MTConnect will be more important in the 21st century for manufacturing than CNC was for manufacturing in the 20th century. -John Byrd Former President of AMT - The Association For Manufacturing Technology I am very glad to see that MTConnect continues to thrive and has become a true game changer for manufacturing. I enjoyed working with Dave on MTConnect and believe this book, MTConnect: To Measure Is To Know, is a great way to learn not only about MTConnect, but also to understand the important principles and lessons learned from open systems that Dave shares with the reader. -Dave Patterson David A. Patterson joined the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley, in 1977. He is holder of the E.H. and M.E. Pardee Chair of Computer Science and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Sciences. Sun Microsystems forever changed the world of computing in many significant ways. Dave's book, MTConnect: To Measure Is To Know, is a great way to not only learn about this game changing technology called MTConnect, but to understand how the open system principles, that we believed so strongly in at Sun Microsystems, can be applied to manufacturing. -Scott McNealy Co-Founder, President and Chairman of the Board for Sun Microsystems

Book The Contemporary CFO

Download or read book The Contemporary CFO written by Michael Haupt and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital revolution is changing our world and the fundamentals of business faster than anyone expected, and the responsibility for leading key aspects of enterprise-wide business transformation often falls to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This book provides motivation and guidance for current and future finance leaders to navigate an increasingly unpredictable, dynamic, complex and connected world. As businesses are forced to change fundamentally or accept the reality of being left behind, the CFO has a particularly important part to play in preparing for this change - not only for their own function but for the business as a whole. So what is the role of CFOs in delivering digital business transformation? What can they do to manage business resources and performance more dynamically? How can CFOs contribute to the creation and management of new business models, such as digital business platforms and ecosystems? And what can finance leaders do to enable sustainable growth and long-term multi-stakeholder value creation? These and many more key questions are tackled in The Contemporary CFO, which draws on practical experience of transforming leading global businesses and on extensive, original research, including in-depth interviews with a wide range of corporate leaders. CFOs are used to managing change but delivering a complex business transformation on top of an already demanding role can be challenging. This essential guide includes the latest thinking, trends and perspectives to help finance leaders navigate the demands of the connected world successfully.

Book Glocalized Solutions for Sustainability in Manufacturing

Download or read book Glocalized Solutions for Sustainability in Manufacturing written by Jürgen Hesselbach and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-19 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th CIRP International Conference on Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) 2011 continues a long tradition of scientific meetings focusing on the exchange of industrial and academic knowledge and experiences in life cycle assessment, product development, sustainable manufacturing and end-of-life-management. The theme “Glocalized Solutions for Sustainability in Manufacturing” addresses the need for engineers to develop solutions which have the potential to address global challenges by providing products, services and processes taking into account local capabilities and constraints to achieve an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable society in a global perspective. Glocalized Solutions for Sustainability in Manufacturing do not only involve products or services that are changed for a local market by simple substitution or the omitting of functions. Products and services need to be addressed that ensure a high standard of living everywhere. Resources required for manufacturing and use of such products are limited and not evenly distributed in the world. Locally available resources, local capabilities as well as local constraints have to be drivers for product- and process innovations with respect to the entire life cycle. The 18th CIRP International Conference on Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) 2011 serves as a platform for the discussion of the resulting challenges and the collaborative development of new scientific ideas.
