DRAM cells in close proximity can fail depending on the data content in neighboring cells. These failures are called data-dependent failures. Detecting and mitigating these failures online while the system is running in the field enables optimizations that improve reliability, latency, and energy efficiency of the system. All these optimizations depend on accurately detecting every possible data-dependent...
Nowadays, consumers expect manufacturers to provide excellent quality, reliable delivery and competitive pricing. This demands that the manufacturer's machines and processes are highly reliable. In order to possess highly reliable machines to make sure smooth manufacturing process, many organizations have implemented Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) as the enabling tool to maximize the effectiveness...
In this paper we introduce the first model to determine how best to make connections amongst a multi-layer network so to ensure a specified level of reliability amongst the components (actors) in the various levels of the system. This work is broadly applicable to any relationship in manufacturing, business organization or social networks in which the communication structure between independent subsystems...
This paper examines factors that influence knowledge sharing and the role of knowledge sharing in Total Quality Management (TQM). Knowledge is recognized as a key element in production processes that enhances the capacity of companies to be more responsive to customers' requirements. Prior works on knowledge sharing have focused on the service industry. This paper is one of the rare attempts to highlight...
As part of a continuing effort to make their organizations more efficient and flexible, manufacturers are rapidly migrating to Industrial Ethernet technology to network their industrial automation and control systems. The use of standard Ethernet technology enables organizations to control costs by moving from costly plant-optimized networks to a proven technology that is simpler to integrate, requires...
The aim of this paper is to study the state of overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) through total productive maintenance (TPM) practices across the Malaysian industries. A theoretical framework is developed to determine the predominant TPM pillars that influence the OEE. Based on this theoretical framework, a survey-based research on a sample size of 70 Malaysian industries is applied to this study...
This paper proposes a conceptual model of social capital, external organizational integration and new product development (NPD) performance, and conducts empirical study based on the investigation of domestic manufacturing enterprises. The results show that social capital has positive impact on external organizational integration, external organizational integration has positive impact on NPD performance,...
This paper proposes a conceptual model of inter-organizational relationship, information sharing and new product development (NPD) performance, and conducts empirical study based on the survey of domestic manufacturing enterprises. The results show that trust, commitment and interdependence have positive impacts on information sharing, commitment and information sharing have positive impacts on NPD...
With the survey data from the 112 firms examined in China, the relationship between performance measurement system (PMS) and staff perceptions of learning is validated by empirical study. The result shows that those firms with higher maturity performance management systems report better outcomes of staff perceptions of learning. Concretely, PMS formalization has a significant positive impact on staff...
By building the framework of the organizational culture, organizational learning capability and technological innovation capability and sustainable competitive advantage, this paper makes an empirical research based on the 204 large and medium-sized manufacturing in the Pearl River Delta. The results show that the openness of the organizational culture and the organizational learning capability has...
Many scholars believe that enterprises should continue to improve their management capacity, especially in an increasingly volatile environment. Management capability in enterprises includes operational flexibility, structural flexibility and strategic flexibility, only different environments match different types of flexibilities, enterprise performance can be improved. Through the investigation...
This study develops an integrated model of commitment to learning, common vision, knowledge sharing and organizational performance. We analyze the model using a structural equation model approach, and 208 manufacturing and service firms in China are selected as the samples of this study. The results conclude that: (1) The commitment to learning is positively relative common vision; (2) Commitment...
We present a practical, systematical method for the evaluation of the soft error rate (SER) of microelectronic devices. Existing methodologies, practices and tools are integrated in a common approach while highlighting the need for specific data or tools. The showcased method is particularly adapted for evaluating the SER of very complex microelectronic devices by engineers confronted to increasingly...
ldquoDevelopment for advanced thermoelectric conversion systemsrdquo supported by the new energy and industrial technology development organization (NEDO) has been successfully completed as one of the Japanese national energy conservation projects. Three types of the cascaded thermoelectric modules operating up to 850 K in high electrode temperature and two types of Bi-Te thermoelectric modules operating...
