Introduction to Manufacturing: An Industrial Engineering and Management Perspective
Routledge
This Introduction to Manufacturing focuses students on the issues that matter to practicing industrial engineers and managers. It offers a systems perspective on designing, managing, and improving manufacturing operations. On each topic, it covers the key issues, with pointers on where to dig deeper.

It offers a systems perspective on designing, managing, and improving manufacturing operations. On each topic, it covers the key issues, with pointers on where to dig deeper.
Unlike the many textbooks on operations management, supply chain management, and process technology, this book weaves together these threads as they interact in manufacturing. It has five parts:
Getting to Know Manufacturing: Fundamental concepts of manufacturing as an economic activity, from manufacturing strategy to forecasting market demand
Engineering the Factory: Physical design of factories and processes, the necessary infrastructure and technology for manufacturing
Making Information Flow: The "central nervous system" that triggers and responds to events occurring in production
Making Materials Flow: The logistics of manufacturing, from materials handling inside the factory via warehousing to supply chain management
Enhancing Performance: Managing manufacturing performance and methods to maintain and improve it, both in times of normal operations and emergencies
Supported with rich illustrations and teaching aids, Introduction to Manufacturing is essential reading for industrial engineering and management students – of all ages and backgrounds – engaged in the vital task of making the things we all use.Other authorsSee publication -
Working with Machines
Productivity Press
How do companies in high labor cost countries manage to remain competitive?
In western manufacturing, the more manual a process, the more severe the competitive handicap of high wages. Full automation would make labor costs irrelevant but remain impractical in most industries. Most successful manufacturing processes in advanced economies are neither fully manual nor fully automatic -- they involve interactions between small numbers of highly skilled people and machines that account for…How do companies in high labor cost countries manage to remain competitive?
In western manufacturing, the more manual a process, the more severe the competitive handicap of high wages. Full automation would make labor costs irrelevant but remain impractical in most industries. Most successful manufacturing processes in advanced economies are neither fully manual nor fully automatic -- they involve interactions between small numbers of highly skilled people and machines that account for the bulk of the manufacturing costs and thereby remain competitive.
In Working with Machines: The Nuts and Bolts of Lean Operations With Jidoka, author Michel Baudin explains how performance differences that can be observed from one factory to the next are due to the way people use the machines -- from the human interfaces of individual machines to the linking of machines into cells, the management of monuments and common services, automation, maintenance, and production control.Other authorsSee publication -
Lean Logistics
Productivity Press
Are your warehouses full while production is stopped by shortages?
Do your customers complain that your lead times are too long and deliveries too late?
Lean Logistics: The Nuts and Bolts of Delivering Materials and Goods by Michel Baudin helps you determine whether you have the right supply to meet your customers’ demands, as well as the ability to organize and deliver that supply. In this cutting edge work, Baudin addresses the physical infrastructure of lean logistics and the…Are your warehouses full while production is stopped by shortages?
Do your customers complain that your lead times are too long and deliveries too late?
Lean Logistics: The Nuts and Bolts of Delivering Materials and Goods by Michel Baudin helps you determine whether you have the right supply to meet your customers’ demands, as well as the ability to organize and deliver that supply. In this cutting edge work, Baudin addresses the physical infrastructure of lean logistics and the flow of information that composes its nervous system. He demonstrates the methods that will allow you to avoid shortages while maintaining low inventories, while showing you how to take advantage of the increased capacity and flexibility generated through lean manufacturing.
This book picks up where the Baudin’s previous book, Lean Assembly, left off. -
Lean Assembly
Productivity Press
With examples drawn from aerospace, electronics, household appliance, personal products, and automotive industries, Lean Assembly covers the engineering of assembly operations through:
Characterizing the demand in terms of volume by product and product family, component consumption, seasonal variability and life cycle.
Matching the physical structure of the shop floor to the demand with the goal of approaching takt-driven production as closely as possible.
Working out the details…With examples drawn from aerospace, electronics, household appliance, personal products, and automotive industries, Lean Assembly covers the engineering of assembly operations through:
Characterizing the demand in terms of volume by product and product family, component consumption, seasonal variability and life cycle.
Matching the physical structure of the shop floor to the demand with the goal of approaching takt-driven production as closely as possible.
Working out the details of assembly tasks station by station, including station sizing, tooling, fixturing, operator instructions, part presentation, conveyance between stations, and the geometry of assembly lines as a whole.
Incorporating mistake-proofing, successive inspection, and test operations for quality assurance.
Lean Assembly differs from most other books on lean manufacturing in that it focuses on technical content as a driver for implementation methods. The emphasis is on exactly what should be done. This book should be the "dog-eared" and "penciled-in" resource on every assembly engineer's desk. -
Manufacturing Systems Analysis, With Application to Production Scheduling
Prentice Hall

Uniqueness of the Gaussian Kernel for Scale-Space Filtering
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
Refereed mathematical paper, cited in 540 publications on Research Gate.
Scale-space filtering constructs hierarchic symbolic signal descriptions by transforming the signal into a continuum of versions of the original signal convolved with a kernel containing a scale or bandwidth parameter. It is shown that the Gaussian probability density function is the only kernel in a broad class for which first-order maxima and minima, respectively, increase and decrease when the bandwidth of the…Refereed mathematical paper, cited in 540 publications on Research Gate.
Scale-space filtering constructs hierarchic symbolic signal descriptions by transforming the signal into a continuum of versions of the original signal convolved with a kernel containing a scale or bandwidth parameter. It is shown that the Gaussian probability density function is the only kernel in a broad class for which first-order maxima and minima, respectively, increase and decrease when the bandwidth of the filter is increased. The consequences of this result are explored when the signal or its image by a linear differential operator is analyzed in terms of zero-crossing contours of the transform in scale-space.Other authors -

Multidimensional point processes and random closed sets
Journal of Applied Probability
Refereed mathematical paper, cited 4 times.
In the first part of this paper it is shown that random point processes on ℝ are random closed sets in the sense of G. Matheron, Random sets and integral geometry. (1975; Zbl 0321.60009). In the rest of the paper the theory of random closed sets, and in particular Choquet’s theorem is used to establish some more or less well known results on Poisson- and mixed Poisson processes.
Prior work by Brian Ripley was later acknowledged. -
