Abstract :
There has been tremendous growth in connectivity options in modern programmable controllers. Modern databases have become more accessible to applications and multiple computer platforms; databases have become more friendly. In parallel with these developments, the manufacturing organization has changed. A discussion is presented of the benefits and costs of combining these tools. The system that is created also results in the shrinking of level two of the five-level manufacturing model.<>
