First Workshop on Real-World Problem Solving and Decision Making in Design and Manufacturing - in Tokyo, Japan

小行星9634355 该奖项为将于1996年6月在日本东京大学举行的“第一届设计和制造中解决现实问题和决策研讨会”提供资金。来自美国和日本的学者、行业研究人员和从业人员将进行互动，并利用他们的集体经验：（1）汇编、组织和识别设计和制造中的关键现实问题，（2）列出设计和制造中的潜在现实案例，以供调查和演示，（3）制定一个框架，讨论如何在工业界解决现实世界的问题，以及如何在大学和工业界教授这些问题，以及（4）设计一个实施架构，以使用万维网作为开发案例的手段，并在全球课堂环境中使用它们。 如果成功，这项活动的结果将有利于工程和制造公司的本科教育。本次研讨会中确定的设计和制造中的关键问题将为开发案例汇编铺平道路，并为本科生教授现实世界的工程设计技能奠定基础。使用万维网的实施架构将旨在界定和实施全球课堂的概念。研讨会将汇集来自美国和日本的学者和行业人员，他们将共同帮助 汇编和传播当前全球制造环境中所需的实际工程设计技能的信息和专业知识。

9634355 Kumara This award provides funding for the "First Workshop on Real-World Problem Solving and Decision Making in Design and Manufacturing," to be held at the University of Tokyo, Japan during June 1996. Academicians, industry researchers and practitioners from USA and Japan will interact and use their collective experiences to: (1) compile, organize, and identify key real-world problems in design and manufacturing, (2) list potential real-world cases in design and manufacturing for investigation and presentation, (3) formulate a framework for discussion on how real-world problem solving is conducted in industry and how it should be taught in universities and industry, and (4) design an implementation architecture for using the World Wide Web as a means of developing the cases and using them in a global classroom setting. If successful, the results of this activity will benefit undergraduate education in engineering and manufacturing companies. The key issues in design and manufacturing identified in this workshop will pave the way for developing a compendium of cases and form the basis for teaching real-world engineering design skills to undergraduate students. The implementation architecture for using the World Wide Web will aim toward defining and implementing the concept of a global classroom. The workshop will bring together academicians and industry personnel from the U.S. and Japan who will collectively help to compile and disseminate information and expertise on real-world engineering design skills required in the current environment of global manufacturing.
