Download or read book Networking in Japanese Factory Automation written by Koichi Kishimoto and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Japan information technology has been a vital part of manufacturing for decades. A central factory computer provides a production plan and shop minicomputers and microcomputers in the factory run machines that manufacture products. It has become necessary to connect computers installed at different locations to enable information exchange between different sections. This requires an intracompany network with large memory capacity and high-speed communication capability to process documents, drawings, and image data, as well as conventional code data: a local area network (LAN). This volume discusses the ring-type LAN; the TOSLINE-8000 high-speed optical data highway for high-speed real-time control systems; the TOSLINE-2000E, a compact, low-cost independent local area network; the status of MAP, a communications protocol for manufacturing automation established by General Motors and MAP activities in Japan

Download or read book Interfirm Networks in the Japanese Electronics Industry written by Ralph Paprzycki and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interfirm Networks in the Japanese Electronics Industry analyses changes in production networks in the Japanese electronics industry. Japan's post-war success in the assembly industries is frequently attributed to innovative approaches to the organization of production: Japanese assemblers have tended to forge intricate networks of long-term interfirm business relationships. Traditionally, these networks have been characterized by hierarchical interfirm relationships resembling a pyramid. Paprzycki argues that as a result of global industry dynamics, such monolithic 'pyramidal' production networks have come under mounting pressure and are giving way to an increasing diversity of network arrangements. A major contributing factor is the growing cost and complexity of technology, which forces even the largest manufacturers to look beyond traditional network boundaries in order to gain access to complementary (technological) assets and capabilities.
Download or read book VLSI Neural Network Systems written by Yuzo Hirai and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extremely expensive little book is probably worth the exorbitant price. Not only does the author introduce state-of-the-art research on both VSLI and neural networks, he also describes a model for basic chip design. Surprisingly well written, the material is appropriate for anyone with an interest in neural networks and background in basic mathematics and electronic engineering.
