目前面板產業中為了解決產品交貨與庫存問題，製造商與上游供應商共同分享在製品、需求預測及補貨資料。但是面板業並無特定之通訊流程與介面標準，來有效地在企業間交換與整合這些資訊。因此，本研究設計了一個符合面板業的生產運籌資料交換(Production Planning Data Exchange, PPDE)之模擬環境平台。在本平台中，利用webMethods於每間廠商均建置一台生產運籌整合伺服器(Production Planning Integration Server, PPIS)，其對外可與其他廠商透過RosettaNet標準進行B2B資料交換，而對內則可透過所具備之應用介面(Application Interfaces)，與各式內部系統進行整合與通訊。本平台亦提供一些後端模擬報表介面，以呈現系統之整合效果與運作狀況。我們以合作廠商提供之實際資料進行模擬系統的整合測試，測試結果顯示本平台運作順利，並有好的性能。相信本研究成果可提供一個有效整合企業內外部資訊之解決方案，提升我國面板產業的國際競爭力。

In current TFT-LCD industry, manufacturers and their upstream suppliers share the data of work in process (WIP), demand forecast, and material replenishment for resolving the problem of product delivery and inventory. However, the TFT-LCD industry has no specific communication processes and interface standards to effectively exchange and integrate these data among enterprises. Thus, this study designs a simulation environment platform of production planning data exchange for the TFT-LCD industry. In the platform, the webMethods is utilized to create a production planning integration server (PPIS) in each factory. The PPIS can externally perform B2B data exchanges with other factories by the RosettaNet standards. In addition, it is capable of integrating and communicating with various internal systems by the provided application interfaces. Several back-end simulation report interfaces are also offered to show the integration effects and operational statuses of the platform. The real data provided by our co-operative enterprise are used to conduct integrated tests for the simulation system. Testing results demonstrate that the developed platform can run smoothly and have a good performance. It is believed that the research results can provide a solution for effectively integrating internal and external data among enterprises so as to increase the global competitive ability of our nation’s TFT-LCD industry.
