"Die zeitliche Arbeitssynthese fasst Arbeitsgänge zu Arbeitsfolgen zusammen und legt Arbeitstakte für jede Gangfolge fest.
Außerdem stimmt sie die Gangfolgen aufeinander ab.
Zielsetzung ist es, die Durchlaufzeiten, das heißt die Bearbeitungs-, Liege-, Rüst- und Transportzeiten je Werkstück zu optimieren."
Can anybody help? It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Definition. The central idea in work system theory (WST) is that “work system” is a natural unit of analysis for thinking about systems in organizations. In organizational settings, work is the application of human, informational, physical, and other resources to produce products/services.
A work system is a system in which human participants and/or machines perform work (processes and activities) using information, technology, and other resources to produce specific products/services for specific internal and/or external customers. Typical business organizations contain work systems that procure materials from suppliers, produce products, deliver products to customers, find customers, create financial reports, hire employees, coordinate work across departments, and perform many other functions. It is possible to think of an organization as a set of work systems.
Processes and activities include everything that happens within the work system. The term processes and activities is used instead of the term business process because many work systems do not contain highly structured business processes involving a prescribed sequence of steps, each of which is triggered in a pre-defined manner. Rather, the sequence and details of work in some work systems depend on the skills, experience, and judgment of the work system participants. In effect, “business process” is but one of a number of different perspectives for analyzing the activities within a work system. Other perspectives with their own valuable concepts and terminology include decision-making, communication, coordination, control, and information processing.

Workflow, loosely defined, is the set of tasks—grouped chronologically into processes—and the set of people or resources needed for those tasks, that are necessary to accomplish a given goal. An organization’s workflow is comprised of the set of processes it needs to accomplish, the set of people or other resources available to perform those processes, and the interactions among them.
