A Data Management System for Field Workers Using Smart Phones

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mobile manufacturing is a mobile application which can be a key to address manufacturing functionalities with ease from anywhere, anytime. This paper presents a web based-mobile data collection tasks generator for mobile manufacturing. It is specially designed for small-medium enterprises which do not have advanced IT system development skills but need to quickly design and distribute form-based data collection tasks. These forms contain important information to tell mobile workers where to go and what job to do when they get there. The tasks are created by assigning the forms to workers from the website. The website lets you view, map and manage which forms are deployed to which mobile users.
