CIM (computer integrated manufacturing) is an acronym that has
become fairly well known in recent years in manufacturing and
related engineering circles. The purpose of the CIM Project at
IIASA is to close the widening gap between the pace of
technological, economic, and social events, on the one hand, and
the progress of understanding those events, on the other. The IIASA
study has attempted, first, to define the existing world situation
with regard to the underlying technologies of CIM, and the degrees
to which technologies such as NC/CNC machine tools, robotics, and
CAD/CAM are currently being used in metal products manufacturing.
The methodology adopted in the study is eclectic. It is
multiperspective and multidisciplinary, as well as multinational.
It incorporates elements of both "bottom-up" and "top-down"
approaches. Finally, it incorporates both historical analysis and
"model" forecasts of the future, together with scenarios analyses.
This third volume in the series presents a descriptive and
interpretive analysis of the processes of diffusion and adoption of
CIM by technology, sector and country.
