  • 70 462: Stochastic Modeling and Simulations

    9.00 Credits
    Carnegie Mellon University

    This hands-on course on computer simulation of business, service, and manufacturing systems (that are subject to uncertainty or risk) takes the perspective of the consultant whose job is to analyze stochastic decision problems by building a simulation model and using it to understand the behavior of the system and explore the effects of alternative decisions. Two modeling methodologies will be presented: 1) Models, both static and dynamic, that can be implemented as mathematical expressions in a spreadsheet; and 2) discrete-event models that utilize the event scheduling formalism. @Risk, from Palisade Corporation, is the tool that will be used to demonstrate how to build and execute spreadsheet simulation and Arena, from Rockwell Software, is the tool that will be used to demonstrate how to build discrete-event simulation models for service and manufacturing applications. Upon completion of the course students will be able to carry out the entire process of designing the model, implementing it in the appropriate software, executing the simulation, collecting and analyzing output data, and using the results of the analysis to evaluate alternative decisions.

  • 70 471: Logistics and Supply Chain Management

    9.00 Credits
    Carnegie Mellon University

    During the course we will discuss the basic issues of Supply Chain Management like inventory management, risk pooling, network planning, and supply contracts as well we some of the more concurrent issues. In the face of a globalizing economy we will discuss procurement and outsourcing strategies, global logistics and risk management. As supply chains generally cross firm boundaries we will look at supply chain integration, and alliances from a supply chain perspective. Also, as more and more information can be gathered about customers you will learn how to judge the value of this information and whether or not one should adopt a customer specific pricing model. The above issues will be covered at a general strategic level but whenever possible you will also learn how to quantitatively make trade-offs between alternatives.

  • 70 474: Quality Principles and Techniques

    9.00 Credits
    Carnegie Mellon University

    The goal in this course is twofold: (i) to develop a high-level understanding of the ideas and philosophies concerning quality in business processes; and (ii) to develop expertise with the tools used to evaluate and improve quality. The goal of the course is not to indoctrinate students into any single quality assurance framework, but rather to teach them the techniques that are common, and central, to any effective quantitative quality design and maintenance program. Applications involve both manufacturing and services; we will examine financial services in some detail. We will conclude with a discussion of the core concepts of Six Sigma.
