0340902Batteau This U.S.-Mexico workshop will support a meeting of a group of scientists and engineers from the United States, Mexico, France, Belgium, Ukraine, Cameroon, Morocco, and Taiwan. Organized by Dr. Allen Batteau of the Wayne State University and Dr. Carmen Bueno of the Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City, the meeting will aim to further our understanding of the challenges posed by large-scale, tightly coupled systems. These systems, whether air transport, electrical power grids, irrigation schemes, or pharmaceutical regimes, span multiple physical and cultural regions, and present unique complexities in their operation. For example, the power grid failure of August 15, 2003 was a vivid reminder of the operational challenges to safety and reliability these systems pose. The proposed workshop is the first step in a long-term international collaboration to study these issues. Participants will compare baseline studies on one industry, civil aviation, to validate the nature and extent of the problem, and to develop an agenda for further research and improvement strategies. With the validation of the basic concepts and agenda, the results of the workshop will be made available to industry and government representatives to develop mitigation strategies and solutions. This workshop has the goal of promoting safety and security both in civil aviation as well as other industries where large-scale, tightly coupled systems are found. The world is a much smaller place than it was just three years ago, and large-scale, tightly coupled systems have demonstrated their capability to transmit threats not simply from one nation to another, but from one continent to another. By developing new operational approaches, including new organizational relationships and new forms of communication and training between more- and less-advanced regions, these threats to safety and security can be reduced.

0340902 Batteau美国-墨西哥研讨会将支持来自美国、墨西哥、法国、比利时、乌克兰、喀麦隆、摩洛哥和台湾的一组科学家和工程师的会议。这次会议由墨西哥城州立大学韦恩的艾伦·巴托博士和伊比利亚美洲大学的卡门·巴托博士组织，目的是进一步了解大规模、紧密耦合的系统所带来的挑战。这些系统，无论是航空运输、电力网、灌溉计划还是制药制度，都跨越多个自然和文化区域，并在其运作中呈现出独特的复杂性。 例如，2003年8月15日的电网故障生动地提醒人们，这些系统对安全性和可靠性构成了运营挑战。 拟议的讲习班是研究这些问题的长期国际合作的第一步。 与会者将比较民航行业的基线研究，以验证问题的性质和程度，并制定进一步研究和改进策略的议程。 随着基本概念和议程的确认，研讨会的结果将提供给工业界和政府代表，以制定缓解战略和解决方案。这次研讨会的目标是促进民用航空以及其他存在大规模紧密耦合系统的行业的安全和安保。世界比三年前小得多，而大规模紧密耦合系统已经证明它们不仅能够将威胁从一个国家传播到另一个国家，而且能够将威胁从一个大陆传播到另一个大陆。 通过发展新的业务方法，包括新的组织关系以及较先进和较不先进区域之间的新的交流和培训形式，可以减少这些对安全和安保的威胁。
