Abstract
Industrial production in Central and East European countries is characterised by low productivity. An improvement of the situation would be achieved by a more effective application and use of existing resources and equipment as well as introducing a computer-aided information flow. Shop-floor control systems play an important part as solution to these problems. This paper contains the goals and current results of the Copernicus project „Adaptable Low Cost Shop-Floor Control System“ supported by the European Community. The goal of this project is to develop a low-cost shop-floor control system which should be adaptable in many different Central and East European companies. The first stage of this project has already been finished. The paper contains conclusions after implementation of this project stage.
