	First Place: Performance Evaluation of Advanced Measuring Instruments Group Members: Manjunath S. Thirtha and Rama Chandra S. Kotagal Advisor: Dr. H. Cheraghi Department and Class: Industrial Engineering
This project undertook the evaluation of CMM for both hardware and software parts. Tolerances were measured using the CMM and these results were compared with the corresponding values from various tolerance optimization software. The conclusion was "CMM is an excellent date collection device but does not produce the optimum measurement results."
Second Place: Scheduling with High Volume Batch Processing (HVBP) Constraint Group Members: Erwin Unaja and Kai C. Hallacy Advisors: Dr. D. Malzahn and Dr. Krishnan Department and Class: Industrial Engineering
The problem faced by job shop industries with a HVBP facility in their production scheduling can be solved by adopting the Theory of Constraint (TOC). Drum-Buffer-Rope is one of the scheduling methods that are beneficial for HVBP scheduling, compare it to Earliest Due Date.
Third Place: Process Integration in A Flow Line At Phillips Lighting Company, Salina, KS Group Members: Jennifer Sutherland, Iman Handoko, Chee-Quang Ma Advisor: Dr. D. Malzahn Department and Class: Industrial Engineering
Currently, the base filling machines and the main production lines are located too far from each other. This requires the company to have additional manpower in both locations. Therefore, we were to attach a base-filling machine to the main fluorescent lamp production line.
