Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) is organizing the 5th Global Symposium On Sustainable Product Development and Life Cycle Engineering to be held in Rochester NY, September 18-21, 2007. This symposium is a follow-up to the São Carlos, São Paulo, Brazil Workshop, October 2006, the Workshop in Shanghai Conference at the Jiao Tong University, October 2005, the Berlin Conference in the Production Technology Center (PTZ), September 2004 and the Environmentally Benign Manufacturing (EBM) workshop held in Birmingham, Alabama, in January 2003. This symposium brings together leading global researchers and practitioners to provide a forum for information sharing, collaboration opportunities, stakeholders dialogue on a subject of tremendous importance to our nation. The themes for this symposium is on the production of alternative energy systems, integration challenges in achieving sustainable production systems, and international collaboration in this field. While most conferences focus on the energy technology itself, this conference will specifically address the sustainability of the systems and processes that go into the production of alternative energy sources as well as life cycle impacts. The broad utilization of a technology such as fuel cells cannot be realized unless these issues are addressed. The symposium will also address the topic of Integration in Sustainable Systems and Sustainable Processes for Production of Alternative Energy Systems as seen by industry, university, research, governmental, and independent institutions. The symposium will also focus on integration challenges in achieving sustainable production systems. While progress has been made in many areas related to sustainable production, integration challenges in addressing the social, economic, and environmental aspects continue to represent a major obstacle to organizations. The symposium will provide a forum to discuss and explore ideas focused on addressing the integration challenges and assess the existing gaps. This will provide researchers an opportunity to identify the research and collaboration opportunities related to this challenge. The symposium will bring together leaders from the US, Japan, China, Brazil, Germany to establish strategic direction and collaboration both for current and future engineers.

罗彻斯特理工学院(RIT)将于2007年9月18日至21日在纽约州罗切斯特市举办第五届可持续产品开发与生命周期工程全球研讨会。本次研讨会是2006年10月在巴西S举办的S·卡洛斯研讨会、2005年10月在交通大学举行的上海研讨会、2004年9月在柏林举行的生产技术中心会议以及2003年1月在阿拉巴马州伯明翰举行的环境友好制造研讨会的后续活动。这次研讨会汇聚了全球领先的研究人员和实践者，为信息共享、合作机会和利益相关者就对我们国家极其重要的主题进行对话提供了一个论坛。本次研讨会的主题是替代能源系统的生产、实现可持续生产系统的一体化挑战以及该领域的国际合作。虽然大多数会议侧重于能源技术本身，但本次会议将具体讨论替代能源生产的系统和过程的可持续性以及生命周期影响。除非这些问题得到解决，否则不可能实现燃料电池等技术的广泛应用。研讨会还将讨论工业、大学、研究、政府和独立机构所看到的可持续系统的整合和替代能源系统的可持续生产过程的主题。研讨会还将重点讨论在实现可持续生产系统方面的一体化挑战。虽然在与可持续生产有关的许多领域取得了进展，但在处理社会、经济和环境方面的一体化挑战仍然是各组织面临的主要障碍。研讨会将提供一个论坛，讨论和探讨侧重于应对一体化挑战和评估现有差距的想法。这将为研究人员提供一个机会，以确定与这一挑战相关的研究和合作机会。研讨会将汇集来自美国、日本、中国、巴西和德国的领导人，为现有和未来的工程师确定战略方向和合作。
