Engineering Databases: Connecting Islands of Automation Through Databases by Jos

Description: Engineering Databases by Jose L. Encarnacao, K.R. Dittrich, J.L. Encarnacao, Peter C. Lockemann, W. Fischer, W. Gotthard, D. Köhler, P.C. Lockemann, T. Riedel-Heine, M. Ungerer It was less problematic to gather statistics from quality control and to print reports than to react immediately to first hints of irregularities by inter facing with the designers or manufacturing control, or, even better, by auto matically diagnosing the causes from the design and planning data. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book discusses the maturity of todays database technology in the light of the needs of engineering applications and industrial automation. Those at the forefront of database research come up with new techniques to satisfy new needs, but todays engineering community must live with database systems that reflect the older state of the art. The purpose of the book is to demonstrate that even though solutions based on todays technology are less than perfect, they do provide solutions to current pressing problems. The book mainly covers current database technology and its applications, but also mentions some promising techniques under research in order to prepare the reader for the future. The book contains four chapters that cover the significance of engineering databases, the current state of database technology, the utilization of engineering databases, and two extensive case studies. For cursory reading, the chapters may be considered to be self-contained. Intended readers are middle management and engineers from industry who deal with automation both as users and vendors, consultants to such industry, vendors of database systems, and lecturers and students.The book requires no special background in informatics. Notes This book deals with database technology as it applies to technical processes in planning, design and manufacture. It acquaints the reader with the technical perspectives of database systems and with user interfaces and standards.

Long Description Automation is nothing new to industry. It has a long tradition on the factory floor, where its constant objective has been to increase the productivity of manufacturing processes. Only with the advent of computers could the focus of automation widen to include administrative and information-handling tasks. More recently, automation has been extended to the more intellectual tasks of production planning and control, material and resource planning, engineering design, and quality control. New challenges arise in the form of flexible manu Description for Sales People This book deals with database technology as it applies to technical processes in planning, design and manufacture. It acquaints the reader with the technical perspectives of database systems and with user interfaces and standards.
