Simulation of Semiconductor Devices and Processes: Vol.5

The "Fifth International Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Devices and Processes" (SISDEP 93) continues a series of conferences which was initiated in 1984 by K. Board and D. R. J. Owen at the University College of Wales, Swansea, where it took place a second time in 1986. Its organization was succeeded by G. Baccarani and M. Rudan at the University of Bologna in 1988, and W. Fichtner and D. Aemmer at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1991. This year the conference is held at the Technical University of Vienna, Austria, September 7 - 9, 1993. This conference shall provide an international forum for the presentation of out­ standing research and development results in the area of numerical process and de­ vice simulation. The miniaturization of today's semiconductor devices, the usage of new materials and advanced process steps in the development of new semiconduc­ tor technologies suggests the design of new computer programs. This trend towards more complex structures and increasingly sophisticated processes demands advanced simulators, such as fully three-dimensional tools for almost arbitrarily complicated geometries. With the increasing need for better models and improved understand­ ing of physical effects, the Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Devices and Processes brings together the simulation community and the process- and device en­ gineers who need reliable numerical simulation tools for characterization, prediction, and development.

Simulation of Thermal Systems: A Modular Program with an Interactive Preprocessor (EMGP 3)

The events leading up to the publication of this book started effectively in 1976 with the exchange of information between those modelling teams in Europe which were involved in the R&D-programme on Solar Energy of the Commission. When it became clear that the availability of experimental datafor model validation wm next to nothing, the Commission took the initiative to support in the frame of the Solar Energy R&D-programme the construction of Solar Pilot Test Facilities on eight sites in Europe. Each experimental facility consisted of two real solar heating systems with collectors, storage, controls, and msociated piping, but with the dwelling thermal distribution system replaced by a physical load simulator. One of the two systems on each site wm a reference system and wm identical for the eight participating teams. The simulator wm capable of producing a typical themalload for a house, interactive with the actual weather, and took into account the effects of the occupants. With datafrom these facilities not only were national simulation programs validated, but also the meanwhile commonly accepted modular structured European program EMGPl wm validated. EMGPl, which only could be run on a mainframe computer or under special conditions on a mini-computer,formed in tum the bmis for the development of EURSOL andEMGP3.EMGP3 is an improved userjriendly programpackagejorpersonal computers derived jrom EMGPl and includes a unique and user jriendly preprocessor.

Simulation Training: Improving Professional Practice Through Simulation Training

Drawing on decades of industrial experience, this insightful and practical guide uses case studies and an interdisciplinary perspective to explain the fundamentals of simulation training to improve performance of high-risk professional activities. It seeks to identify those conditions under which simulation training has been shown to improve professional practice while employing extensive real examples. Simulation Training: Fundamentals and Application helps readers to develop their own synthesis of the simulation learning method and to use such training to enhance their skills and performance. Case studies demonstrate five specific theatres of professional practice - the nuclear-power industry, aeronautics, surgery, anesthesia and metallurgy – and then detailed analysis highlights the common factors and key results. The author’s background as a Human Factors Consultant, Physicist and Physiologist has enriched studies of humans in work situations, work organization and management and he has also been involved in pedagogical conception of experimental training on simulators based on his experience as a safety expert on nuclear power plant. The book is useful to practitioners, researchers and students, both in industry and in university. It is clearly cross disciplinary as it presents and discusses applications in engineering, professional practice (airline pilots) and medicine.

Simulation und Optimierung in Produktion und Logistik: Praxisorientierter Leitfaden mit Fallbeispielen (VDI-Buch)

Die simulationsgestützte Optimierung von Produktportfolios und Produktionsketten birgt großes Potenzial – Berichte über Kopplungen von Simulation und Optimierung sind aber rar. Der Band liefert erstmals deutschsprachige Anwendungsbeispiele und einen Überblick über die Möglichkeiten von Simulation und Optimierung. Anders als standardisierte Planungsansätze können mithilfe der Simulation auch dynamische Produktions- und Logistikprozesse analysiert werden. Bei gezielter Vernetzung von Logistikabläufen lassen sich so unerwünschte Liegezeiten vermeiden.

Simulation von Meßschaltungen: Praktische Beispiele mit PSPICE berechnen (Springer-Lehrbuch)

Dies ist ein Lehr- und Übungsbuch für die Simulation von elektrischen Schaltungen mit PSPICE, wie sie in der Vorlesung Meßtechnik für Studenten der Elektrotechnik an Hochschulen und Fachhochschulen behandelt werden. Die Grundvorlesungen über elektrische Meßtechnik müssen heutzutage verstärkt auf die Schaltungssimulation eingehen. Das Buch bearbeitet die für die Prüfung und Praxis wichtigsten und aktuellsten Schaltungsbeispiele in anschaulicher Darstellung, wobei auch jeweils die Codierungen in PSPICE mit angegeben werden. Dabei wird auf die Demonstration der typischen und wesentlichen Eigenschaften der Meßschaltungen besonderer Wert gelegt. Es ist sinnvoll und hilfreich, die Beispiele auf dem Rechner mit PSPICE nachzuvollziehen. Aber auch ohne diese Möglichkeit kann das Wesentliche über Meßschaltungen aus diesem Buch gelernt werden.

Simulation von Produktionssystemen

Seit einigen Jahren entwickelt sich Computersimulation zu einem unentbehrlichen Werkzeug in der Planung von Produktionssystemen, Unternehmenslogistik und Produktionsplanung und -steuerung. Systeme, die mit dieser Technik analysiert und gesteuert werden, wurden in den letzten Jahren stark verändert. Automatisierte, komplexe Produktionssysteme, dezentrale Organisationsstrukturen, schlanke Produktion und der "kontinuierliche Verbesserungsprozeß"in der Produktion - das alles stellt auch neue Anforderungen an die Simulationstechnik und ihre Benutzer. Das Buch führt in die Simulationstechnik und ihre theoretischen Grundlagen ein und gibt einen Überblick über Methodik und Anwendungen. Es dient Studenten als Lehrbuch und hilft Ingenieuren und Planern in Betrieben, die sich in die Thematik einarbeiten wollen.
