- Production ramp-up is a critical phase in manufacturing, which is both time-consuming and knowledge-intensive. This interdisciplinary research was carried out within the EU FP7 FRAME project (grant 229208) and is significant because it introduces a software framework for learning how to adapt assembly systems in order to reduce production ramp-up time. The ideas on self-adaptation led to other projects with Ratchev as PI: EU FP7 PRIME (grant 314762, €5.4m) and EPSRC Evolvable Assembly System (EP/K018205/1, £2.2m). This paper has been cited in DOI:10.1007/s10845-015-1044-6 by Hoda ElMaraghy (University of Windsor, Canada), a leader in the field of manufacturing systems.
