ICT QUIZ-Manufacturing & Modelling

What is Modelling Applications used for?

• It uses mathematical formulas and calculations to predict what is likely to happen based on data recorded about what actually did happen in the past.

• a program which has been developed to copy the way a system works in real life.

• Simulations aim to mimic real life systems in order to see outcomes of different scenarios.

What are the two main reasons for using Modelling Applications?

• to make models of characters for video games

• to test the convenience of their prototypes without spending a lot of money

• simulation of technology for performance optimization

• to test situations without endangering anybody

What are the advantages of using Computer Models?

• usually complex versions of the real situation or concept.

• Study the behavior of a system without building it.

• provide users with practical feedback when designing real world systems

• usually use simplified versions of the real situation or concept.

What are the disadvantages of using computer models?

• Models can be used to study complex and potentially dangerous systems

• not representative of every possible scenario

• they are usually simplified versions of the real situation or concept.

What is the Definition of Modelling Applications?

• the use of a physical or logical representation of a given system to generate data and help determine decisions or make predictions about the system

• an approximate imitation of the operation of a process or system

• Creating a program to model a social situation and observing the behavior of individuals in the simulation when the program runs.

• computer based program that uses algorithms and equations to predict what will happen depending on the data that has been collected

What are the main reasons Manufacturing Applications is used?

• to reduce overall running costs.

• help to improve productivity & consistency

• to make jobs easier for humans

What are the benefits of using ICT in Manufacturing?

• Improved Financial Performance.

• Increased Manufacturing Productivity

• higher endurance

What are advantages of using ICT in Manufacturing?

• higher production rates

• increased productivity

• more efficient use of materials

• better product quality

What are disadvantages of using ICT in Manufacturing?

• less jobs for humans

• an automated system can cost millions of dollars to design, and install

• generally lower degree of flexibility in terms of the possible products as compared with a manual system

What is the definition of Manufacturing Applications?

• combination of manufacturing and services industries that capture, transmit and display data and information electronically.

• the use of various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories,and other applications and vehicles with minimal or reduced human labour.

• system of operating or controlling a process by highly automatic means reducing human intervention to a minimum.
