The impact of the concurrent engineering on the transaction processing information system

摘要

the development of the production and control systems as well as the creation of the speech recognition and communication ones requires a close collaboration of the professionals of the large spectrum. It has been the challenge for the design and manufacturing engineers to work together as teams to provide all the links between: human knowledge and skills; logical organization; technology in order to improve quality performances while reducing costs of the manufacturing systems and processes. In this paper the integrated products and manufacturing systems and processes. In this paper the integrated products and manufacturing systems design paradigm is used to analyse and characterise the complexity of the communication relations binding its participants and embedding their performances. The model decomposition often results in new peculiarities of the system, which were not taken into account at the previous stage of the system development. Examples are given of the "system-centred" socio-technological-psychological models in which the tasks' distribution is accomplished in a concurrent way. This allows increasing the net efficiency and profitability of the integrated products and processes. Copyright direct C 2000 IFAC
