Production Process Improvement in Vietnam Through Research and Application of Advanced Discrete Event Simulation Modeling Techniques

The paper details studying the discrete-event simulation modeling methodology and its application in production manufacturing in Viet Nam. The manufacturing industry is a complex discrete event dynamic system, and accidents may occur in the production line. For example, poor equipment layout design, or idle waiting state of personnel and equipment due to station blockage of the production line, or the warehouse management is unreasonable, the supply exceeds the demand, or the supply exceeds the market, resulting in loss or waste. It isn’t easy to get the optimal solution by the traditional analytical method, but simulation can solve it. Mainly, this research focuses on problem formulation, setting of project objectives, model conceptualization, verification and validation, and experimental design.
