Delivering the right option
Article Abstract:
Sales configuration systems solve/avoid the problem of possible miscommunication of product specification from the sales people to the product engineers. These systems also substantially reduce the time used in communicating the specifications. Technological innovations in network communications, the development of high performance personal computers and the gaining popularity of the Internet as a global communications tool have provided quantum leaps in sales configuration systems.

Article Abstract:
Data acquisition and processing can be conveniently done using latest personal computer technology. In data processing, signals relating to physical parameters are collected and changed into meaningful data. This data can be displayed, correlated, stored and processed further. In data acquisition systems, time involved in sampling is very crucial. Research in networking and multi-media development will help virtual instrumentation.

Enduring appeal
Article Abstract:
A number of new technologies have been developed for repetitive tasks. These include Froude Consine's new robot driver system for vehicle testing which features a tubular frame that be installed in a conventional car seat. Another is The West Group's devise which can perform endurance testing for membrane key mat units in cellular telephones. Pneumatics has also been applied to automate pottery production.
