The smash product algebra has been generalized to general smash product algebra in [3] and we can generalize the smash coproduct coalgebra to obtain the general smash coproduct coalgebra. It is natural to replace the smash product and smash coproduct by the generalized smash product and generalized smash coproduct and consider the condition under which the generalized smash product algebra structure and the generalized smash coproduct coalgebra structure will inherit a bialgebra structure or a Hopf algebra structure. We derive necessary sufficient conditions for the problem. This generalizes the corresponding results in [7] and [4].

A continuous development of new products is the lifeblood for firms that hope to maintain competency in competitive environments. Ongoing success in these environments is dependent on whether the management can choose or can't chose the proper mix of new product development strategy, new product development process, and organizational structure. Rather than considering the interrelationship among these success factors, however, most previous studies of new products development have examined these issues individually. Moreover, because past research has been unidimensional in nature, there is a lack of knowledge about how new product development strategy, process, and structure could be linked up each other. Consequently, we have no complete perspective of the linkage among new product development strategy, process, structure, and performance. The purpose of this study is to examine the new product development strategy, process, and structure of firms, and explore the effect of each on performance as well as linkage among strategy, process, strategy and structure.

Engineering change (EC) objects are the data structure and related operations that can support applications for EC procedures or processes. Their functionalities include controlling management data, specifying related product structure, and archiving a history of product structure changes for EC management. In this paper we introduce a systematic approach to support the propagation of changes between different product structure views using the history of structure changes in EC objects. The change propagations supported by EC objects enable designers to maintain the consistency of multiple product structure views for engineering, manufacturing or even customer support applications. This paper also includes EC examples and experimental implementations for the proposed EC objects.

In order to satisfy customers'various needs in the market, manufacturing companies tend to add similar variants to an existing product model. This variety causes immense growth of product configuration and makes data management uncontrollable. In order to resolve this problem, we propose a method to efficiently represent the variants in a single schema of product structure and configuration and manage the product configuration. First of all, the product structure which adopts the concept of features and options is suggested. Second, the method to represent option specifications which restricts option configurations is proposed. Finally, the prototype module, which inspects if a product configuration violates the option specifications, is introduced.

In this research we have developed a prototype which manages a product structure and configuration of a product under distributed heterogeneous computing environments. First, the data schema for product structure and configuration which can represent options and effectivity is proposed. Second, a technique to use JAVA and CORBA is suggested for the exchange of product structure among multiple servers in CITIS environments. Functions of the prototype related to option-based product structure are described to help readers' understanding.

Since product design strongly depends on the experience and ability of the designers, and a long lead time is required for the product design stage, introducing a support system related to this experience and ability is an effective technique to reduce the lead time. In this paper, an information system is developed to support the development of engineering mechanisms with the evaluation of the assembly process on the basis of the abstract functions required for new products. The developed system is based on a database system involving the following data structure: (1) a hierarchical structure related to information about the product functions, (2) the relationship between the parts and engineering functions and/or mechanisms of products, and (3) the relationship between the parts and manufacturing characteristics. The system stores the relationships between the product functions, structure of parts, and assembly characteristics. This information can then be interactively retrieved using the data structure described in (1), (2), and (3). A procedure for designing new products is proposed that involves using the information about existing products. This paper presents the characteristics of the proposed procedure and the developed information system. In addition, a case study of the redesign of a simple structured robot by using the proposed procedure is discussed.

An advanced TFT-LCD structure was proposed to increase aperture ratio (AR). In this structure, metal layers formed below the data lines are used as light-blocking layers, achieving higher AR ratio than that of a conventional structure. Since average misalignment between the metal light-blocking layers and pixel electrodes is smaller than that of black matrixes on color filter glass, substantially less light-blocking areas are needed to achieve misalignment margin. The AR of the LCD panel fabricated by using proposed structure was enhanced by 18.7 % over that of the conventionally structured panel.

As a product structure or BOM(bill of material) of products is hierarchically structured, the design based on the concept of relational data base modeling causes low performances in data search or processing. For this reason, an object-oriented approach to designing a product structure is proposed in this paper. Using Rumbaugh's OMT (Object Modeling Technique) method, classes of parts, BOM structure, options, and models are defined and their class-relationship diagrams are proposed. For the representation of the BOM structure suitable for the object-oriented paradigm, a new data architecture called the BOM item class is suggested. It is expected that the proposed data structure ensures better reusability and expandability due to the modularity.

In this paper, module of a product is determined by the characteristics of a product itself and art assembly process. To analyze the characteristics o( the product, assembly function, structure of subassembly and parts could be considered. Based on the analysis of characteristics of product structure, assembly process and product function, determination criteria of a module could be proposed. For the assembly process, assembly methods, assembly equipment and workers could be considered. For the product structure, constituent object and structural feature could also be considered. To obtain the interrelationship between the product and the assembly process, the matrix table could be used to find the influencing factors that affected the module.

This paper proposes a product data model that can express and enforce integrity constraints on product structure during engineering changes (ECs). The model adopts and extends an active object-oriented database model in order to Integrate IC data and their integrity constraints. Tightly integrated with product structure, It will enable designers to maintain and exchange consistent EC data throughout the product life cycle. In order to properly support operations for ECs, the model provides the data, operations, and Event-Condition-Action rules for nested ECs and simultaneous EC applications to multiple options. in addition, the EC objects proposed In the model integrate the data and Integrity constraints into a unified repository. This repository enables designers to access all EC data and integrity constraints through the product structure and relationships between EC objects. This paper also describes a prototype product data management system based on the proposed model In order to demonstrate its effectiveness.
