The manufacturing industry offers a huge range of opportunities and challenges for exploiting semantic web technologies. Collating heterogeneous data into semantic knowledge repositories can provide immense benefits to companies, however the power of such knowledge can only be realised if end users are provided visual means to explore and analyse their datasets in a flexible and efficient way. ...

India is a developing country and laying emphasis on the infrastructure growth focusing development of telecommunications, airlines, airports, ports, highways, railways, housing, power, motor vehicles, banking, manufacturing others. The impact seen environment in form air pollution, greenhouse gases emission, water land noise waste generation its management, depletion natural resources, loss bi...

The mam concern of this paper is with longer term differences among individual manufacturing industries in the growth of labour productivity and how such differences are associated with relative movements in output, labour earnings, unit costs and prices Certain relationships between the movements of these variables m Irish manufacturing industries will be examined and the results compared with...

Who will pay for new policies to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions in the United States? This paper considers a slice of the question by examining the near-term impact on domestic manufacturing industries of both upstream (economy-wide) and downstream (electric power industry only) carbon mitigation policies. Detailed Census data on the electricity use of four-digit manuf...

We study the structure of inter-industry relationships using networks of money flows between industries in 20 national economies. We find these networks vary around a typical structure characterized by a Weibull link weight distribution, exponential industry size distribution, and a common community structure. The community structure is hierarchical, with the top level of the hierarchy comprisi...

This study is conducted to developed innovative production planning and control strategies to manufacturing industries so as to improve production performance and competitiveness of basic metal sectors Though the study was conducted through field observation and questioner used as primary data and literature review on research articles, books, and electronic-sources which used as secondar...

The authors examine industry concentration for the U.S. food manufacturing sector. This study is the first to examine whether particular subsectors within the food manufacturing industry, which operate in the presence of industry-funded check-off programs such as marketing orders, are more or less concentrated than industries without such research and marketing programs. The authors find eviden...

Theories featuring multiple equilibria are now widespread across many fields of economics. Yet little empirical work has asked if such multiple equilibria are salient features of real economies. We examine this in the context of the Allied bombing of Japanese cities and industries in WWII. We develop a new empirical test for multiple equilibria and apply it to data for 114 Japanese cities in ei...

during the past two decades business and manufacturing have observed significant and radical changes. companies have used automation in the manufacturing, in order to improve quality and competency. it was expected that along with these changes, management accounting systems, which focus on monitoring and analyzing management decisions, should adapt with and encourage the changes. many authors ...

This paper investigates labor productivity growth and the contribution to labor productivity growth in Swedish manufacturing during electrification and the ICT revolution. The paper distinguishes between technology-producing, intensive and less intensive technology-using industries during these technological breakthroughs. The results show that labor productivity growth and the overall contribu...
