This paper is directed toward the development of models, methods and tools suitable for effective, profitable, and autonomous cellular manufacturing as a new vision for 21st Century. The cellular manufacturing is mainly concerned with the efficient integration of three major concerns : (1) planning-oriented predictive cellular layout design; (2) an unexpected order-adapted cellular manufacturing through the integration between manufacturing decision processes and cellular layout, and (3) a contingency-driving shop floor adaptation for supporting continuous improvement. The system supports the user with five modules : real-time status monitoring, data acquisition and analysis, diagnosis through intelligent decision support system, simulation optimization, and results evaluation and performance measurement.
