ISyE 6644 | Fall 2020 | Projects! Timeline: • Su 9/20/20: Suggested topics and ground rules posted. • M 9/28/20: Select topic and group members (handled as an assignment in Canvas) • Th 10/22/20: Progress report due (rubric TBA). • Th 12/3/20: Project due (rubric TBA). • Th 12/10/20: Peer evaluations due (each student with be assigned 2 evaluations, rubric TBA). Some ground rules: • Pick one project that you find interesting. The projects are all intended to be a little open-ended, but do not pick a project that will kill you time-wise! • You are allowed to substitute any other interesting topic of your own choice as long as you run it by us first (scroll to the end for some details). • You are allowed to work in groups that are reasonably sized, though you will have to form the groups on your own. (Suggested group sizes are given in the text of each problem.) • The topics range from computer-intensive to more statistically oriented. When computer work is necessary, you are allowed to use whatever computer languages you’d like, e.g., R, Minitab, Matlab, Python, even Excel. • Good luck, and have fun! Some Suggested Projects for ISyE 6644: Applications-Oriented Problems 1. (2 group members) The African Tanker Problem. If you like tricky little problems, then this is the one for you! This famous exercise concerns the simulation of a somewhat complicated port, and is described in Law (2015) (Chapter 2 exercises). You should model this and conduct a little more output analysis than is asked for in the text of the problem.2 2. (2 members) Model, simulate, and analyze a reasonably large-scale real-life conveyor system. 3. (3 members) Go to your favorite non-trivial elevator system and model it. This is not as easy as you might anticipate, so do your best. In particular, collect some real data, and answer as many interesting questions as you can think of. For instance, what rules govern elevator movement? How long do people typically have to wait? Can you think of elevator movement rules that might reduce the average waiting times? Etc., etc. Justify everything you conclude by conducting careful simulations and output analysis. This could be a fun project! 4. (2 members) Go to some intersections and model a couple of traffic lights. Collect some real data. Try to answer as many interesting questions as you can think of. For instance, what would the effect of synchronization be? Or, how do cell phones affect driver behavior? Justify everything you conclude by conducting careful output analysis. This could be a great project! 5. (2 members) Model and simulate a reasonably large-scale job shop. This might be a good project if you happen to have a real-life manufacturing job. Let’s see how creative you can be. 6. (2 members) Model, simulate, and analyze a reasonably large-scale real-life warehouse. Let’s see how creative you can be. 7. (2{4 members) Run a simulation having direct applicability for your job. Some people in the class have access to interesting \real-world" problems, either through
