Abstract
A system, method and apparatus for resource reallocation based on ambient condition data is disclosed herein. The system includes a planning module (102) for configuring plan data to include a primary sequence and an auxiliary sequence, a rule table (116) for storing the auxiliary sequence, an ambient condition receiver (124) for receiving the ambient condition data, and a routing processor (126) for accessing the rule table (116) to allocate an auxiliary sequence in place of a primary sequence in the event that particular ambient data is received.
Claims21
A system for resource reallocation based on ambient condition data, the system comprising:
- a planning module for configuring plan data to include a primary sequence and an auxiliary sequence;
- a rule table for storing the auxiliary sequence;
- an ambient condition receiver for receiving the ambient condition data;
- and
- a routing processor for accessing the rule table to allocate an auxiliary sequence in place of a primary sequence in the event that particular ambient data is received.
A method for resource reallocation based on ambient condition data, the method comprising:
- planning to configure plan data that includes a primary sequence and an auxiliary sequence;
- storing the auxiliary sequence in a rule table;
- receiving ambient condition data;
- and
- accessing the rule table to allocate an auxiliary sequence in place of a primary sequence in the event that particular ambient data is received.
An apparatus for processing product to produce process output, the apparatus comprising:
- a spot assignment server capable of instructing a first machine and a second machine;
- an ambient condition receiver,
- the first machine station capable of operating in a primary sequence in communication with the spot assignment server,
- the second machine station capable of operating in a primary sequence and an auxiliary sequence in communication with the spot assignment server,
- a first upstream buffer providing product to the first machine station;
- a second upstream buffer providing product to the second machine station;
- wherein product in the first upstream buffer is transferable to the second upstream buffer in the event that the ambient condition receiver receives ambient condition data and the spot assignment server instructs the second machine station to reallocate its operations from a primary sequence to an auxiliary sequence.
