Lectures

Goal

1.Acquisition of nowledge about the role and importance of computer-oriented information systems for planning and management of production systems 2. Mastery of theoretical basics of contemporary information systems architecture 3. Acquisition of practical knowledge for applications design and development in the domain of information systems for planning and management of production systems

Outcome

On successful completion of the course, students should be able to: •Identify basic concepts in the sphere of computer-oriented information systems design and development. •Identify the application and role of contemporary database management systems. •Define sub-systems (modules) within the production system, documentation and information flows within the sub-system and their interactions within the overall system. •Design database logical structure for a corresponding technological sub-system with description of required attributes for each entity and links between the entities. •Use contemporary software tools in the design and development of production information systems.

Theoretical teaching

Information systems for new concepts of production systems. Possible creation of contemporary concepts, such as CIM/CIE, TQM, Kanban system or MRP-II systems, as well as concepts of organizational structures, such as concepts of virtual enterprises, network production, e-production systems based on architectures of the system in the network environment. Processes in the client/server architecture are also the subject-matter of the course. Production system functional structure, its structuring primarily into subsystems of a production technological system: structural information management, technological information management, stock management, current business operations management, tools system management, transport management, maintenance management, all implying information modeling, database modeling, defining the object-link diagrams (EP diagram), DBMS choice, developing physical data model up to the application development level.

Practical teaching

The student acquires practical knowledge for the design and development of software applications in the domain of production systems planning and management. Using some of the available software tools for creating a database, the student passes through all stages of developing new software application for a concrete subsystem. This means the analysis of defined functions of planning and management, design and detailed elaboration of the designed solution, its practical realization, testing and official presentation in front of the teacher and other students.
