“…Although they are hidden behind web applications and services, databases store essential data items of user and business related data. Recent technology advances have also led to new database-centric web-based applications such as ecommerce [2,3], e-services [4,5], management information systems [6,7,8], and many other applications. Consequently, the amount of data handled by DBMS has rapidly increased in recent years.…”

Workflow management systems have gained momentum in recent years due to the several benefits they provide. This paper describes the business process and development of a web based enterprise level Workflow Management Information System (WKFMIS). This system is suggested to manage workflow activities involved in the process of repair requests handling and maintenance of computer systems and associated peripherals in the Faculty of Engineering and Technology (FET) at the University of Jordan. This is achieved by analyzing the process activities involved in an existing paper-based manual workflow management system with the aim of improving the existing business process and automating most of the related activities. A fully functional prototype is developed and deployed in the FET working environment. Key technologies suitable for this approach are identified and implemented. Performance of the developed system is assessed practically and an efficient, stable and user-friendly operation is demonstrated.

“…This model is less comprehensive than Wilson's estimator and has not been compared with other similar systems. Luo et al [10] also developed a parametric time/cost estimator, but it is based on more generic parameters for every additive process, such as layer thickness, number of layers, Z-height, etc. The system is intended to operate within a web-based platform, but no information or case studies are provided for this method.…”

Cost assessment for rapid manufacturing (RM) is highly dependent on time estimation. Total build time dictates most indirect costs for a given part, such as labour, machine costs, and overheads. A number of parametric and empirical time estimators exist; however, they normally account for error rates between 20 and 35 per cent which are then translated to inaccurate final cost estimations. The estimator presented herein is based on the ability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to learn and adapt to different cases, so that the developed model is capable of providing accurate estimates regardless of machine type or model. A simulation is performed with MATLAB to compare existing approaches for cost/time estimation for selective laser sintering (SLS). Error rates observed from the model range from 2 to 15 per cent, which shows the validity and robustness of the proposed method.

“…The time which is necessary to form a single layer also comprises: the time for cooling or for solidification of deposited material; the non-productive time for prototype vertical movement and other There exists no general function to estimate build time but specific formulas can be defined, each of them adapted for a specific machine that uses a specific technology. Some methods for build time estimation are presented in literature (Jiangand P. Fukuda S 2001, Alexander et al, 1998Giannatsis et al, 2001;Luo et al, 2003;Byun and Lee, 2006;Zhao et al, 2006). These methods calculate the total build time by computing the geometry through a detailed analysis of the activities associated to the prototyping process.…”
