After the events of early 2022, import substitution issues are being actively discussed in economic sphere. One most problematic areas is microelectronics – production semiconductors and chips for a variety parts devices. The Government Russian Federation developing various options increasing electronic components. However, there large number problems associated with fact that no country comple...

“Passive” convergence of knowledge and technologies has had an important effect on manufacturing development. Manufacturing enterprises have evolved for the most part as centralized and concentrated urban complexes, primarily driven by the need to minimize manufacturing costs. Examples include the automobile industry of southeastern Michigan and the electronics manufacturing complex in Shenzhen...

The power electronics industry and the semiconductor industry, inseparably intertwined with one another, are facing unprecedented efficiency, cost, construction and thermal challenges which provide many opportunities for innovation. These industries are in the focal point of the “energy challenge” a multifaceted problem that involves mobile and cloud infrastructure systems, Internetof-Things, r...

The MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) and the Association of Musical Electronics Industry (AMEI) have produced the Mobile XMF standard, which was developed particularly for mobile MIDI applications. Mobile XMF is a very compact media type providing high-quality synthetic audio content for music downloading and messaging applications that require MIME registration. This document registers the...

New waste management legislation provides a driver for materials recovery, industrial ecology, and remanufacturing practices throughout the global electronics industry. Paradoxically, the resulting regulations are incongruent and unsustainable because the targeted practitioners can neither legally re-use the resultant reclaimed materials nor legally store or dispose of the ensuing wastes.

Powders and divided solids are widely used in industry as intermediate or finished products in many fields: foods, cosmetics, construction, pharmaceuticals, transport, electronics and, of course, nuclear energy. Optimizing their use requires control of processing based on an understanding of the phenomena involved (sintering, chemical reactivity, purity, etc.). Modeling and understanding these ...

Managing a successful Software Process Improvement (SPI) is a challenging issue that many software companies face today. Many companies have invested huge amount of money in improving their software processes. This can be confirmed through several papers that present the results of SPI programs. However, as pointed out by the literature, many of these programs have encountered difficulties to a...
