Understanding SOA, Web Services, BPM, BPEL, and More Part One: SOA, Web Services, and BPM ( Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Dec 22, 2004 Abstract : In the larger schema of things, SOA would espouse general, more abstract concepts of software reusability and encapsulation within certain boundaries (as to then provide access to that software via defined interfaces), Web services would then make these SOA concepts vendor-independent due to their use of generally accepted standards, while BPM and BPEL would be some of the engines making the whole system work.

Master Requirement Planning and Master Production Scheduling Software: Hard Facts Part One: Planning and Scheduling Concepts in Manufacturing ( Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Oct 11, 2004 Abstract : Most of the manufacturing software vendors have planning and scheduling software which assume either infinite production capacity for calculating quantities of raw material and work in progress (WIP) requirements or infinite quantities of raw and WIP materials for calculating production capacity. There are many problems with this approach. This paper discusses the pitfalls of this approach and how to avoid these by making sure that the software you buy indeed takes into account finite quantities of required materials as well as finite capacities of work centers in your manufacturing facility.

Are ASP Applications Right for You? Part 1: Decision Factors ( Pages)
by Miles Szczurek
Aug 22, 2001 Abstract : Like so many Internet conventions, the Application Service Provider (ASP), is really a combination of two 'old' concepts, turn key applications and outsourced services. Many of the lessons learned from these areas are directly applicable to ASP provided applications, and many of the same questions need to be asked and answered before a determination can be made on whether an ASP application should be considered.

Can ERP Speak PLM? Part Two: Examples and Recommendations ( Pages)
by Jim Brown
Aug 2, 2003 Abstract : Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions have to work with many other systems, not just ERP, so integration is not a new issue for PLM vendors. Most PLM vendors recognize the need for integration and have addressed the need in their toolkits. The additional work comes from integrating the concepts and semantics of one system to the next, if this business level integration has not already been provided between the two systems. This can be a big challenge for best of breed vendors, who may need to rely on systems integrators for much of this conceptual and semantic integration.
