Full traceability of products is extremely difficult, although it has been sought after for as long as production, distribution and sales chains exist. Electronic traceability methods, such as RFID technology, have been proposed as a possible solution to this problem. In the specific case of RFID, the number of applications that promote innovative solutions in retail and other areas has been continuous growing. However, RFID tags are mostly placed externally on a surface of products or their packages. This is appropriate for logistics, but not for other applications, such as those involving user interaction. In those, not only is the placement of the RFID tag more complex, but it is also necessary that the tag is not visible or not directly accessible, to prevent accidental damage and intentional abuse. This certainly imposes challenges to manufacturing, but mainly creates new challenges to the development of new products and re-design of existing ones. This chapter presents some insights and what we consider to be the two main approaches to incorporating RFID technology into consumer products.

The appearance of different business roles according to this classification, potentially with differing interests, introduces new challenges with regard to the tools and mechanisms put in place in order to enable the efficient provisioning of services. Security, Quality of Service (QoS) assurance, and real-time capabilities are just a few issues that the providers are trying to tackle and integrate within the new products and services that they offer. In this chapter, we make an overview of the approaches that aim to APIs for real-time computing. In the first part of this chapter, several Real-Time Application Interfaces will be presented and compared. After that, we will document the state-of-the-art regarding the Cloud APIs available and analyze the architecture and the technologies that they support.

Structured Approach

Software engineering emphasises to adopt a well-defined and structured approach to develop any software. Nonetheless, serious challenges exist in the software development process and these challenges are faced in developing software in today's scenario. This is majorly to satisfy the need for developing good quality product which has the capability to meet the “volatile user requirements” in organizations. As new products are developed to tend to the current technological needs, new challenges arise inevitably. So, until a new challenge is encountered, solutions to these unknown and newly arising challenges cannot be devised. Hence, a better software development strategy would be to realise all the previously encountered, more frequent or obvious challenges, and to design an efficient solution to these known challenges beforehand so that no more extra resources and time need to be diverted during the software development cycle in order to overcome the challenges. Therefore, recognizing and addressing the challenges in software development at each and every developmental stage is extremely necessary in order for organizations to succeed. In this study, the authors have attempted to structurally and systematically reviewing the literature to arrive at the software development challenges and provided ways of addressing those challenges. The study also provided for possible solutions and recommendations and scope for future research in this area.

Research And Policy

Recreational cannabis use is in the process of being legalized in Canada, and new products and devices for both nicotine and cannabis vaping are being introduced. Yet, research on the harms of involuntary exposure to electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDSs) and cannabis vaping is in its infancy, and there is a lack of investigation on sex-specific health effects and gendered patterns of exposure and use. We argue that responses to ENDS and cannabis vaping exposures should align with policy and progress on restricting exposure to tobacco secondhand smoke (SHS). Furthermore, we argue that sex, gender, and equity considerations should be integrated in both research and policy to benefit all Canadians.

Seafood is tasty, healthy, and a good source of fat, proteins and minerals. The welfare of the fish, which influences its quality, is of concern to consumers and farmers of seafoods, who are seeking to minimize the use of drugs and the infliction of stress. Processors of seafoods also need to develop new products, technologies, packaging materials and ways of thinking, to fulfill legislative and market demands for fresh, easy to prepare, safe food products, with consistent quality and price. Unfortunately, these new processes render the original species unidentifiable by eye in the final product, which opens the way for substitution of expensive species by cheaper ones of similar characteristics. New challenges to the consumer emerge from the use of molecular biology techniques for the production of novel species, and improvements in technologies for embryonic development. Molecular biology techniques, fortunately, will also help to identify the origin of these species. Our advice: read the label. and eat seafoods!

New Challenges

Product Design is getting nowadays new challenges on developing new products, since the industry is in a rush to introduce products into the marketplace, where customers demand products faster, cheaper, and free of failures. In the meantime, global companies are always trying to improve their Product Design process to get advantages over their competitors using proven tools like FEMA and mixing methodologies like Fuzzy theories with FMEA. Even today using all this tools and combination of methodologies there is a gap to address and it is required a robust risk analysis solving current issues in the electronic industry. This document aims to reveal a novel integrated method, where Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets and Dimensional Analysis are cohesive into a model that minimize the uncertainty of the ranking and prioritization over the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis execution, helping to identify risks within an accurate grade over possible failures in the Product Design process. A real practical example is used to show the proposed method, where it is identified a robust methodology integration and solid and results using a sensitivity analysis.

Quality And Reliability

Abstract: This paper presents the findings of an investigation of the challenges Australian manufacturers are currently facing. A comprehensive questionnaire survey was conducted among leading Australian manufacturers. This paper reports the main findings of this study. Evidence indicates that product quality and reliability (Q & R) are the main challenges for Australian manufacturers. Design capability and time to market came second. Results show that there is no effective information exchange between the parties involved in production and quality control. Learning from the past mistakes is not proving to have significant effects on improving product quality. The technological innovation speed is high and companies are introducing as many as 5 new products in a year. This technological speed has pressure on the Q & R of new products. To overcome the new challenges, companies need a Q & R improvement model.
