Intelligent Order Matching Systems for Commodity Markets

Automatic order matching systems have emerged as an electronic alternative to traditional markets. In current automatic order matching systems, price and quantity are the only product dimensions used for the order matching. However, a single-commodity market is made up of many heterogeneous goods which are close to each other but different in qualities and delivery conditions. Price and quantity are important but represent only parts of product attributes that commodity traders want to take into account. This study aims to extend current automatic order matching systems by diversifying product dimensions. An intelligent order matching system not only maximizes the total transaction volume based on the price and quantity but also satisfies traders' qualitative preferences over attributes other than price and quantity. The intelligent order matching mechanism combines an economic model with a preference model to incorporate both quantitative and qualitative utility of market participants. Constraint logic programming is investigated as a new information technology to structure and implement the intelligent order matching system.

付华廷与富华集团:打造龙江第一村的新农村风采

当你来到黑龙江省甘南县音河镇兴十四村,那么你关于乡村的概念以及城市生活的优越感会可能会全部崩溃.从齐齐哈尔市向西北行约80公里,高耸入云的“中国富华国际生态产业园”映入眼帘,这就是“龙江第一村”兴十四村的“村标”了.平整洁净的水泥路面延伸过去,豁然展开的是一个面积为3.5万平方米的休闲广场,阳光下音乐喷泉喷射着清凉耀眼的水柱;周边绿树红花中,掩映着一百多栋红顶黄墙的民居别墅和一座三星级宾馆.远处,正在建设中的高大厂房弧光闪烁.你不能相信这是一个村庄,更不能想象这个村庄位于偏远的、至今不通铁路的黑龙江省甘南县.

Unlocking the potential of advanced manufacturing technologies

This research examines whether investments in advanced manufacturing technologies (AMTs) such as flexible manufacturing systems (FMS), computer aided design (CAD), computer aided manufacturing (CAM), robotics, etc., are more likely to lead to improved performance if they are supported by improvements in the manufacturing infrastructure of the company. This question is evaluated using data gathered from 202 manufacturing plants chosen from industries generally considered to have relatively high investments in technology.Multiple item scales are developed and adapted from sources in the literature to measure investments in technology, infrastructure, and the performance of the plant. Evidence supporting the reliability and validity of these scales is provided. Hierarchical regression is used to analyze the relationship between technology, infrastructure, and performance. The results suggest that there is an important interaction between the adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies and investments in infrastructure. Firms that invest in both AMTs and infrastructure perform better than firms which only invest in one or the other. Separate analyses on sub-samples of firms with the highest and lowest investments in AMTs show that infrastructural investments have a stronger relationship with performance in the high investment group. Thus, the data indicate that infrastructural investments provide a key to unlocking the potential of advanced manufacturing technologies.
