The National Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (NEMI) plug and play factory project

The National Electronics Manufacturing Initiative's (NEMI) plug and play Factory Project addressed the issues of how to quickly integrate new pieces of electronics assembly equipment into a shop floor line management system and how to manage the vast amounts of data available in today's electronics manufacturing environment. The necessary technical infrastructure was designed, developed, and demonstrated over a two-year period. New standards activities for electronics manufacturing were initiated where existing standards were either nonexistent or insufficient to achieve the project goals.
