From: John Mo
Dear Colleages,
(Please ignore this message if you receive the same message previously due to duplicated entries or from another route.)
We are organising the "4th International Conference on Design of Information Infrastructure Systems for Manufacturing 2000" which will be held in Melbourne between 15th and 17th November, 2000. The conference is sponsored by a number of international organisations including International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), University of Texas at Arlington and National Institute of Standards and Technology.
This is the 4th conference following on three other successful conferences of the same theme. It will be a great event to meet researchers and colleagues from different parts of the world. I would like to invite you and your colleagues to submit a paper to the conference. If you would like to suggest a special session with a well defined topic, we are also happy to organise it for you.
I have attached below the CALL FOR PAPER for your consideration. Please feel free to forward to your colleagues. If you need a word version of the Call for Paper or need more information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Looking forward to meeting you in the conference,
Yours sincerely,
Dr. John Mo Project Manager CSIRO Manufacturing Science and Technology Ph: +61 3 9662 7759, Fx: +61 3 9662 7851, Em: John.Mo@cmst.csiro.au
DIISM 2000
The 4th International Conference on Design of Information Infrastructure Systems for Manufacturing 2000
CALL FOR PAPERS
November 15 - 17, 2000 Melbourne, Australia
Sponsored by: International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) IFIP WG 5.3 Computer Aided Manufacturing IFIP WG 5.7 Production Engineering IFIP WG5.12 Architectures for Enterprise Integration ARRI, University of Texas at Arlington National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
SCOPE The availability of effective global communication facilities in the last decade has changed the business goals of many manufacturing enterprises. They need to remain competitive by developing products and processes which are specific to individual requirements, completely packaged and manufactured globally to make best use of scarce global resources. Networks of enterprises are formed to operate across time and space with world-wide distributed functions of manufacturing, sales, customer support, engineering, quality assurance, project management, supply and process chain management, operations control and so on. Research and technology development is addressing architectures, methodologies, models, tools and services enabling the symbiosis of information and communication infrastructure and the business functions for intra- and inter-enterprise planning, operation and management. Throughout an integrated life cycle of products and enterprises there is the requirement to transform information sourced from globally distributed offices and partners, into knowledge, useful for decision and action.
CONFERENCE THEMES Building on the success of the first three DIISM conferences (Tokyo, 1993, Eindhoven, 1996, Fort Worth, 1998), this conference will further elaborate on the:- Establishment and management of the dynamics of inter and intra-enterprises for the support of global manufacturing and engineering;- Simultaneous development and deployment of information management in multi-cultural systems, assuring universal applicability of the proposed architecture and solutions for globally operating manufacturing companies;- Modeling and co-ordination of information system requirements and development of solutions for virtual enterprises;- Enterprise integration architectures, methodologies and information infrastructure support for reconfigurable enterprises;- Information infrastructure and intelligent manufacturing systems: how information - in globally distributed enterprise networks - is transformed into knowledge for decision and action by machine and skillful people;- Design and configuration of models for extended enterprises and product life cycles, and incorporating global inter-enterprise manufacturing requirements;- Definition of intra- and inter-enterprises information infrastructure services.
The conference program will leave much room for discussion and exchange of views. The conference is also a meeting place for new initiatives for collaborative work between research and practice.
CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES The objective of the conference is to extend the understanding and agreement about design methods, modeling languages, reference frameworks, services and architectures for information infrastructure systems for global manufacturing. Some specific goals are:- to exchange views and developments in the area of global manufacturing with functions crossing company boundaries- to compare and evaluate enterprise integration architectures, modeling methods and languages that support better understanding of the information infrastructure requirements for global manufacturing
---
to expand enterprise and product models such that these can be applied to modeling extended enterprises, enterprise networks and product life cycles- to compare and evaluate documented cases in model design, system modeling, architecture and information infrastructure development- to summarize experiences from case studies and derive a strategy for developing global infrastructure service designs or implementations- to identify targets and requirements for multi-location manufacturing, supply and process chain management, distributed engineering and business functions in a global marketing scenario
TOPICS INCLUDED Contributions are invited, but not limited to, concepts, theory and applications in the area of:- Enterprise Architectures- Supply and process chain management- Modeling for inter-enterprises- Information interoperability across policy frameworks- Frameworks for extended-enterprise process models- Product life cycle models- Virtual enterprises- Virtual manufacturing- Generic product and process models and configuration techniques- Comparison of frameworks and environments for product and process modeling- Harmonization of international standards- Multi-agent model execution services- Generic information infrastructures, services and interfaces for interflow systems- Formal ontologies, information sharing and industrial semiosis- Application of web technologies- Business-to-business E-commerce infrastructure- Partner Interface Process models- Remote customer support and system maintenance- Concurrent Engineering
