  • Abstract
    This paper studies the performance difference of the Extended Kanban Control System (EKCS) versus the Traditional Kanban Control System (TKCS). Simulations were run using Arena version 12 for different initial parameter settings and a performance conclusion done for the Key Performance Indicators (KPI), such as fill rate and total average inventory.
