CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-Cycle Support) is a program to improve US Government major systems acquisitions processes in light of current technology. Specifically, CALS is an initiative to enable and accelerate the integration of digital information in the processes for major systems design, manufacture, support, and acquisition. The goal is to transition from today's paper-intensive, sequential, life-cycle processes to integrated, digitally-based, concurrent processes.

Being competitive in today's world market requires that companies be able to bring products to market in as short a time as possible, while at the same time satisfying the needs of customers. The introduction of Total Quality Management (TQM) concepts and standards such as ISO9000 require that the product development process becomes more disciplined. The application of systems engineering techniques on a project can achieve the needed discipline. The application of project management concepts are essential in creating a development plan, schedule and in allocating resources.

Today's business environment is incredibly dynamic: budget cuts, shorter development cycles, reduced payrolls, staff down sizing, out-sourcing, improved customer service requirements, higher performance standards, and global competition combine to create a formidable business environment. Companies looking for a better way to meet these market demands have embraced project management; a proven method for increasing performance in a high stress environment.

Speciality memories, such as FIFO devices, derive their high performance from their architecture as well as their underlying technology. The need for higher speed in FIFO devices has resulted in the introduction of faster and faster devices, with access times as low as 10 ns, such as the QS7204-10. Nevertheless, traditional FIFO interfaces, even at the 10 ns access time level, fall short of meeting today's leading edge CPU performance requirements. Clocked interfaces allow better utilization of the memory bandwidth and can provide data rates of 66 MHz and beyond in real world system environments. High speed, 36 bit wide FIFO devices, packaged in the fine pitch TQFP package, enable high performance, high density system designs. This paper focuses on three aspects of FIFO devices: speed, word depth, and additional value added features to show how these enhancements can boost system performance and board efficiency. >

The device models are used in simulation of power converter circuits to enable accurate simulation of switching waveforms. Two selected power MOSFET models are thoroughly evaluated through C-V plots, gate charge plots, and converter data. Any proprietary model can be evaluated using three simple simulations.

The Neighborhood Electric Vehicle is one of the newest transportation options. It may develop into one of the largest international forms of personal transportation since the bicycle. A lightweight, fresh approach to personal mobility within the community where lack of speed and range are not liabilities, it provides basic transportation for to and from. The Neighbourhood Electric Vehicle promotes community-based business, safe neighborhoods and community schools, It will help clean up our air, reduce traffic congestion, and two of them can fit in one parking spot. It's ready, willing, and able and is here today using existing technology.

Electric bicycles powered with today's nickel-metal hydride batteries offer a 100 km range between recharges and have a potential of 300 km when polymer batteries become available. The author discusses the development of the electric bicycle, presents a mathematical model, and considers general requirements. The available battery powered electric bicycles are listed and some test comparisons are given.

Electric microcars, providing local mobility, are automatically loaded onto maglev trucks for the longer commute on a guideway located on a barriered inside lane of the existing freeways. Stations are located above the freeway. An elegant command and control sub-system matches capacity to traffic requirements and automates normal operation. The EV transportation company will be investor-owned because it will be profitable. A federally-sponsored development and demonstration program, employing proven technology, is described.

Washington IS0 9000 Initiative and Washington Manufacturing Networks have formed a jointventure network project targeted to assist small to medium-sized firms to become I S 0 9000 registered. A "network" is defined as three or more companies working together to achieve what they are unable to accomplish individually. The goal of this particular network is to have the member companies realize economies of scale and cost savings not available to them as individual companies. The Washington IS0 9000 Initiative (WAISO), a subsidiary of the nonprofit organization International Standards Initiative (ISI), has been established to act as a clearinghouse and coordinator for IS0 9000 related information, seminars, and training programs. Washington Manufacturing Networks 0, is administered by the Washington State Department of Co"ity, Trade and the Economic Development and the Council of Seattle & King County. WMN is tasked with developing manufacturing networks to diversfi and improve the competitiveness of small to medium sized firms who are currently defense industry dependent. Targeted industries include aerospace, metal working, machinery and equipment, transportation and high technology. Washington IS0 9000 Initiative will serve as program director for the duration of the networks.

ISO 9000 is an international standard that outlines the attributes of a quality management system. The ISO 9000 standard describes practice for a company to follow in order to demonstrate that a determined level of quality is assured in their products and services. Customer and internal pressures frequently drive companies to rush the registration process. Many businesses are therefore encountering detours that prevent the smooth implementation of an ISO 9000 compliant quality system. Such detours often lead to unnecessary costs, misallocation of resources, implementation delays, and employee frustrations.
