IFIP - The International Federation for Information Processing
IFIP was founded in 1960 under the auspices of UNESCO, following the First World
Computer Congress held in Paris the previous year. An umbrella organization for societies
working in information processing, IFIP's aim is two-fold: to support information processing
within its member countries and to encourage technology transfer to developing nations. As
its mission statement c1early states,
IFIP's mission is to be the leading, truly international, apolitical organization which
encourages and assists in the development, exploitation and application of information
technology for the benefit of all people.
IFIP is a non-profitmaking organization, run almost solely by 2500 volunteers. It operates
through a number of technical committees, which organize events and publications. IFIP's
events range from an international congress to local seminars, but the most important are:
• the IFIP World Computer Congress, held every second year;
• open conferences;
• working conferences.
The flagship event is the IFIP World Computer Congress, at which both invited and
contributed papers are presented. Contributed papers are rigorously refereed and the rejection
rate is high.
As with the Congress, participation in the open conferences is open to all and papers may
be invited or submitted. Again, submitted papers are stringently refereed.
The working conferences are structured differently. They are usually run by a working
group and attendance is small and by invitation only. Their purpose is to create an atmosphere
conducive to innovation and development. Refereeing is less rigorous and papers are
subjected to extensive group discussion.
Publications arising from IFIP events vary. The papers presented at the IFIP World
Computer Congress and at open conferences are published as conference proceedings, while
the results of the working conferences are often published as collections of selected and
edited papers.
Any national society whose primary activity is in information may apply to become a full
member of IFIP, although full membership is restricted to one society per country. Full
members are entitled to vote at the annual General Assembly, National societies preferring a
less committed involvement may apply for associate or corresponding membership. Associate
members enjoy the same benefits as full members, but without voting rights. Corresponding
members are not represented in IFIP bodies. Affiliated membership is open to non-national
societies, and individual and honorary membership schemes are also offered.

Preface
This volume includes 41 revised papers selected from 125 papers presented at the
6th IFIP Technical Committee 5/Working Group 5.7 International Conference on
Advances in Production Management Systems - APMS'96 - held at Kyoto, Japan,
4-6 November 1996. The task of selecting papers was accomplished by the IPC
members voting. The selected papers were reviewed by IPC members who attended
the conference. Based on the comments of reviewers, each paper was revised and
rewritten in the format of this book. Therefore, the quality of each paper was raised
very much.
The papers selected in this volume were classified into invited articles and six
themes taking into account the perspectives and future challenges in production
management systems. Invited articles provide the overview of the present and
future trend in the manufacturing world. Six themes were Next Generation
Manufacturing Systems and Production Management, Benchmarking, Integration in
Manufacturing and Decentralized Production Management, Strategic Aspects,
Production Planning, and Production Scheduling. Each theme covers important
area of present and future production management reflecting the recent trend in
manufacturing toward globalization, agility in variety production, human centered
manufacturing, environment consciousness, and so on.
We hope that this volume will emerge a lot of new ideas to reach the goal of IFIP
WG5.7 "Computer Aided Production Management" and to bridge the gap between
research and industrial practice in production management systems.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the individual of the
international program committee of APMS'96 who joined the task of voting for
selecting high quality papers from all the papers presented at APMS'96, and to
those who reviewed the selected papers to raise the quality of the papers. We are
strongly indebted to Dr. Itsuo Hatono and Ms. Mie Kuronaga of Osaka University
for their great efforts in the preparation of this volume.
