Abstract: An air-conditioned seat includes a seat area and a backrest, the seat area and/or the backrest being cushioned with foam. For climate-control, a ventilator, in particular a radial ventilator, is provided, which is in operative connection with an air distribution device in the foam of the seat area and/or the backrest, the air distribution device including an air distribution structure on the side (e.g., a B side) facing away from the seated person, as well as air-conducting channels toward the side (e.g., an A side) facing the seated person. The ventilator is to be disposed in the foam itself, on the B side. The air is transported to the A side via the air distribution structure in the form of air trenches introduced into the foam on the B side, and via the air-conducting channels.

Abstract: A project manufacturing method and system. An embodiment of a method includes receiving project order data to a production order scheduler, mapping the project order data to parameters of the scheduler, and producing a schedule from the mapped data using routines of the scheduler. As such, the method uses the existing production order routines without modification. Exemplary applications include project and product planning and assembly.
