Layout planning is deciding on the best physical arrangement of all resources that consume space within a facility.
Decisions about the arrangement of resources in a business are not made only when a new facility is being designed; they are made any time there is a change in the arrangement of resources, such as a new worker being added, a machine being moved, or a change in procedure being implemented.
Layout planning is performed any time there is an expansion in the facility or a space reduction.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

7. Principles of Layout
Principle of Minimum Travel
Principle of Sequence
Principle of Usage
Principle of Compactness
Principle of Safety & Satisfaction
Principle of Flexibility
Principle of Minimum Investment
8. Types of Layout
Process Layout, Functional Layout or Job shop
Layout.
Product Layout, Line processing layout or Flow
Line Layout.
Fixed Position Layout or Static Layout.
Cellular manufacturing Layout or Group
Technology Layouts.
Combination Layout or Hybrid Layout
9. Process Layout
Group similar resources together.
For job lot manufacturer or batch production.
Involves grouping together of like machines in
one department.
E.g. machines performing drilling operations
installed in the drilling department.
10.
11. Principles
a) The distance between departments should be
as short as possible for avoiding long distance
movement of materials
b) The departments should be in sequence of
operations
c) The arrangement should be convenient for
inspection and supervision
12. Advantages:
a) Lower initial capital investment in machines and equipments. There
is high
degree of machine utilization, as a machine is not blocked for a single
product
b) The overhead costs are relatively low
c) Change in output design and volume can be more easily adapted to
the output of variety of products
d) Supervision can be more effective and specialized
e) There is a greater flexibility of scope for expansion.
13. Disadvantages:
a. Material handling costs are high due to backtracking
b. More skilled labour is required resulting in higher cost.
c. Time gap or lag in production is higher
d. Work in progress inventory is high needing greater
storage space
e. More frequent inspection is needed which results in
costly supervision
14. Product Layout
Involves the arrangement of machines in
one line, depending upon the sequence of
operations.
Materials are fed into the first machines
and finished products come out of the last
machine.
15.
16. Principles
a) All the machine tools or other items of equipments must
be placed at the point demanded by the sequence of
operations
b) There should no points where one line crossed another
line.
c) Materials may be fed where they are required for
assembly but not necessarily at one point.
d) All the operations including assembly, testing packing
must be included in the line.
17. Advantages:
a) Low cost of material handling, due to straight and short route and
absence of backtracking
b) Smooth and uninterrupted operations
c) Continuous flow of work
d) Lesser investment in inventory and work in progress
e) Optimum use of floor space
f) Shorter processing time or quicker output
g) Less congestion of work in the process
h) Simple and effective inspection of work and simplified production
control
i) Lower cost of manufacturing per unit
18. Disadvantages:
a. High initial capital investment in special purpose
machine
b. Heavy overhead charges
c. Breakdown of one machine will hamper the
whole production process
d. Lesser flexibility as specially laid out for
particular product.
