Patent number: 8164777Abstract: A system and method for modeling print jobs provides a central server that is accessible to remotely located print shops. The remote print shops are able to communicate with the central server to forward print job parameters and to receive the output from a modeling program to enable the print shop to run “what-if” scenarios to maximize print shop efficiency. The central server is also provided with various other print shop tools to assist with print shop design and organization.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2009Date of Patent: April 24, 2012Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Sudhendu Rai, Yuri Gartstein

Patent number: 7379206Abstract: A plurality of printing jobs associated with a printing environment can be initially evaluated. Such a printing environment can be implemented as a print shop or another lean document production environment. A set of minimal resource capacities can then be calculated as a multi-objective optimization using a linear programming (LP) analysis. Alternatively, in a generalized geometrical algorithm, at least one peak-demand production rate associated with the most critical resource can first be estimated, in response to evaluating the plurality of printing jobs. Thereafter, minimal resource capacities of the plurality of resources of the printing environment can be hierarchically calculated based on estimating the previously determined peak-demand production rate of higher priority.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2004Date of Patent: May 27, 2008Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Yuri Gartstein, Daniel E. Viassolo
