The initial thought that came to me was a colossal task involving hundreds of people and taking tens of years to complete. The decision of the topics to be included is equally daunting. We met a couple of timesinpersonandovertheInternettosizeupthescopeandcontactanumberof potentialvolumeeditors.Aftermanyattemptsandsoundingoutprominentauthors, I managed to convince three section editors to take on this task, which was still a long way from the 12 section editors planned. In May 2011, I approached the Executive Director of SIMTech, Dr Lim Ser Yong, for his help and a joint presentationtogetherwithAnilandSandrawasmadetohisresearchgroupleaders on the significance of such a project. He gracefully agreed.

Manufacturing is evolving continuously, engulfing more technologies than several decades ago. The rapid development of Internet technology, computer science, materials research, microelectronics, and biosciences has propelled manufacturing activities far beyond mere product fabrication.
