Faced with ever-increasing market demands, manufacturing  industry is forced to seek innovation and technological breakthrough.  This state-of-the-art text aims to integrate broad aspects of  precision and production engineering to cope with rapid changes in  market needs and technological developments as we enter the 21st  century. It addresses basic theory, extensive research in advanced  topics, industrial applications, and relevant surveys in related  fields.   Major subjects covered by this book include:    Advanced manufacturing systems;    Ultra-precision machining and  micro machining;    Nanotechnology for fabrication and  measurement;    Chemo-mechanical processes;    Rapid  prototyping technology;    New materials and advanced processes;     Computer-aided production engineering;    Manufacturing  process control;    Planning.     This volume contains the proceedings of the 10th International  Conference on Precision Engineering (ICPE), which was held in July  2001, in Yokohama, Japan. ICPE is a well-established conference in the  field of production and precision engineering, covering a wide range  of topics for future-oriented manufacturing systems and processes; it  is organized by the Japan Society for Precision Engineering (JSPE).  This book can be used as a reference for graduate and undergraduate  courses in precision and production engineering, and also for  researchers and industrial engineers to capture current trends in this  field.
