The objective of this book is to bring together contributions by
eminent researchers from industry and academia who specialize in
the currently separate study and application of the key aspects of
integration. The state of knowledge on integration and
collaboration models and methods is reviewed, followed by an agenda
for needed research that has been generated by the participants.
The book is the result of a NATO Advanced Research Workshop on
"Integration: Information and Collaboration Models" that took place
at II Ciocco, Italy, during June 1993. Significant developments and
research projects have been occurring internationally in a major
effort to integrate increasingly complex systems. On one hand,
advancements in computer technology and computing theories provide
better, more timely, information. On of users and clients, and the
the other hand, the geographic and organizational distribution
proliferation of computers and communication, lead to an explosion
of information and to the demand for integration. Two important
examples of interest are computer integrated manufacturing and
enterprises (CIM/E) and concurrent engineering (CE). CIM/E is the
collection of computer technologies such as CNC, CAD, CAM. robotics
and computer integrated engineering that integrate all the
enterprise activities for competitiveness and timely response to
changes. Concurrent engineering is the complete life-cycle approach
to engineering of products. systems. and processes including
customer requirements, design. planning. costing. service and
recycling. In CIM/E and in CE, computer based information is the
key to integration.
