In today's fast-paced and competitive manufacturing landscape, industries worldwide face the pressing challenge of optimizing production processes to meet ever-growing demands for efficiency, quality, and sustainability. Traditional manufacturing systems often need help to meet these demands, leading to inefficiencies, quality issues, and increased costs. To address these challenges, there is a critical need for a comprehensive understanding of advanced production management principles, such as the Toyota Production System (TPS) and its evolution into the Advanced TPS. Revolutionary Automobile Production Systems for Optimal Quality, Efficiency, and Cost serves as a definitive guide for scholars seeking to understand and implement the principles of TPS and Advanced TPS in modern manufacturing management. By offering a deep dive into these systems' philosophy, theory, and practical applications, the book equips readers with the knowledge and tools needed to revolutionize their manufacturing processes. Whether you're a scholar looking to expand your knowledge or a practitioner seeking to enhance your organization's manufacturing capabilities, this book offers a compelling solution to modern manufacturing challenges.

The 6th International Symposium on Artificial Heart and Assist Devices met in Tokyo in July 1996, bringing together researchers and specialists from around the world. The symposiums proceedings in this volume comprise papers from nine sessions, each opening with contributions by leading scientists: TAH, heart transplantation, biomaterials, VAS, clinical application, pathophysiology, engineering, new approaches, and special sessions. Of special note is the inclusion, for the first time, of pathophysiology related to clinical use of assist devices. The clinical application section includes a paper by Dr. Michael DeBakey on the progress made in recent years. With descriptions of the scientific exhibition, accompanied by photographs of all artificial heart devices and systems displayed by major laboratories and manufacturers, Artificial Heart 6 presents the latest information on developments in the field of artificial heart, biomaterials, and heart transplantation.
