The Research on Developing an Architecture and a System Analysis Approach for Global Manufacturing Information System

隨著全球化生產型態的轉變以及區域製造中心的形成，傳統位於單一地點的製造環境早已不符合企業實際的需求，取而代之的是一個全球化的製造環境。而由於全球化的環境容易造成溝通與協調上的不便，因此如何利用資訊科技發展出一個完善的資訊系統來支援製造功能，乃是一件刻不容緩的事情。本研究首先探討全球化製造環境的特性，並依據此特性提出一個符合此環境需求之製造資訊系統的架構，再就此架構建立出一簡單的概念模型。最後，並提出一個以物件導向方法為基礎的系統分析方法，來協助企業管理人員發展出符合其企業特質之製造資訊系統。Due to the change of production type and the development ofregional manufacturing centers, the traditional and stand-alone manufacturing environment is no longer suitable to theoperations of modern manufacturing enterprise. Instead of it, a global manufacturing environment is to be paid much attention to recently. Since the global environment is easy to make the communication and coordination be inconvenient, how to apply information technology to develop a well-defined information system for supporting manufacturing functions of the enterprise is an important task to be accomplished.In this research, firstly, we try to clarify the properties of a global manufacturing environment, then propose an architecture for the manufacturing information system based on these properties.Secondly, we intend to establish a model of the globalmanufacturing information system based on the architecture that we proposed. Finally, we will develop an object-oriented analysis approach to help the system analysts to build a manufacturing information system for their own-purpose and own-characteristics
