Abstract :
A description is given of a feasibility study launched by the international manufacturing community to establish a framework for an international, collaborative program focusing on such developments as an intelligent manufacturing system (IMS) or next-generation advanced manufacturing technologies. A second goal is to determine whether an international collaborative program in this area can be created and structured equitably and beneficially.<>
