Profit-driven Maintenance in Process Industries

2020 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM), 2020
Process industries still mainly approach maintenance in terms of cost, in which the goal is to achieve lowest possible costs. Since the 1970s, literature advocates for a profit-driven approach for maintenance. A profit-driven maintenance approach enables companies to improve operations as it covers the impact from maintenance on the revenue and ...

A Study of Web Maintenance in an Industrial Setting

2013 17th European Conference on Software Maintenance and Reengineering, 2013
In this paper, we explore facets of web maintenance effort for three commercial Web Information Systems. We decompose effort from over four hundred change requests collected post-implementation over a three month period into the three categories of adaptive, corrective and perfective maintenance change types. We explore two research questions. Firstly,

Framework for Teleoperation and Maintenance of an Industrial Robot

Solid State Phenomena, 2006
In this paper, we present a framework for teleoperation and the maintenance of industrial robots. The idea of the framework is to provide a rapid change of products to be manufactured and safely monitor and carry out the maintenance remotely. Also, the goal of the work is to provide an easy-to-use HMI for user of the robot.
