This volume encompasses state-of-the-art developments in AI-based reactive scheduling for real-time operation management in manufacturing shop floors.

The fundamental reason for the existence of any manufacturing organization is to generate wealth by adding value to the products and services it offers. This book brings together the works of researchers to present state-of-the-art research and development on 'the strategic management of the manufacturing value chain' in the broadest sense.

On November 9-11, 1998,85 participants, representing 17 countries, gathered in Aubum Hills, Michigan, at the Chrysler Tech Center, to attend a workshop "SSM'98" (or Sculptured Surface Machining '98) organized by IFIP Working Group 5.3.

The workshop looked at new paradigms for CAD including the evolution of geometric-centric CAD systems, modeling of non-rigid materials, shape modeling, geometric modeling and virtual prototyping, and new methods of interaction with geometric models.

Mastering interoperability in a computing environment consisting of different operating systems and hardware architectures is a key requirement which faces system engineers building distributed information systems.

System Modelling and Optimization covers research issues within systems theory, optimization, modelling, and computing.
