Masayuki Matsui

International Journal of Production Economics, 2009, vol. 122, issue 1, 485-491

Abstract: Recently, my book by Matsui has been published in Japanese, and the title is "Management of Manufacturing Enterprise: Profit Maximization and Factory Science." Enterprise/Factory Science means the system science of the 3M & I, in which is the complex of huMan, Material/Machine, Money and Information, and would contribute to enterprise modeling and integration issues. This paper presents the problem of enterprise/factory science, and discusses a class of 3M & I system by a stochastic management approach. First, the 3M & I system is defined, and a variety vs. structure is introduced. Next, the two structures of management are distinguished, and the demand-to-supply and process-cycle management are discussed by structural modeling.
