Abstract

Abstract The design of material flow systems is a multifaceted problem. The designer is required to process large amounts of information and make complex decisions concerning the design objectives. A design framework for building material flow system models has been developed by the authors to take key steps towards the management of design complexity. This paper addresses the issue of selecting and sequencing software tools for building material flow system models within a design environment that contains a variable set of design tools. Strategies for performing these tasks as well as their implementation are discussed.
