Seminar on Multimedia Technologies for Collaborative Design and Manufacturing; Los Angeles, California; Ocotber 8-10, 1997

该奖项支持一个特别关注用于协同设计和制造的多媒体技术的研讨会。研讨会将集中讨论基于多媒体的信息技术和设计、制造工艺、服务/维护和基础设施方面的协作工具。本次专题研讨会的目的是：(1)了解信息技术和协作工具对产品开发的影响；(2)开发关于集成设计、制造和维护/服务系统框架的新系统概念，以改进研究方向和智力集成研究活动。研讨会的成果可以为研究界提供关于综合设计、制造、维护/服务工程的机会和方向的非常有价值的信息。

The award supports a seminar with a special focus on Multimedia Technologies for Collaborative Design and Manufacturing. The workshop will focus on the multimedia-based information technologies and collaborative tools in design, manufacturing processes, service/maintenance, and infrastructure. The objectives of this special seminar are to: (1) understand the impact of information technologies and collaborative tools for product development; and (2) develop new system concepts on integrated design, manufacturing, and maintenance/service system framework for improved research direction and intellectually integrated research activities. The outcomes of the workshop could provide the research community with very valuable information about opportunities and directions of integrated design, manufacturing, maintenance/service engineering.
