A mathematical model of workflow, based on queueing network theory, is used to compare the performance of four alternative layout configurations for manufacturing systems: a product layout (or flowshop), a process layout (or job shop), and two layouts which have been used in computerized manufacturing system. It is shown that, under appropriate conditions, any one of the four layouts could be the preferred choice. The impact of part mix, process selection, and the ratio of mean process time to mean transport time on the layout design are revealed and quantified.

This study provides an overview of Computer-Integrated Manufacturing in a conceptual and managerial context, and analyzes the organizational structure and managerial approaches required for successful CIM. CIM is considered as the (vertical) integration of computerized manufacturing systems at the shop floor with Management Information Systems, and as the (horizontal) integration of functional areas from design, manufacturing to business functions. This implies an integrated, company-wide, MIS approach toward CIM rather than a traditional and functional attitude. In this context, the organizational structure that fits CIM technology will be analyzed.
