engineering management is a diverse field of engineering that struggles with succinctly describing itself. Inevitably, this lack of definition is impairing student enrollment and employer recruiting. For example, the engineering management program at the University of Missouri - Rolla defines engineering management as: "engineering management is the degree that "bridges the gap" between engineering and management and it is the degree that enables a graduate to work with and through people to get things done. More technically speaking, this is the degree that provides graduates with both excellent technical and managerial skills . The degree, in essence combines a typical engineering education (technical) with key elements of a typical management or business education (managerial)" (***, 2007). The U.S. Military Academy however describes engineering management as: "Professionals providing engineering solutions to management and leadership problems. engineering management majors thoroughly study the engineering relationships between the management tasks of staffing, organizing, planning, and financing, as well as the human element in production, research, service, and Army organizations. This highly relevant, contemporary program builds on the traditional roles of the basic and applied sciences and systems analysis, while emphasizing management functions in a technical setting" (http://***/em, 2007). The Stevens Institute of Technology engineering management program states the following about engineering management: "engineering management is a rapidly expanding field that combines engineering, technology, and business. Hi-technology companies in the telecommunications, financial services, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and other industries utilize the concepts and tools of engineering management such as project management, quality management, engineering economics and statistical tools. These technologybased companies recruit engineering mana

A new approach to consensus problems in discrete-time multiagent systems with time-delays

引用

Science in China(Series F) 2007年第4期50卷 625-635页

作者： WANG Long XIAO Feng Intelligent Control Laboratory Center for Systems and Control Department of Industrial Engineering and Management and Department of Mechanics and Space Technologies College of Engineering Peking University Beijing 100871 China

In this paper, consensus problems in discrete-time multiagent systems with time-invariant delays are considered. In order to characterize the structures of communication topologies, the concept of ＂pre-leader-follower＂ decomposition is introduced. Then, a necessary and sufficient condition for state consensus is established. By this method, consensus problems in networks with a single time-delay, as well as with multiple time-delays, are studied, and some necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability of consensus problems are obtained.

In today's competitive environment, employers consistently place high value on graduates that have demonstrated, relevant skills and knowledge. Perhaps the most effective way for acquiring such relevant capabilities is through co-op assignments and internships, yet these generally occur outside of the basic curricula even though they may have some educational credits attached. When incorporating the relevance of engineering practice directly into curricula, the use of input from external advisory boards is valuable and somewhat common. Industry visits, industrial seminar series, and incorporating external lecturers can also be effective in adding relevance to classes. However, while all of these are valuable, the most recognizable measure of having acquired relevant capabilities is achieving industry-specified professional validations and certifications. This requires carefully pre-designed curricula that account for multiple aspects. Merely providing instruction for professional certification tests and exams can border on training rather than educating, and is therefore more appropriate at a trade or commercial school rather than at a traditional academic institution. Using the advice and direction of external advisory boards, pertinent professional certifications have been identified and the content covered therein evaluated relative to its fit with various engineering and engineering technology curricula. By aligning aspects of professional certifications with established curricula, it is possible to integrate and intersperse the fundamentals and scope of the certifications into the curricula. As students move through their engineering or engineering technology programs they acquire the understanding and capabilities required to obtain appropriate professional certifications if they desire. This has been demonstrated for a variety of programs, including: information technology;engineering management;computer science;environmental, health and safety engineering te

Efficient sharing of knowledge is crucial in the building of knowledge work team. The importance in developing appropriate collaborative technologies to be embedded in the knowledge generation and sharing processes has been often undermined for the successful launching of Knowledge management (KM) programmes. This paper outlines the essentials of the new knowledge environment and collaborative technologies that are used to support knowledge work. The type of collaborative technologies and environment required depends on the nature of the business. Two case examples of pending KM programmes, one in an airline industry and another in an electronics manufacturer are illustrated. It is found that a detailed understanding of the business process and customisation and alignment of the technologies are the two most important factors in designing the most appropriate knowledge environment.

