Abstract: A cost comparing system includes a plurality of client computers (10), an application server (12), and a database (14). The cost comparing system is connected to a manufacturing system (15), a supplier goods providing system (16), and a sales quoting system (17). Each client computer provides a user interface for inputting and obtaining information from the application server. The application server is for computing item costs and comparing costs with prices. The application server includes a basic information maintaining module (21), a BOM copying module (22), an outsourcing item cost posting module (23), a standard BOM computing module (24), an item cost collecting module (25), a price maintaining module (26), a comparing module (27), and a statement generating module (28). The database is for storing basic information, computing results, maintaining results, comparing results and generating statements. A related cost comparing method is also provided.

Abstract: A system for automatically updating versions of software programs in client computers includes: client computers (1), each including software programs (10) and a version update inquiry module (11); an application server (2) including a version number obtaining module (200), a comparing module (201), a connecting module (202), and an updating module (203); a database (3) for storing version numbers of newest versions of the software programs; and an FTP server (4) for storing the newest versions of the software programs. Each time a software program is operated by a user in a client computer, the version update inquiry module sends an inquiry to the application server. The application server responds by determining whether the current version of the software program is the newest, and updating the software program to the newest version obtained from the FTP server if the current version of the software program is not the newest.

Abstract: A system for mold production scheduling includes a mold production scheduling server (1), and terminal computers connected to the mold production scheduling server via a network (6).
