Abstract
This paper describes a planning and control system applied to manufacturers in the People's Republic of China. Having typical Chinese features such as Planning Meeting and Ordering Meeting, the model provided here reflects the reform of economic structure in China. This system is based on microcomputers using. local area network technology and relational database. Aiming to achieve balancing production, the system concentrates on production planning. It presents a method called “Fixed Cycle of Input and Output” for Material Requirement Planning.
