  2. Lean manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_manufacturing

    DCS. SCADA. v. t. e. Lean manufacturing is a method of manufacturing goods aimed primarily at reducing times within the production system as well as response times from suppliers and customers. It is closely related to another concept called just-in-time manufacturing (JIT manufacturing in short).

  3. Kanban - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban

    Kanban (Japanese: 看板 [kambaɴ] meaning signboard) is a scheduling system for lean manufacturing (also called just-in-time manufacturing, abbreviated JIT). [2] Taiichi Ohno, an industrial engineer at Toyota, developed kanban to improve manufacturing efficiency. [3] The system takes its name from the cards that track production within a factory.

  4. Toyota Production System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Production_System

    Toyota Production System. The Toyota Production System (TPS) is an integrated socio-technical system, developed by Toyota, that comprises its management philosophy and practices. The TPS is a management system [1] that organizes manufacturing and logistics for the automobile manufacturer, including interaction with suppliers and customers.

    An enhancement of "just-in-time" is the so-called "just in sequence" (JIS). Based on the JIT principle, the products are also delivered to the customer in the correct sequence. JIT is now standard throughout the automotive industry. It is used, for example, for interior parts (seats, airbags, steering wheels, dashboards) or painted parts.

  6. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    MSVC. v. t. e. In computing, just-in-time (JIT) compilation (also dynamic translation or run-time compilations) [1] is compilation (of computer code) during execution of a program (at run time) rather than before execution. [2] This may consist of source code translation but is more commonly bytecode translation to machine code, which is then ...

  7. Just-in-time learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_learning

    Just-in-time learning is different from structured training or scheduled professional development, both of which are generally available at set dates and times. [1] What makes just-in-time learning unique is a strategy focused on meeting the learner's need when it arises, rather than pre-scheduled education sessions that occur regardless of the immediacy or scope of need. [2]

  8. Just in case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_in_case

    Just in case. Just-in-case manufacturing (JIC) is a term sometimes applied to traditional manufacturing systems used before the influence of modern technologies and newer transportation infrastructures. It is the contrary in many ways to the recently evolved Just In Time manufacturing system.

  9. Just in sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_in_sequence

    Just in sequence. Just in sequence (JIS) is an inventory strategy that matches just in time (JIT) and complete fit in sequence with variation of assembly line production. Components and parts arrive at a production line right in time as scheduled before they get assembled. Feedback from the manufacturing line is used to coordinate transport to ...
