MCSARCH: an architecture for the development of manufacturing control systems
Article Abstract:
An architecture for the creation of manufacturing control systems, called MCSARCH, was formulated to lessen the effort required to develop shop floor control systems. MCSARCH, which is an extension of the use of object-oriented software development techniques, integrates the use of numerous manufacturing and communication standards which are designed to address an issue related to the design and creation of systems. Its implementation requires the use of a computer aided software engineering tool.

Adoption and implementation of advanced manufacturing technology in Singapore
Article Abstract:
An empirical study of the adoption and implementation of advanced manufacturing technology in Singapore proved that the key success forces, showed in the context of developed nations, are also applicable in Singapore. The research also established that company-specific variables like the magnitude of the firm, yearly sales, etc. have substantial influences on the beginning of new technology.
