Feasibility study on the implementation of optimized production technology in a manufacturing company by simulationmodelling

Optimized Production Technology, which is later known as Theory of Constraint, as a profit making technique has been reviewed carefully. According to the theory, each system has at least one bottleneck or constraint that controls the whole system’s behavior. Based on this theory, this thesis aims to...
