Title: An Information System for Distributed Manufacturing Enterprises.
Abstract: A component-based Information System supporting the requirements of an optimisation-based global Order Promise system developed for use in distributed manufacturing enterprises is described. The system is full Distributed Object Oriented and is part of a broader Decision Support System for production and operations planning for the semiconductor industry. In this manufacturing sector, planning and control activities are very complex, and have to take place both within the enterprise and across the whole supply network in order to achieve high levels of performance. This leads to new more challenging requirements for information systems, that are partially fulfilled with the system described in this paper.
