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, IPIP'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 clearly 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. IPIP'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
The availability of effective global communication facilities in the last
decade has changed the business goals of many manufacturing enterprises.
They need to remain competitive by developing products and processes
which are specific to individual requirements, completely packaged and
manufactured globally. Networks of enterprises are formed to operate across
time and space with world-wide distributed functions such as manufacturing,
sales, customer support, engineering, quality assurance, supply chain
management and so on. Research and technology development need to
address architectures, methodologies, models and tools supporting intra- and
inter-enterprise operation and management. Throughout the life cycle of
products and enterprises there is the requirement to transform information
sourced from globally distributed offices and partners into knowledge for
decision and action.
Building on the success of previous DrrSM conferences (Tokyo 1993,
Eindhoven 1996, Fort Worth 1998), the fourth International Conference on
Design of Information Infrastructure Systems for Manufacturing (DrrSM
2000) aims to:
• Establish and manage the dynamics of virtual enterprises, define the
information system requirements and develop solutions;
• Develop and deploy information management in multi-cultural systems
with universal applicability of the proposed architecture and solutions;
• Develop enterprise integration architectures, methodologies and
information infrastructure support for reconfigurable enterprises;
• Explore information transformation into knowledge for decision and
action by machine and skilful people;
These objectives reflect changes of the business processes due to
advancements of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the
last couple of years.
DrrSM 2000 has attracted a large number of contributors. All proposed
abstracts were considered by the Organising Committee before accepted for
presentation of the full paper. Each full paper was reviewed in a confidential
reviewing process by three of the forty members of the International
Program Committee (JPC). For a paper to be accepted, the paper must be
accepted by at least 2 reviewers. We would like to thank the Chairman of
JPC, Prof. John Mills, Dr. Jan Goossenaerts and members of JPC who
worked hard to ensure the quality of the papers.
