In the face of increasing competition and diversified demand, product design must be customer oriented for modern enterprises to satisfy the variationally personalized requirements. Thereof; the exact orientation and comprehensive analysis of target customers have been the key to conduct customer oriented product design. This paper presented a new method for the orientation and analysis of target customers by adaptive clustering analysis. By this method, the distribution of customer clusters and the related characteristics of each custer as well as its included customers can be extracted dynamically and adaptively. Applied by this method, the adaptive recommendation system was illustrated for the design of LCD-TV.This paper applied the Autonomous Intelligent System(AIS) to deal with the intelligent activities intelligently and automatically, and thereof provided a new method for the Supply Chain Management(SCM) on MC manufacture. First, a new supply chain model based on E-HUB was presented according to the requirements of MC manufacture, and then the structure and operation of AIS were designed to support that SCM. Finally, the development technology of AIS was discussed.

The Centre for Applied Reconstructive Technologies in Surgery (CARTIS) is a collaboration between the National Centre for Product Design and Development Research at (PDR) Cardiff Metropolitan University and Morriston Hospital. They have been leading the way in developing new techniques and applications for 3D printing in surgery, and improving the accessibility and ease of use of these technologies in the UK. CARTIS hit the headlines earlier this year for the role they played in a complex facial reconstruction (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-26534408) in which 3D printing technology was extensively used. We interviewed Sean Peel, Design and Research Engineer in Surgery and Prosthetics at PDR and a key engineer in recent surgical projects at CARTIS, to get an inside perspective from the frontier of this rapidly developing industry.

Adaptable design aims to extend the utilities of designs and products. Adaptability is classified into product and design adaptabilities. Product adaptability indicates that functionality and life can be extended for both economical and environmental benefits. Design adaptability improves design reuse by using existing designs to develop new designs more efficiently. To evaluate adaptable design, it is necessary to develop a method for quantitative measurement of the adaptability of products. A new method has been developed that first analyzes the independencies of functions and functional modules and then evaluates the adaptability of interfaces with two indices, as well as the performances of adaptive requirements. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by an illustrative example of personal computer motherboards. The results show that the method can evaluate and reveal product adaptability for improving design and providing innovative design.
