	Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing
		To a large extent, electronics manufacturing has become truly global, and it is difficult to characterize many companies and their products as American or foreign.
		Employment in communications equipment manufacturing is also expected to decrease by 10 percent due to automation and consolidation among firms in the industry.
		The computer and electronic product manufacturing industry is characterized by rapid technological advances and has grown faster than most other industries over the past several decades, although rising costs, imports, and the rapid pace of innovation continue to pose challenges.

	Computer-Integrated Manufacturing for Electronics
		Manufacturing improvements achievable with CIM could be realized much more rapidly and cheaply if the electronics industry had a common framework, or architecture, for integrating databases, communications networks, and software-based production applications.
		Representatives of major automotive and electronic firms agree that there is significant overlap of technical issues to be addressed in building CIM frameworks for their respective industries.
		In this unsettled environment, large manufacturers either are adopting a "wait and see" attitude, or they are expending significant resources on customized integration approaches, which is not an option for smaller electronics firms.
