Abstract
ABSTRACT To maintain the competitiveness of shipyards in the current, difficult situation, further improvements to technology are necessary. Recently, various production technologies have been developed to advance the shipyard production environment under the influence of the Industry 4.0 toward automation, smart factories, and intelligent planning systems. To contribute to such efforts, we introduce a research case aimed at a simulation-based shipbuilding planning system. Shipbuilding planning processes are reorganized using an integrated planning and scheduling system, and a process-centric discrete event system simulation is used to enhance planning quality. Moreover, the proposed simulation-based planning system is applied to an actual shipbuilding process, proving that it could enhance the quality of production planning through several productivity evaluation indices.
