About Development of the Generalized Synergetic Index of Production Systems

Abstract

The current economic situation in Russia presupposes the search for additional reserves to ensure that domestic enterprises increase their competitiveness in the world market, which is impossible without improving the efficiency of their activities. At the same time, the efficiency, being, in fact, a qualitative characteristic of the activity of any production system, requires the development of a generalized indicator that allows it to be quantified. As such a criterion can serve as a synergetic indicator of the quality system, based on some additive or multiplicative function of the set of parameters characterizing the economic activity of the enterprise, such as the organizational and technical level of the production system, the complexity of manufacturing products, its metal content, cost and a number of others. Such an indicator will allow to estimate the quality of activity of the enterprise as a whole; and the development of mathematical, information, linguistic and methodical support of the decision-making support system implementing the automated calculation of the mentioned synergetic indicator will allow to carry out objectively and authentically an assessment (audit) of efficiency of functioning of its structural divisions, for example machining shops of the machine-building enterprises. Solving the problem of developing a synergetic indicator of the quality system and decision support system based on it, requires a wide application of methods of mathematical modeling, the theory of sets, methods of statistical and data mining, methods of fuzzy logic and fuzzy inference, technologies of hybrid expert systems. As a basis for algorithmic and linguistic support of such a system, it is proposed to use a general-purpose expert system based on production rules developed at Kalashnikov ISTU.
