SOCIO-TECHNICAL SYSTEMS LAB FACILITIES

The Socio-Technical Systems Lab Facilities serves as a teaching facility to introduce students to modern computing, simulation, and visualization tools used for analysis of Logistical, Manufacturing and Service Processes (logistical, manufacturing and service processes). In addition, the lab facilities are used to teach students about different business processes and concepts (such as capacity planning, inventory management, supply chain coordination, etc.) using competitive business simulators.

The major equipment and software include:

  • 20 state-of-art student workstations
  • 5 interactive screens for visualization of group projects
  • Video wall for broadcasting different materials
  • Different System Engineering, Optimization, Simulation, and Analytics Packages installed on each workstation 

Types of research include:

  • (Big) Data Analytics and Visualization
  • Digitalization of System Processes in Healthcare, Transportation, Manufacturing
  • Development of Computer Simulation and Digital Twins for systems of different size
  • Analysis and Optimization of Healthcare, Supply Chain, and Production systems
