Publication Open Access Sustainable manufacturing: application of optimization to textile manufacturing plants(Global Journals, 2020-10-21) Liyanage, I; Nuwanga, S; Anjana, R; Rankothge, W; Gamage, NThe main goal of manufacturing industry is to produce the end products on time with good quality and keep the resource wastage low. However, manufacturing industry face several challenges such as bottle necks in the workflow, unsynchronized production, and sudden increase in product demands.In this paper, we are proposing a management platform for textile manufacturing plants with following modules: (1) sewing workflow optimization (2) quality assurance workflow optimization and (3) finishing workflow optimizations. We have used Genetic Programming (GP) approach, to optimize the workflows, considering different factors that affect each workflow. Our results show that, using our proposed platform, the manufacturing workflows can be optimized and reduce the bottle necks in the workflows and resource wastage in the manufacturing plant.Publication Embargo IGOE IoT framework for waste collection optimization(IEEE, 2017-01-27) Lokuliyana, S; Jayakody, A; Rupasinghe, L; Kandawala, SWaste management has become a major issue in all the part of the world and tends to grow day by day. Mismanagement in waste has become one of the key environmental and health issue. With the increase of population, especially in the urban areas waste collection, categorization, and disposal has become a major hazard for the government authorities. An IoT based waste collection framework is proposed to automate the solid waste identification, localization and collection process. The authors are involved in the identifying key impact factors in the waste collection process and provide systematic and automated solution to optimize the process to achieve higher efficiency. A layered architecture is introduced to handle the waste collection process and an optimization algorithm is derived for the existing business process based on the proposed evaluation criteria. The final outcome is a complete framework which compromises the Inputs, Outputs, Guide and Enables. The main objective is to implement an optimized automated waste collection system with the use of a vast sensor network capable of gathering waste data and by implementing an optimization algorithm in waste collection.Publication Embargo IGOE IoT framework for waste collection optimization(IEEE, 2017-01-27) Lokuliyana, S; Jayakody, J.
