Abstract
In this chapter, we describe the case study of a real-time database system for a specific kind of operational data generated by an agile manufacturing system. The term agile manufacturing refers to a manufacturing system that can fabricate various products simultaneously without long downtimes for retooling. The agile manufacturing increases competitiveness of companies in the market by decreasing the downtime and reconfiguration overhead incurred due to product changes. The agile manufacturing concept is already in a stage of practical use in some companies, for example, pager manufacturing at Motorola [19], or customized bicycles from Panasonic [5].
