EMS - EMS

Japanese: EMS - いーえむえす
EMS - EMS
A service or company that manufactures and designs electronic devices without owning its own brand. With the lifespan of electrical appliances, especially PCs, becoming shorter and shorter, this service has become more widespread because manufacturers can reduce costs by outsourcing to a specialized manufacturing company rather than maintaining factories with excess equipment. For manufacturers, this service reduces costs by reducing factory and labor costs, while for outsourced companies, it allows them to trade with other companies rather than just one company, and it is expected that manufacturing technology will improve, and production lines and equipment can be used more effectively. This is a service that has great benefits for both parties. Expanded Memory SpecificationOne of the memory expansion standards for MS-DOS, established by Microsoft, Intel, and Lotus. It is also called the LIM standard. In order to make the most of conventional memory, which has a small capacity, a function called paging was used to make it possible to use memory areas exceeding 1MB. Later, XMS, which is an extension of the EMS concept, came to be used. Conventional Memory PagingXMSElectronics Manufacturing Contract ServiceA company that specializes in the production of electronic devices contracted by other manufacturers. Televisions, computers, and other products have many common parts, so by receiving orders from multiple manufacturers, they can accumulate technology and achieve mass production benefits. For the ordering manufacturer, there are benefits such as reduced manufacturing costs and shorter delivery times.

Japanese:
自社ブランドを持たずに電子機器の製造や設計を担うサービス、またはその種の企業。パソコンを中心として、電化製品の短命化が加速する今、メーカー本体が過剰設備の工場を維持するよりも、製造専門の会社に委託(アウトソーシング)するほうがコストの抑制につながることから広がってきたサービス。メーカー側にとっては、工場や人件費の削減によるコストダウンを図れる一方で、アウトソーシングされた側も、一社だけの需要ではなく、他社との取引も可能となるほか、製造技術の向上も見込め、生産ラインや設備などの有効活用ができるとあって、両者にとってメリットが大きいサービスである。Expanded Memory Specificationマイクロソフト、インテル、米Lotus社によって定められた、MS-DOSにおけるメモリー拡張規約のひとつ。LIM規格とも呼ばれる。容量の少ないコンベンショナルメモリーを最大限活用できるように、ページングと呼ばれる機能を使って、1MBを越えるメモリー領域を利用できるようにした。その後、EMSの考え方をより拡張したXMSが利用されるようになった。コンベンショナルメモリーページングXMS電子機器製造受託サービス他メーカーから受託した電子機器の生産を、専門に行う企業のこと。テレビやパソコンなどは、共通部品が多いため、複数のメーカーから製品を受注することで、技術の蓄積や量産効果を図れる。発注するメーカー側には、製造コストの削減、納期短縮などのメリットがある。OEM
