Manufacturing cost (assembly, test, and rework) necessarily comprises a significant portion of overall system cost in complex engineering and manufacturing environments. Test cost alone can represent 30% of overall cost. Recognizing that both business growth and competitive advantage increase with reduced cost, a question becomes how to organize systems, processes, and personnel effectively to reduce...
Korea economy has been rapidly developed through manufacturing industry since 1960s. Current business environments is very complex and its uncertainty is also growing rapidly. Many manufacturing firms in Korea are trying to deploy an innovative product, but they are facing a difficulties for product innovation because of various complexity such as environment, organization, and customer. In this context,...
Quality risk control is an important part of quality management. The quality risk control of manufacturing chain differs from an enterprise's quality risk control. Moreover, different quality organizational structures achieve different effects of risk control. The quality management structural model is established based on the process of quality formation and the process of information transmission...
Service-oriented organizations have the properties that their main resources are the knowledge and skills of service agents, and they produce intangible outputs, while those of manufacturing organizations are tangible products. So managers in the service-oriented organizations have taken "seat-of-the-pants" approaches to evaluate their new policies for preventing productivity slump. The...
The seamless integration of business and manufacturing processes is a difficult task that can be facilitated through IT consulting services. However, if the structure of these services fails to consider the problems of aligning IT and business, this might affect their effectiveness. This paper presents a methodology to systematize IT consulting services that are obtained by modelling a process system...
In this paper we introduce the first model to determine how best to make connections amongst a multi-layer network so to ensure a specified level of reliability amongst the components (actors) in the various levels of the system. This work is broadly applicable to any relationship in manufacturing, business organization or social networks in which the communication structure between independent subsystems...
This paper analyzed the organization structure of typical manufacturing at first. On this basis, it analyzed Hyper-competitive environment, business process reengineering and the characteristics of organization structure reform in the information age. According to the shortcomings of organization modeling methods to current manufacturing ERP, this paper proposed flexible modeling method and established...
A research model that examines relationships between the strategy-oriented organizational innovation (SOOI) and dynamic core competence of enterprise (DCCE) is proposed on the foundation of the analysis of measure dimensions. By using survey questionnaire and in-depth interviews in 386 manufacturing enterprises, empirical study is carried on applying structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the...
This paper analyses concept of service oriented manufacturing based on the influencing factors summarized from a literature survey. The mutual relationships between the influencing factors and the concept have also been established and analyzed. The analysis is carried out by using the interpretive structural modeling method in a qualitative and hierarchical manner.
Based on panel-data SFPF model, this paper focus on China's high-tech industry from 2000 to 2007 and divides it into five sub-industries. Based on different types of output of R&D activities, we establish influence-factor model and non influence-factor model which can measure the diversification of efficiency, and then we emphatically analyze the influence factors. At the end of the paper, we...
Static competitive environment has been replaced by an increasingly dynamic uncertain environment, organizational flexibility is getting more and more attention, flexibility has already become the most important factors to acquire the future competitive advantage. This paper build up the theoretical model of environmental uncertainty, organizational flexibility and sustainable competitive advantage...
The synergetic innovation of manufacturing enterprise is based on the competition and collaboration. The behavior process model of synergetic innovation is set up and three important parts are discussed: strategy, organization, and mechanism. Two kinds of co-existence models of synergetic innovation model are analyzed. The co-existence model of equal strength explains that the core enterprise plays...
Human resource flexible management can be adapted to the trend of agiler and more flexible manufacturing. However, there are differences for various manufacturing enterprises to implement flexible management. The paper designs an evaluation indicator system and analytical model according to four flexible aspects (i.e., functional flexibility, work flexibility, compensation flexibility, and structural...
Many scholars believe that enterprises should continue to improve their management capacity, especially in an increasingly volatile environment. Management capability in enterprises includes operational flexibility, structural flexibility and strategic flexibility, only different environments match different types of flexibilities, enterprise performance can be improved. Through the investigation...
This study develops an integrated model of commitment to learning, common vision, knowledge sharing and organizational performance. We analyze the model using a structural equation model approach, and 208 manufacturing and service firms in China are selected as the samples of this study. The results conclude that: (1) The commitment to learning is positively relative common vision; (2) Commitment...
Based on resourced-based theory, this study tries to examine how IT capabilities affect firm performance. In contrast to past studies that have assumed that IT capabilities have direct effects on firm performance, this study argues that a firmpsilas performance can be explained by how effective the firm is in using IT to support organizational decision-making. A conceptual model is developed to explain...
Based upon the generalization of two theories in organizational capability and technological innovation, this essay discusses the role of organizational capability on technological innovation, and presents its relevant hypotheses. On analyzing the effective sample data from 509 enterprises of different industries across 10 provinces and cities in China, the empirical result reflects that dynamic capability...
We present a practical, systematical method for the evaluation of the soft error rate (SER) of microelectronic devices. Existing methodologies, practices and tools are integrated in a common approach while highlighting the need for specific data or tools. The showcased method is particularly adapted for evaluating the SER of very complex microelectronic devices by engineers confronted to increasingly...
We present features of an education system entirely based on a 7-months project, performed by a 6-students team within a virtual company and tutored by an experimented software engineer. We describe some aspects of a past project: functions of the system, technology, deliverables, and assessment. Students' outcomes are drafted in term of roles.
ldquoDevelopment for advanced thermoelectric conversion systemsrdquo supported by the new energy and industrial technology development organization (NEDO) has been successfully completed as one of the Japanese national energy conservation projects. Three types of the cascaded thermoelectric modules operating up to 850 K in high electrode temperature and two types of Bi-Te thermoelectric modules operating...
