Abstract
Integrating islands of information is viewed as the key to integrating islands of automation. In this context the concepts of computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) and shared data bases are reviewed. TRW Corp.'s prototype CIM Data Engine (CDE) is described to illustrate the concept. The CDE uses a hybrid data distribution strategy and ties together a heterogeneous hardware, database management system, and applications environment.Keywords
