Machine-independent parameters, such as the flow front velocity and the melt viscosity at specific flow-path sections will act as control variables.
"Although all of our Scientific Molding courses underscore the importance of documenting
machine-independent process information, techs should also document and note changes when running any process," says Andy Routsis, company president.
The core of this revalidation strategy revolves around matching the four plastics variables on any press in which the mold runs, and documenting the process in
machine-independent terms.
While the iSeries line is getting the Squadron platform and its Power5 servers first (mainly because OS/400 already had a
machine-independent hardware abstraction layer and support for logical partitions that made snapping in the new "Virtualization Engine" hypervisor a relative snap), it could turn out that the pSeries line gets the big Squadron boxes first when AIX 5L 5.3 is ready, in late September or early October.
Founded in 1979, Phoenix Technologies helped launch the digital revolution when it created the
machine-independent BIOS software, which ships in more than 100 million new systems each year.
It is tempting to make the analogy that both systems use a
machine-independent bytecode.
Examples of
machine-independent process parameters include melt temperature, coolant temperature entering and leaving the mold, coolant flow, first-stage fill time, first-stage fill weight, second-stage packing time, second-stage plastic pressure, gate-seal time, cooling time, plastic backpressure, screw recovery time, overall cycle time, final part weight, clamp tonnage, and dewpoint.
Founded in 1979, Phoenix Technologies helped launch the digital revolution when it created the industry's leading
machine-independent BIOS software, which ships in more than 100 million new systems each year.
UCSD Pascal produced
machine-independent intermediate language code (sound familiar?) which was then interpreted by a machine-specific interpreter (sound familiar?), one per target computer (one of the many heterogeneous computers on which UCSD Pascal programs could run).
In fact, Unix was the only
machine-independent operating system that had achieved widespread support, and to this extent its choice was inevitable.
