Abstract: A use resource setting device includes a control unit and a storage unit. The storage unit holds resource type information, work time information, and production plan information. A use resource setting method includes the control unit predicting calculation accuracy of required time of work in a use resource plan in which one or more resources are allocated to work in each process of producing the product, based on the resource type information, the work time information, and the production plan information, and, predicting an evaluation index for producing the product when the use resource plan is adopted, based on the use resource plan, the work time information, and the production plan information. The predicting of the evaluation index includes predicting a variation in the evaluation index based on the calculation accuracy of the required time of the work in the use resource plan by the control unit.

Abstract: This logistics network management device 1100: calculates, for each vehicle 1300, based on the expected arrival time at a delivery destination location at which the vehicle will arrive after an expected arrival at a delivery origin location and also based on information about vacant period of each shared unit 1210 at the delivery destination location, a recommended arrival time, which is the arrival time at the delivery destination location for which the period from arrival at the delivery destination location until the start of a prescribed operation is shortest; calculates a recommended departure time from the delivery origin location; and, for each vehicle 1300, when the vehicle 1300 can arrive at a shared unit 1210 that can be used at the delivery origin location at a time at or before the recommended departure time, displays information indicating that the vehicle 1300 should arrive at the stated time at the shared unit 1210 that can be used at the delivery origin location.

Abstract: Even if there is no similar record of plan generation for a manufacturing line, a logic of production scheduling is appropriately configured. An information processing apparatus stores a graph showing a manufacturing line configured to manufacture a plurality of items, task information indicating graphs showing basic modules and tasks of production scheduling, and a rule for selecting a logic of the production scheduling based on the tasks, identifies graphs showing basic modules included in the graph showing the manufacturing line by referring to the task information, extracts tasks corresponding to the identified graphs of the basic modules, selects a logic corresponding to the extracted tasks by referring to the rule, and outputs information indicating the selected logic.

Abstract: A technique of calculating a trajectory including preferable suspension posture and arcuate trajectory without interference is provided in relation to the system that calculates the trajectory in the suspension conveyance using conveying equipment.