Power-aware optimization of CPU and frequency allocation based on fairness of QoS

引用

systems and Computers in Japan 2007年第12期38卷 37-45页

In embedded real-time systems, it is important to reduce energy consumption in order to achieve efficient energy utilization. Many investigations have focused on Quality of Service (QoS) control, which adapts the resource consumption of task execution by adapting the QoS of the tasks. In our past work, fairness of QoS has been focused on in the QoS adaptation control methods we have proposed. In this paper, a CPU clock cycle and frequency allocation problem, whose objectives are to minimize the energy consumption for task execution and to maximize the QoS while guaranteeing fairness of QoS, is formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem. We also propose to obtain a Pareto-optimal solution of the problem by using the weighted-sum optimization method. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Testing impact of knowledge characteristics and relationship ties on project performance

引用

Journal of Knowledge management 2007年第3期11卷 126-144页

作者： Kang, Jina Graduate Program of Technology and Management Department of Industrial Engineering Seoul National University Seoul South Korea

Purpose - The aim of this paper is to empirically test and find the correlation between knowledge characteristics and relationship ties on project performance. Design/methodology/approach - Data were collected via personal interviews based on a structured survey of project managers in a knowledge-intensive firm. The data were analyzed using a multiple regression model. Findings - The results show that project performance was positively related to the frequency and closeness of source, and difficulty of the "knowledge element" described in the survey. Interestingly, against the prevalent view, the source and the level of tacitness of the knowledge element were not found to be significant. Research limitations/implications - Data are limited to specific corporate setting and variables are not exhaustive, despite the fact that this study includes the most theoretically interesting variables. One implication is that strong ties to a knowledge element source are important for project success, but distinctions between internal and external sources, and degree of codification, are not. Practical implications - This study also implies that, in this day and age of knowledge management and chief knowledge officers, most of the important knowledge may already have been codified inside the firm, thus alleviating the past focus on transfer of tacit knowledge. This fact also implies that firms that are left behind in terms of managing their knowledge inside the firm stand to lose a lot more since the other firms are managing their own knowledge base better. Originality/value - This paper incorporates and empirically tests most of the variables considered important to theoreticians and practitioners in the realm of knowledge management and network theory. The latter theory is important in the field of knowledge management because it offers the link and medium in which knowledge travels and transfers.

A statistical analysis of engineering project risks in the Korean shipbuilding industry

引用

Journal of Ship Production 2007年第4期23卷 223-230页

作者： Lee, Eunchang Shin, Jong Gye Park, Yongtae Graduate Program in Technology and Management Seoul National University Seoul Korea Republic of Department of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering Seoul National University Seoul Korea Republic of Department of Industrial Engineering Seoul National University Seoul Korea Republic of

Risk management in shipbuilding projects is important in practice, but there have been few studies about risk assessment in the shipbuilding industry. The purpose of this study is to identify critical risks in shipbuilding projects and to examine the relationships among them, according to the ship production phases. A survey analysis was conducted with 248 experts from 10 major Korean shipbuilders in April 2007, and association rule mining was used as the research methodology. Twenty-six different risks are deduced. At the beginning stage of shipbuilding, it was discovered that design and financial risks were related, and human resource risks in ship design had relatively more influence but financial risks did not. At the block manufacturing stage, important risk factors were management of production equipment, supply of raw materials and labor, and quality management. Financial, technical, and managerial risks all had an important influence at this phase. At the erection stage, technical risks such as changes in design and managerial risks such as exceeding time and budget limits proved to be important. At the project finalization, phase risks were exchange rates, interest rates, timeline, fulfilling specifications, and natural disasters. The research results could be valuable for industrial participants to understand the shipbuilding risks in each construction stage.

The current ABET guidelines place an emphasis on life-long learning for our undergraduate students. What is life-long learning? How can we encourage students to consider global issues, current events, or even anything "that isn't going to be on the next test"? In this paper we present survey results evaluating habits of undergraduate students entering an engineering management program and seniors related to life-long learning including attending professional society meetings, reading trade publications, reading business related books, and other learning outside of the classroom activities. This paper also presents a two semester effort to increase life-long learning activities among undergraduate engineering management students. Changes were made to an introductory sophomore level EM class. Students were required to participate in lifelong learning activities including reading business books and interviewing managers. These activities were graded as part of the required course. Additionally, the students were asked to identify learning activities they would complete the semester following the course - which would not be reflected in their grades. Recommendations for incorporating life-long learning initiatives in the engineering management undergraduate curriculum are also presented. © American Society for engineering Education, 2007.
