Abstract

The classical factory fades into history as production plants today develop into modern service centers. Problems in management arise for which many companies are not yet prepared: economic efficiency of modern added value is not a property of products alone but of the process. Decisive potential in business now is a question of process capability, rather than production capability. Process capability in business requires real-time systems for optimization. Business-IT needs to be developed from telecommunications and ERP to real-time services, which are not offered by the prevailing ERP systems. Today, only modern Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) offer real-time applications. They generate current as well as historic mappings of production facilities and thus they can be used as basis for optimizations. It is important to map the supply chain in real time. Increasing complexity in production requires an integrated view of the production and service facilities: detailed scheduling, status collection, quality, performance analysis, tracing of material and so on have to be recorded and displayed in an integrated way. MES (Manufacturing Execution System) where developed in the mid-nineties. MESA (Manufacturing Execution System Association) standardized applications and appointed three application layers of production, as a principle. Further standardizations on this subject are already being developed, like ISA S95. Expectations regarding MES are high, related to TQM, SIX Sigma, production scheduling or optimized material movements. This book describes the requirements for optimized Manufacturing Execution Systems. Itgives an overview of the efficiency potentials and different applications of Manufacturing Execution Systems.

Abstract

Dit boek is bedoeld als bijdrage aan het 'upgraden' van een voornamelijk administratief systeem naar een managementinformatiesysteem. Een databestand dus dat een cruciale rol speelt bij het aanpassen en ontwikkelen van schoolbeleid en bij het in kaart brengen van de effecten ervan. Verder is er aandacht voor het kiezen en in gebruik nemen van schoolinformatiesystemen. De auteur legt veel nadruk op de mogelijke rol van deze systemen bij schoolontwikkeling. Een geïntegreerde, organisatiebrede benadering biedt daarbij de bese kansen. In het boek is te lezen wat de mogelijkheden zijn en wat er voor komt kijken. (Bron: covertekst)

Abstract

Advances in Information Systems Development: Bridging the Gap between Academia and Industry, Volumes 1 and 2, are the collected proceedings of the Fourteenth International Conference on Information Systems Development: Methods and Tools, Theory and Practice - ISD'2005 Conference. These latest volumes on Information Systems Development examine the exchange of ideas between academia and industry and aims to explore new solutions. The field of Information Systems Development (ISD) progresses rapidly, continually creating new challenges for the professionals involved. New concepts, approaches and techniques of systems development emerge constantly in this field. The seven conference tracks highlighted at the Fourteenth International Conference on Information Systems Development - ISD'2005 Conference: - Co-design of Business and IT - Communication and Methods - Human Values of Information Technology - Service Development and IT - Requirements Engineering in the IS Life-Cycle - Semantic Web Approaches and Applications - Management and IT

Abstract

Reading has arguably the longest and richest history of any domain for scientifically considering the impact of technology on the user. From the 1920s to the 1950s, Miles Tinker [1963] and other researchers ran hundreds of user tests that examined the effects of different fonts and text layout variables, such as the amount of vertical space between each line of text (called leading). Their research focused on user performance, and reading speed was the favoured measure. They charted the effect of the manipulated variables on reading speed, looking for the point at which their participants could read the fastest. Their assumption was that faster reading speeds created a more optimal experience. Printers and publishers eagerly consumed this research. In recent years, some of these variables have been reexamined as the technology and capabilities evolve with the advent of computers and computer screens. Dillon [1992] examined how to design textual information for an electronic environment. Boyarski et al. [1998] examined the effect of fonts that were designed for computer screens. Dyson & Kipping [1998] examined the effect of line length on computer screens. Larson et al. [2000] examined the effect of 3-D rotation on reading. Gugerty et al. [2004] demonstrated a reading performance advantage with the Microsoft ClearType display technology.
