Describes the current research into vision‐based control of remotely controlled vehicles. The research at Robotics and Mechatronics Research Laboratory (RMRL), Monash University, Australia, aims to establish the foundation for future studies in control actions on levers and joysticks for...

A perfectly synchronised manufacturing system is the process where components arrive at the work centres in time for their production, so that excessive in‐process stocks do not build up causing delays to orders, inventory costs are minimised and customer service is improved by delivering...

An application development framework for a software project based on fusion as an object‐oriented application development method is presented. An object‐oriented approach has been adopted for the design and implementation of the prototype interactive visual modelling system for building a...

Reviews some of the aspects of the creation of effective graphs. Illustrates key principles of good chart design using a variety of examples. Acquaintance with these concepts should support managers in the creation of effective charts and graphs for use in documents and presentations.

The paper aims to identify one of the communication techniques which creative designers may use in the annual review/annual report and accounts, described by Hopwood in 1996 as a “largely unresearched document”. It offers a new dimension to add to existing work on graphs, accounting...
