摘要
This paper discusses the fundamental nature of manufacturing following a critique of paradigm shift in manufacturing in the past century. The components of manufacturing complexity and recent approaches to measuring manufacturing complexity are reviewed and discussed. The drive for agile manufacturing and its characteristics is discussed in terms of flexibility and responsiveness. Finally, the link between complexity and agility and the likely next-generation manufacturing system is discussed.
