CIM Architecture from ASRI,
SNU.
The systems that we are focusing
at are Global level production planning & management
systems(MPS,MRP,MRPII,JIT,OPT,etc.), BOM, capacity planning and control,
inventory control, costing, finance management, etc. Some key CAD subsystems
are computer graphics, graphic standards, IGES, design analysis tools, etc. Som
key CAM subsystems are production and process planning, NC/CNC part
programming, robot programming, CMM, vision and other machine programming
tasks, Adaptive control, etc. System design and analysis methods are included
simulation, modeling tool(IDEF series),computer network, Database management,
expert system, etc.
The arrows mean the integration of subsystems. And another meaning is the
process of system. CAD,CAM and FMS arrows means the process from the design or
engineering changes of product to market. BIS,CAM and FMS arrow means the
process from production strategy or sales order to delivery.
But CIMS cannot be constructed by only one system. And cannot by only
subsystems in the below figure. Because CIMS needs fully Integration of
subsystems and people involved. The focus of our lab. is integration of
subsystems for people
