Abstract
In a dispersed manufacturing environment where the production value chain is being dissected and rationalised to take advantage of dissimilar core competencies of geographically isolated firms, manufacturing strategy is required to modify from time to time in accordance with the turbulent market. A 'smart' Decision-Support System (DSS) is proposed with the distinct feature of artificial intelligence capabilities to achieve progressive knowledge acquisition and creation to the entity it is associated with. In particular, this proposed system is characterised by the inclusion of a Neural Object Agent (NOA), which is built upon a newly developed technology coined as neural object technology.
