| Summary: | (i.e. the instructor and students), the Virtual Factory Access Relational Database Management System. The Virtual and implemented. The model includes those elements necessary batch sizes on cycle time. classroom factory facility. In an attempt to solve this classroom. Most of the software however, is intended either Database Connectivity (ODBC) protocol and the Structured Database, and the Virtual Factory Machine Emulator. The emulator communicates with the database using the Open Environment in the classroom and a discussion of how the examples that illustrate how to use the Virtual Factory Factory Machine Emulator is the students' interface into the for a virtual factory and the parts to be produced. The help demonstrate each concept to be conveyed. A prevailing help students grasp the concepts taught to them in the implemented in three main components: the factory operators is intended to be used in the classroom by the instructor to Little's Law, push versus pull systems, and the effects of maintain an extremely expensive, and possibly dangerous, object oriented programming (OOP) techniques. The machine presents a design and prototype for a pedagogical tool which problem in the Industrial Engineering domain is how to problem, the Virtual Factory Environment model was designed provide manufacturing students, studying production control, Query Language (SQL) Finally, this thesis provides two the needed factory experience without having to build and to be used outside of the classroom, or to teach a subject to emulate a real factory for educational purposes and are Today there are many academic software programs available to virtual factory and was written in Microsoft Visual C++ using Virtual Factory Database houses all of the characteristics Virtual Factory Database was implemented using the Microsoft Virtual Factory Environment can be used to demonstrate without the classroom or instructor entirely.
