don't have time for posting but just show some figures





well that's one of the system architectures in my work. not the classic one but some knowledge inside it. i used it in my first report to my supervisor. just give me ideas what's wrong with it, if u find interesting.

Informal Information Trading

informal information trading. it's the hot topic going round and round around my friends for the time being. well most of my friends want to go into e-manufacturing or virtual enterprise when they finish their master.most talk abt the Dell business model and without a shadow of the doubt, they want to reinvent the wheel. we agree that current Dell model alone can't survive for the next decade. we are now figuring out next generation business model. by the way, we normally check out the evidence with the SCARS source, current, accurate, relevant and sufficient.
bye for now

Theories that change my thinking style.

i must confess, without a shadow of the doubt that Axiomatic Theory and Game Theory change the way i am doing and thinking. actually the Beautiful mind introduced me John Nash and it's win-win concept and Nash equilibrium when i was in myanmar. staying the theory, u can realise urself that what's the context of the strategy and how to act on them effectively and efficiently. i have never read many books for it, but i think Joel Watson's an introduction to game theory is the best one for me as a set-off learner. the other one Axiomatic, so so good. it can tell u how to focus on ur problem domain and some axioms ( information axioms and independance axioms )to get the best ans under a information context. for that one, the principle of design and other books of Professor Nam Suh will be best.
here's the web of Axiomatic Design.

Merry X’mas and Happy New Year


well we had some singing and eating party for X'mas in our SIMTech ( singapore institute of manufacturing ). here it is with my supervisor. ha ha

continue ....my lunch thinking for

well here some i can squeese my brain out

physical capital
human capital
international trade
transfer of technology
transfer of capital
transfer of institution
transfer of management
population
market policy

i gonna go bye for now

my lunch thinking for ....

Hi hi this is my lunch time and I am just thinking that why why why
Well why some countries becomes so rich and some still stay stagnated. Why why now while information technology, transportation and many kinds of prospective technology and industrialization are coming into existence for the undeveloped, why the economic miracle is only landed on a small bunch of countries. That’s the human factor and I am human so I need to think abt it. Ok ok ……….thinking thinking and eating eating ha ha.

my dilemma of forecasting

The dilemma of forecasting

Such a big word for me he he.
Well forecasting it is so tricky and bias to me as a student who don’t have time to cook and no enough money to go eat at the canteen……….becoming ever hungry. He he well well some research work on forecasting says that
Optimism and wishful thinking: that can induce one to which he wants to be. Overconfidence: that’s the one I ever encounter I think. Sometimes I think I am a better forecaster than I really am . The False Consensus Effect: that the way I think that others do and think like i do, may be cos in my childhood, my mother taught I should consider the others as I am whenever I say or do something upon them. She should have taught me like I should find out that they would like the things that I said to them or did upon them. The curse of knowledge: I ever heard someone says that if u get the state of knowledge, u will never get to the original state again. That’s the problem! If u learn something and that can be less obvious to the others who are less informed. So the better optimized solution is don’t go to the game! That’s a kind of win-win position. Ha ha

some personal comment on the "can Japan compete"

People talk abt it so so often. And it's my reference book for my next term sub on the global operation management. i have no significant idea that whether my low grades in the first term or this book, may be both give/s me some impact turning me out into the business strategy more and more. That’s another story.

Well i think that the name is not so good to the aims of the book’s ingredient. Anyway, i feel like very satisfied while i am going through cos may be i also like pointing out the faults critically. The book shows the quick fixes aren’t going to be the ans. What they really needs is the real change in their strategy. I heard some scholar insisted that Japan never grew up. I don’t know how they measure it with what ruler…..

In truth, I never know that only small num of Japanese companies have competitive edge.
They also have the inherent government intervention like limiting and regulating competition in industries. That makes the country business uncompetitive, inefficient and less productive. That simply shows the Japanese government policy actually did not work.

