Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Manufacturing Variability, Paul Savory
Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Manufacturing Variability, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
Classroom exercise for IMSE 150 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This goal is to introduce freshman industrial engineering students to various aspects of industrial engineering and being an engineer. This fun and interactive penny manufacturing game highlights the impact of variability, capacity, and overtime.

Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Bad Human Factor Designs, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
Classroom exercise for IMSE 150 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This goal is to introduce freshman industrial engineering students to various aspects of industrial engineering and being an engineer. Ergonomics or human factors does not only encompass product design, but safety, and product use. A simple definition is “to make the work place safe and less stressful on the worker.” Human factors or ergonomics impacts all aspects of our lives. Let's consider each of the following examples of bad human factor designs.

Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
Classroom exercise for IMSE 150 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This goal is to introduce freshman industrial engineering students to various aspects of industrial engineering and being an engineer. All industrial engineering, product designers, and managers must at some point in their career face an issue that requires some amount of ethical or moral judgment. Consider the following scenarios and discuss with your group members what each of you would do.
Simulation Modeling Presentations: The Life Cycle, Edward Yellig, Paul Savory
Simulation Modeling Presentations: The Life Cycle, Edward Yellig, Paul Savory
Department of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Faculty Publications
A typical large scale simulation modeling project spans many months and encompasses activities such as problem definition, data collection, model development, experimentation, and scenario analysis. During the life cycle of a simulation project, numerous presentations are made to many different types of audiences. The purpose of these presentations will vary from seeking project approval, requesting information, discussing simulation model features, verifying the model, validating the model, presenting the experimental results, and offering model conclusions. This paper will discuss presentation techniques we used during a year-long simulation-modeling project. We will highlight techniques used for defining the purpose of each presentation, identifying …
