Well, since you ask, I think that the presenter is both brilliant and underpaid (but since that's me I must admit to having a small bias [grin])

Well I'd give him more money for good content, but take it away for crappy sound...... Interesting stuff, I've never worked in a large-scale manufacturing environment but always wondered how they keep track of everything.

i have to say i love the fact that this was taken seriously, but not seriously at the same time - especially the use of the slides for funny pictures. well done.

Why thank you -- I try to create these things in a way in which I would like to see them if I was in the audience -- Max

Good stuff. A very important part of CDM is having the proper data input in the first place by real component engineers rather than high school dropouts. Have seen so many times wrong data and non-standard input descriptions by different people at different times. Having a corporate part number might be just fine for the buyers, but what about the poor design engineer faced with a description such as "restr ntwk" and no other info? One of the 'funniest' muckups was I searched a CDM for an ordinary small signal dual diode. Nothing fancy, just a regular silicon diode pair. The CDM returned a corporate-approved part number, SOT-23 package, specs looked good, the CAE symbol looked right so I designed in the part. I should have hunted up the manufacturer's data sheet. When I got my prototype boards back I found that the "dual diode common anode" was actually a "single diode with two common pins for the cathode". Had to respin the board. When I had the error corrected by the CAE people, other departments across the country could no longer print their schematics until they updated the new library symbol - they had used only one of the two diodes and so never caught the problem. One of the best CDM systems was with HP. This actually had many searchable fields in any order desired, and included a link to the manufacturer data sheet.

You're right -- any system is only as good as the data that is fed in...