May be I think it will be very hard for the Japanese government to make the necessary policy changes because first they must know what’s wrong with them and then how to fix them. Do relatively old officials will accept the changes and such and such…………………..

morning bla ...bla......

i am now sitting at the front of the computer in my cousin flat. now it's 10.35am and i didn't sleep enough last night. i only got a snap. meanwhile i've decided that i do like the position that i am here for study. i want to go to US or UK for my further study & master plan and go back to my land. now i hear the voice of clashing the pan wooooo somebody is cooking. perhaps, this time in my very own house, my mother might be cooking for her and grandparents. i do miss them all. may be they do to me too cos u can't miss the other all the time. by the way, if u are then, u may be kind of abnormal. well....... it reminds me of my past days in myanmar. i rarely helped my mother housework cos i was so stubborn that always doing my study and exploring and going out with my dudes. I do have so many regrets from that. For her, may be I am a incomparable only son. To my self, exactly not a admirable good son. It’s too bad, too ….
But the fact is that regret is a killer. At least for me, anyway. Sometimes ones tell u that u shouldn’t regret and u’d better try to simply gain the wisdom from the past transgressions without punishing urself over time. But it is genuinely out of the question. All in all if u don’t regret your mistakes, how can u truly claim to have learned from them…………..
So much writing, my stomach is demonstrating ……. For a master student, life is just cooking………….. that’s deadly true……………he he

the embedded intelligence for proactive maintenance

Today manufacturing system needs comprehensive maintenance scheme that enable the zero down time system failure. To accomplish this, various researches have been carried out with the emphasis of preventive maintenance. Condition based maintenance (CBM) is one kind of preventive system and it is used to diagnose the faults only when they are occurred. Recently study of prognostic and diagnostic enhancement to the condition based maintenance system become so intensive. Though current CBM system technologies are very rapidly progressing, the system has some inheriting limitations because every almost of the research frameworks are only focused on the integration of the CBM based prognosis system and traditional wired factory flow control system.

Such system has scalability issues because most of the framework previously studied are based on the centralized control system and it doesn’t meet the distributed nature of the CBM system. For the system level maintenance, the condition assessment will be from sub system level, equipment level, component level and sometimes different methods of sensing can be used on one subcomponent.

There some places which are impossible to access the monitoring data such rotation machinery or hazardous locations. It is also so difficult for where the system is mobile and reconfigurations must be carried out from time to time. According to the study, the current mostly used sensors in condition based system have low life time. It implies that reinstallations and reconfigurations will be matters.

Size and cost will be the other factors here because in the traditional system: sensing devices happens to be relatively large to the sensed components. Wiring cost and ….

So to overcome these constraints, the paper proposes so called “ embedded intelligence “, self configurable, self- healing, tiny wireless sensor networks nodes based design framework for the preventive or proactive condition based monitoring maintenance system.
Under such a unified framework, we pay special attention to the most important awareness issues in wireless sensor networks such as real-time dynamic awareness, energy awareness, spatiotemporal awareness and reconfigurable awareness.

Java system on chip

Java system on chip or java controller (SaJe) from Systronix. it uses the Ajile 100 real time direct execution processor designed for the real time embedded applications with the capability of internetworking. the main advantages are compact and execution time. Minimal direct thread to thread switching time, direct JVM bytecode execution and multithreading support give the competitive edge over the traditional microprocessor based real time embedded system. the technology is promising with the chip size are becoming smaller and cost is getting down. one day we hope that all will be integrated into a single small chip and will be the place where the plantform independent embedded intelligence software are running

C help for A Ma

hi sister, u can ask me here abt ur problem.
this is the Mica2 mote that i am exploring for my dissertation. i am trying to make up the framework of the embedded intelligence for predictive/proactive maintenance. for the sake of embedded intelligence, it is attributable such as tiny, self configurable, self healing, adaptable to the respective environment, self learning, reconfigurable software and hardware platform, cost effective ( large scaled affordable ), fault detectable and prognostic features.

Newton Laws for Graduate Students ( i got it from my friend )

these are the three univeral laws for post graduatate students what my friend said.

Law1.

Graduate student in procrastination tends to stay in procrastination unless an external force is applied to it.

Law2.

F=ma
F=the flexibility of the supervisor
m=the motivation of the student
a=age of the dissertation process

Law3.

for every actions towards graduation, there's equal and opposite distraction.
