US-Turkey Workshop: Recent Advances in Mechatronics, Istanbul, Turkey, May 24-26, 1999

该奖项将支持一个美国科学代表团参加1999年5月24日至26日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行的美国-土耳其机电一体化研讨会。该讲习班将与第二届国际机电一体化会议联合举行。首席研究员是佛罗里达国际大学机械工程系的Sabri Tosunoglu教授。土耳其的联合组织者是伊斯坦布尔博斯普鲁斯大学电气工程系教授兼主席Okyay Kaynak博士。研讨会和会议的目的是传播这一领域的最新进展，为参与者及其机构之间积极寻求合作提供论坛，并讨论未来的研究方向，特别是确定美国和土耳其科学家的合作机会。涵盖的主题将包括：机电一体化设计、分布式系统、视觉和传感器、机器人和移动机器、振动和控制、机电一体化中的计算智能、嵌入式实时系统、微机电一体化、运动控制、硬件/软件协同设计、智能制造系统以及机电一体化的教育和培训。范围：该项目将汇集来自不同机构的10位知名美国科学家，他们是机械和电子领域各个主题的专家，他们将与土耳其同行一起确定共同研究的领域。这次会议还将使美国科学家能够与来自欧洲国家和其他国家的科学家进行互动，并参加有关这一重要领域的信息介绍，探讨计算机和电子技术的进展。土耳其组织者Kaynak博士是博斯普鲁斯大学联合国教科文组织机电一体化主席，是该领域的知名权威。这一建议符合国际情报机构的目标，即支持可能在共同关心的领域加强合作的联合双边讲习班。

9820071TosunogluDescription: This award is to support a US scientific delegation to a US-Turkey Workshop on Mechatronics, to be held in Istanbul, Turkey, May 24 to 26, 1999. The workshop will be held in association with the Second International Mechatronics Conference. The Principal Investigator is Professor Sabri Tosunoglu, of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Florida International University. The Turkish co-organizer is Dr. Okyay Kaynak, Professor and Chairman, Department of Electrical Engineering at Bosphorus University in Istanbul. The objectives of the workshop and conference are to disseminate the recent advances in this area, provide a forum to actively seek cooperation between the participants and their institutions, and to discuss future research directions, and especially to identify opportunities for collaboration by US and Turkish scientists. The topics to be covered will include: mechatronics design, distributed systems, vision and sensors, robots and mobile machines, vibration and control, computational intelligence in mechatronics, embedded real-time systems, micro mechatronics, motion control, hardware/software co-design, intelligent manufacturing systems, and education and training in mechatronics.Scope: This project will bring together 10 well known American scientists, from different institutions, who are experts in various topics in the fields of mechanics and electronics with their counterparts in Turkey to identify areas for joint research. This meeting will also enable the US scientists to interact with scientists from European countries and from other countries and to attend informative presentations about this important field exploring the advances made in computer and electronics technologies. The Turkish organizer, Dr. Kaynak, is the UNESCO Mechatronics Chair at Bosphorus University, and is a well-known authority in this field. This proposal meets the INT objective of supporting joint binational workshops that are likely to increase collaboration in areas of mutual interest.
