• Hyun W

Abstract

Aviation industry is composed of three main fields which are manufacturing, transportation and MRO. MRO is a series of industrial business including Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul in which manufactured aircrafts are ensured to exercise specified performance use in the design maintaining reliability and safety. MRO　business market is expected to grow continuously by 2030. Aviation industry is a typical complex industry in which diverse technologies are fused into one product. In the field, new technology provinces, for instances, rooting from electronics, material, information technology, nanotechnology and ergonomics have been arisen and coordinated one system. Recently, owing to enormous development of information technology, Ubiqutious computing technology begins to be applied in MRO field. Here, some relevant issues are discussed.
