Abstract :
Introduces ALSS II, the Advanced Assembly Line System Simulator, a special-purpose simulator used to model and analyze assembly line systems. The ALSS II model constructs are introduced. An assembly line system example is modeled and selected results are presented. ALSS II has proven to be an effective tool for rapidly analyzing complex assembly line systems. Because it is SIMAN IV based, if a particular system cannot be adequately modeled using ALSS II, a more detailed model can be developed in SIMAN IV
