Abstract
This paper describes the efforts by U.S. industry to develop the technology and standards needed to support the concept of Enterprise Integration. Several specific industry programs are described. Also included is a description of how the various U.S. Government agencies are working together through the Next Generation Manufacturing Initiative to address issues such as Enterprise Integration. The specific efforts by the National Institute of Standards and Technology are described, in terms of two programs, the National Advanced Manufacturing Testbed and the Systems Integration for Manufacturing Applications.
