Buntrock 9704033 This award supports a 12-month Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) Postdoctoral Fellowship for Dr. Dana Buntrock at the Center for Collaborative Research of the University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan. Professor Buntrock will work with Dr. Terunobu Fujimori, Professor of the Center for Collaborative Research and of the Institute of Industrial Science at the University of Tokyo, on a research project entitled, "Studying Post-Fordist Manufacturing and its Exploitation by Architects." Post-Fordism - identified by increased flexibility, adaptability, and efficiency in the manufacturing process that allows for variable control in production output - has evolved by and large outside North America, and as such its implications for architectural practice are not presently understood by North American architectural professionals. As systems of flexible production developed in Japan much earlier than they did in North America, it is possible to project opportunities for North American architects to exploit Post-Fordist techniques by studying the manner in which architects, contractors, and manufacturers work in tandem in Japan. The proposed research will explore the process of innovation in Japan that occurs between architects, contractors, and manufacturers and will compare the relative effectiveness of this interaction with that which is now occurring in the United States. The goal of the research is to obtain insights into the Post-Fordist manufacturing process that will provide immediate and useful advantages to the United States. ***

Buntrock 9704033 该奖项为日本东京大学合作研究中心的 Dana Buntrock 博士提供为期 12 个月的日本科学振兴会 (JSPS) 博士后奖学金。 Buntrock 教授将与东京大学合作研究中心和工业科学研究所教授 Terunobu Fujimori 博士合作开展一项名为“研究后福特主义制造业及其建筑师的开发”的研究项目。 后福特主义——以制造过程中灵活性、适应性和效率的提高为特征，允许对生产输出进行可变控制——已经在北美以外的地区大体上发展起来，因此北美地区目前还不理解它对建筑实践的影响建筑专业人士。 由于灵活生产系统在日本的发展比在北美早得多，因此通过研究建筑师、承包商和制造商在日本协同工作的方式，有可能为北美建筑师提供利用后福特主义技术的机会。 拟议的研究将探索日本建筑师、承包商和制造商之间发生的创新过程，并将这种互动的相对有效性与目前在美国发生的互动进行比较。 该研究的目标是深入了解后福特制制造流程，这将为美国提供直接且有用的优势。 ***
