ON IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF HARD DISK DRIVE FINAL ASSEMBLY VIA KNOWLEDGE INTENSIVE SIMULATION

Traditional simulation studies focus almost exclusively on representing stochastic systems using random dynamics and/or precise dynamics. However, between these polar states lies the concept of muddy dynamics. This paper presents a case including the full spectrum of these dynamics enhanced by intensive knowledge. A case is argued that increased accuracy of simulation results is achievable with this novel approach. This is tried out on a case study in the final assembly sector in hard disk drive industry.
