We present a developed Web-based product design and manufacturing system that supports collaborative Concurrent Engineering. It models distributed systems and databases using Web technologies, so that these distributed system and databases can be accessed anywhere in the world. In such system, product developers can exchange and share product data, communicate with other team members, modify geometry data on particular aspects of the design and maintain operations consistency in all the distributed cooperative sites on a wide variety of platforms. The new system is a Client/Server architecture. The server manages the sharing of the common model, as well as the coordination among multiple users, in which different users can modify different parts of the shared model. In addition, the server supports many client through the Internet, and it also allows peer to peer negotiation, sharing different databases located in different machines, establishing relations between them at run time. A group of users can work together in a common single write mode, which continuously synchronized with the master copy on the central server. The proposal model is producing a new manner and has many algorithms for viewing, editing, synchronizing, and collaboration coordination. It utilizes Java 3D to view 3D CAD files in interactive manner. It introduces an intelligent user interface for editing and modification. STEP, which is international standard introduced by the International Standards Organization (ISO), is used to exchange engineering information. Java Server Page (JSP) is used for Collaboration coordination and semantic-based coordination.

Internet based product information sharing and visualization is the foundation for collaborative product design and manufacturing. This paper presents a Web based framework with a STEP based product data master model and VRML based visualization techniques for visualizing and sharing product information among designers, production engineers and managers, purchasing and marketing staff, suppliers, and customers. A prototype software environment is implemented to validate the proposed framework and related technologies.

Web-based Code Management System (WCMS) is an essential tool for realizing information exchange in distant collaborative product design and manufacturing among global-based enterprises. A framework for WCMS is built up on a three-tier client/server system and the WCMS is developed utilizing JAVA and J2EE technologies. The developed WCMS mainly uses servlets and JSP to handle user inputs and manage and retrieve code data from the database through the JDBC driver, with the server components stored on a middleware program called Tomcat. The WCMS developed in this work has been successfully implemented in an enterprise.

In this paper, web-based design and manufacturing systems are compared with a commercial CAD/CAM system from the point of usability. The web-based systems included in this study were MIcro Machining System (MIMS) and SmartFab. In the MIMS architecture, a 3D model in STL format was read via a web browser, sent to the web server for toolpath planning, and NC codes were generated to be fed back to the designer through the web connection. In the SmartFab system, SolidWorks was used as the design interface with provided modified menus for micro machining. These additional menus were created by SolidWorks API that also provided web-based links to the toolpath planner. In the commercial CAD/CAM case, without using any web connection, SolidWorks or CATIA was used for design, and PowerMill was used as a CAM tool. For each design and manufacturing system, accessibility, user-friendliness, toolpath-reliability, and processing time were compared. Total 91 students tested these systems in undergraduate CAD class, and the feedback showed better performance of the web-based system in accessibility, user-friendliness, and processing time. However, reliability of the web-based system showed necessity of further improvement.

Jurusan Manajemen saat ini berupaya melakukan inovasi dan perbaikan administrasi diawali melalui penelitian. Penelitian mengenai revitalisasi administrasi  dilakukan dalam upayanya melakukan perbaikan administrasi di Jurusan Manajemen Undiksha. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan karena pada prinsipnya penelitian ini berupaya untuk mengembangkan sistem administrasi dengan sebelumnya mendeskripsikan konten apa saja yang  perlu direvitalisasi di Jurusan Manajemen. Hasil penelitian ini adalah desain aplikasi administrasi yang selanjutnya dikembangkan menjadi prototipe produk dalam bentuk sistem administrasi dokumen menggunakan web-based technology dengan bahasa JAVA. Dalam pengembangan produk sistem administrasi  tersebut dilakukan tahapan riset dengan menggunakan waterfall model yang mencakup: (1) analisis kebutuhan (requirement analysis), (2) desain produk (product design), (3) pengembangkan produk (product development), (4) melakukan uji coba produk (product testing), dan (5) pemeliharaan produk sistem administrasi (maintenance).

Abstract New techniques in Information Technology are now changing not only our daily life, but also the professional practice of product design and manufacturing for new product development. Internet technology in particular opens up another domain for building future CAD/CAM environments. This environment will be a global, network-centric environment with various members providing different software tools, manufacturing facilities, and analysis services for distributed design and fabrication. In this paper, we first briefly describe a vision and current development in a distributed design and manufacturing environment. The paper then emphasizes how current CAD tools will evolve to facilitate the distributed design and fabrication process. In particular, the development of a set of Web-based design tools for fabricating parts using a machining process via the Internet is presented. Experiments on machining 2-1/2 D and freeform parts through this Java-based design tool have shown the feasibility for a networked machining service via the Internet.
