4.3 Develop a simulation model for better performance The next part of this proposes improvement of the bonding workstation using simulation methods. Simulation is a kind of analysis method‚ which involves systems‚ models and applications‚ to mimic the behavior of reals systems‚ using appropriate software on a computer. Simulation models can be used to analyze and measure the effect of changes on the manufacturing processes. Other advantages of simulation are that it can be done with less analytic

Ethics Game Simulation The ethics simulation game is a learning tool designed to teach individuals how to make decision between ethical challenges. While one might think making such decisions is an easy task‚ more dilemmas are present than imaginable. The first decision that had to be made was about a product already on the market that was contaminated yet only put a small percentage of users at a low risk. After narrowing the possibilities down to two solutions‚ the choice was made to warn
