In times of demand shocks, when quantitative forecasting based on historical time series becomes obsolete, the only information about future demand is "advance demand information", i.e. interpreting early customer bookings as an indicator of not yet known demand. This paper deals with a forecasting method which selects the optimal forecasting model type and the level of integration of advance demand information, depending on the patterns of the particular time series. This constitutes the applicability of the procedure within an industrial application where a large number of time series is automatically forecasted in a flexible and data-driven way. The architecture of such a planning system is explained and using real-world data from a make-to-order industry it is shown that the system is flexible enough to cover different demand patterns and is well-suited to forecast demand shocks.

In this thesis, we explore the pipe mechanism available in Open Software Foundation's Distributed Computing Environment (OSF's DCE). OSF's DCE is one of the emerging technologies for distributed computing. The pipe mechanism in DCE provides an efficient way for transferring large or incrementally produced data that cannot fit in main memory at once. The empirical study of the pipe mechanism adds to the state of knowledge about how the pipe mechanism can be used in the development of client-server systems. / Department of Computer Science
