Faculty Publications
This report showcases the results of the Department of Industrial and Management System Engieering's survey of alumni regarding our updated ABET Program Educational Objectives. The Program Educational Objectives represent the expected characteristics of industrial engineering graduates within three to five years of receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial and Management Systems Engineering from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. A total of 76 responses were received. The alumni survey responses indicate strong agreement and approval for the new Program Educational Objectives. The associated comments will be used by the IMSE faculty to future refine the course curriculum to ensure that …
A Template-Based Data Specification Framework For Modeling Physical Security Systems, Ashu Guru, Paul Savory
A Template-Based Data Specification Framework For Modeling Physical Security Systems, Ashu Guru, Paul Savory
Department of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Faculty Publications
Simulation studies often fail to provide any useful results due to its success being highly dependent on the skills of the analyst to understand a system and then correctly identify all the required data parameters and dependent variables. This paper describes a template-based framework to help identify and specify the components and data parameters for developing models of physical security systems. The layered framework consists of fifteen templates built on top of fourteen data primitives representing 119 data parameters. The modeling framework has been programmed as an internet-based web application and is simulation language independent. The usefulness of the framework …
Class Exercise For Assessing Abilities And Providing A Structure For A Course, Paul Savory
Class Exercise For Assessing Abilities And Providing A Structure For A Course, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
I developed this class exercise to assess students abilities and to highlight the range of questions/issues that they will learn in my IMSE 440/840 (Discrete Event Computer Simulation) course. I draw a picture of the case scenario for students and explain the system’s operation to them. I then ask that they complete the questions regarding the system and/or how they would analyze it. Following class, I develop a summary of the range of student answers. At the next class session, I share the range of answers and share what my answers would be and how these questions/topics relate to what …
