Abstract: In modern telecommunications industry, demand &
supply chain management (DSCM) needs reliable design and
versatile tools to control the material flow. The objective for efficient
DSCM is reducing inventory, lead times and related costs in order to
assure reliable and on-time deliveries from manufacturing units
towards customers. In this paper the multi-rate expert system based
methodology for developing simulation tools that would enable
optimal DSCM for multi region, high volume and high complexity
manufacturing environment was proposed.
Abstract: In this paper, we have presented the effect of varying
time-delays on performance and stability in the single-channel multirate
sampled-data system in hard real-time (RT-Linux) environment.
The sampling task require response time that might exceed the
capacity of RT-Linux. So a straight implementation with RT-Linux is
not feasible, because of the latency of the systems and hence,
sampling period should be less to handle this task. The best sampling
rate is chosen for the sampled-data system, which is the slowest rate
meets all performance requirements. RT-Linux is consistent with its
specifications and the resolution of the real-time is considered 0.01
seconds to achieve an efficient result. The test results of our
laboratory experiment shows that the multi-rate control technique in
hard real-time operating system (RTOS) can improve the stability
problem caused by the random access delays and asynchronization.
