Abstract: Abstract Hi-tech markets in such fields as system LSI technology led by Japanese semiconductor manufacturers and digital household appliances led by Canon, Matsushita, Sharp and other companies have been rapidly emerging in recent years due to the strength of demand for digital products in Japan. Matsushita has been achieving new heights in profits and market share particularly with hi-tech products in which semiconductor, software, opto-electronics, broadband communications and other technologies have been integrated. Matsushita has captured global market share by adopting such revolutionary production reforms as cell production and speedy new product development through core technology black-boxing and flexible, modularized designs. (Matsushita holds the No. 1 position in global market share for DVD recorders.)
