Abstract

I believe that the integration of digital technology in designs is very necessary and cannot be avoided. This is because of its extensive effects on architecture and its general ambiguity. This paper, I believe, will make it possible for individuals and institutions to analyze and decide appropriately on the use of digital prefabrication, as a new technology in the design systems. Although many opinions have been presented with different position statements, the immediacy of proactive consideration on the digital systems is of utmost importance. In this paper, I have explored the relationship between CAD and CAM, computer and production.

Improvement of quality by elimination/ variation of a process

Quality in a process measures its excellence and its freedom from deficiencies. The general process of quality improvement starts with recognition that quality deteriorates due to wear and time (Adams and Carroll 36). The other step involves stabilizing and understanding the process. The next process is designing products as robust from their earliest stages to design phases. This is achieved by making a product insensitive to the natural environment (Adams and Carroll). The Taguchi approach can be applied for optimizing mature projects and processes. To obtain the best output, an empirical equation of the system is applied. Input factors are set ...

Communication is the process by which information is conveyed or transferred from a source to a recipient. The process usually involves conveying useful information between two parties (Berlo, 1960).

In short, communication usually requires a common language for it to be effective. This means that a difference in language (language barrier) can cause a serious problem in communication (Berlo, 1960).
