Workload Scheduling Solutions
Workflow management systems are also essential to the success of business processes. KBSI has successfully implemented many initiatives, specifically, its Agile, Wireless Enabled Workflows for Ship Manufacture and Repair (AWSM) effort for the Office of Naval Research where tools were developed enabling shipyards to take advantage of pervasive computing and the ubiquitous pull and push of information to optimally deliver information to every user, work crew, or process. The focus of the effort was to completely redesign processes using a new paradigm in which the workload is constantly adjusted to achieve peak performance and to optimally utilize the flexibility and connectivity of PDA, Tablet PC, and wireless technology. KBSI also developed its COTS tool WorkSim® software, which is a knowledge based scheduling system that captures all relevant workload data including task precedence constraints, task priorities, task durations, resource availability schedules, etc. and, using this data, generates an optimal schedule of selected workloads.
