On this page we begin instruction the collection materials related to Models and Analysis of Production Systems. Although we expect to add related pages in the future, at this time we include only a set of PowerPoint presentations describing models of production systems and the formulas related to process flow analysis. The material helps describe the models and computations in the Process Flow Analysis add-in. Click a title to download an individual presentation. Click the Archive link to download the entire collection.

The following presentations are based on the book:

The Goal by Eliyahu M. Goldratt and Jeff Cox, North River Press, Inc., Second Revised Edition (1992).

I have used the book in classes on Engineering Economics and Models and Analysis of Production Systems. The presentations assume that the class has read the book. Students are to provide answers to questions in several places.
