Concept Lattices
The development of manufacturing systems from fixed to flexible, reconfigurable and self-evolvable systems with reference to assembly operations is outlined.
The perspectives of polytopic models for self-manufacturing are evaluated.
Informational entropy criteria are used to evaluate manufacturing strategies and to characterize supply chain networks.
