Download or read book Acquisition for the 21st century the F 22 Development Program written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense has recently charted a new course to further improve the way in which it provides weapon systems for the war fighter. This path has seen a fundamental change in how members of the Government/industry acquisition team work together to develop America's arsenal for defense. These changes center around the use of Integrated Process and Product Development concepts and the use of empowered, multifunctional teams, called Integrated Product Teams. Integrated Product Teams have been used successfully in industry for a number of years. One particularly successful example has been the use of Integrated Product Teams on the Boeing 777 program. Now several programs in the Defense Department are operating under these concepts. The earliest, and the leader in these concepts, is the Air Force F-22 Advanced Tactical Fighter development program. In this book, Lieutenant Colonel Michael D. Williams, USAF, first describes the principles and the concepts of the F-22 program.
Download or read book Complex Systems Design Management Asia written by Michel Alexandre Cardin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-16 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers all papers presented at the third edition of the international conference “Complex Systems Design & Management Asia” (CSD&M Asia 2018), which was held at the National University of Singapore (NUS) on December 6-7, 2018. Mastering complex systems requires an integrated understanding of industrial practices as well as sophisticated theoretical techniques and tools. This vision was the inspiration for creating an annual forum in the Asia-Pacific region dedicated to bringing together academic researchers & industrial actors working on architecture, modeling & engineering of complex technical & organizational systems. These proceedings cover the latest trends in the emerging field of complex systems, both from an academic and a professional perspective. Special emphasis is placed on “Smart Transportation.” The CSD&M Asia 2018 conference is organized under the guidance of CESAM Community which is managed by the non-profit organization CESAMES. The goal of CESAM Community is to structure the sharing of good practices in enterprise and systems architecture, and to certify the level of knowledge and proficiency in this field by means of CESAM certification.

Download or read book New World Situation New Directions in Concurrent Engineering written by Jerzy Pokojski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 599 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proceedings contain papers accepted for the 17th ISPE International Conference on Concurrent Engineering, which was held in Cracow, Poland, September 6-10, 2010. Concurrent Engineering (CE) has a history of over twenty years. At first, primary focus was on bringing downstream information as much upstream as possible, by introducing parallel processing of processes, in order to prevent errors at the later stage which would sometimes cause irrevocable damage and to reduce time to market. During the period of more than twenty years, numerous new concepts, methodologies and tools have been developed. During this period the background for engineering/manufacturing has changed extensively. Now, industry has to work with global markets. The globalization brought forth a new network of experts and companies across many different domains and fields in distributed environments. These collaborations integrated with very high level of profesionalism and specialisation, provided the basis for innovations in design and manufacturing and succeeded in creating new products on a global market.

Download or read book Applications of Declarative Programming and Knowledge Management written by Dietmar Seipel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a selection of papers presented at the 15th International Conference on Applications of Declarative Programming and Knowledge M- agement, INAP 2004, and the 18th Workshop on Logic Programming, WLP 2004, which were held jointly in Potsdam, Germany, from March 4th to 6th, 2004. Declarative programming is an advanced paradigm for the modeling and solving of complex problems. This speci?cation method has become more and more attractive in recent years, for example, in the domains of databases, for the processing of natural language, for the modeling and processing of combinatorial problems, and for establishing knowledge-based systems for the Web. The INAP conferences provide a forum for intensive discussions of appli- tions of important technologies around logic programming, constraint problem solving, and closely related advanced software. They comprehensively cover the impact of programmable logic solvers in the Internet society, its underlying te- nologies, and leading-edge applications in industry, commerce, government, and social services. The Workshops on Logic Programming are the annual meeting of the Society for Logic Programming (GLP e.V.). They bring together researchers interested in logic programming, constraint programming, and related areas like databases and arti?cial intelligence. Previous workshops have been held in Germany, A- tria, and Switzerland. Thetopicsoftheselectedpapersofthisyear’sjointconferenceconcentrateon three currently important ?elds: knowledge management and decision support, constraint programming and constraint solving, and declarative programming and Web-based systems.
Download or read book Offsite Production and Manufacturing for Innovative Construction written by Jack S. Goulding and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The offsite and modular market is continuing to grow. This book builds on the success of a number of initiatives, including formative findings from literature, research and development and practice-based evidence (success stories). It presents new thinking and direction from leading experts in the fields of: design, process, construction, engineering, manufacturing, logistics, robotics, delivery platforms, business and transformational strategies, change management, legislation, organisational learning, software design, innovation and biomimetics. This book is particularly novel and timely, as it brings together a number of cogent subjects under one collective ‘umbrella’. Each of these chapters contain original findings, all of which culminate in three 'Key Learning Points' which provide new insight into the cross-cutting themes, interrelationships and symbiotic forces that exist between each of these chapters. This approach also provides readers with new contextualised understanding of the wider issues affecting the offsite market, from the need to embrace societal challenges, through to the development of rich value-laden solutions required for creating sector resilience. Content includes a balance between case studies and practice-based work, through to technical topics, theoretical propositions, pioneering research and future offsite opportunities ready for exploitation. This work includes: stakeholder integration, skills acquisition, new business models and processes, circularity and sustainable business strategies, robotics and automation, innovation and change, lean production methodologies and new construction methods, Design for Manufacturing and Assembly, scaled portfolio platforms and customisability, new legal regulatory standards and conformance issues and offsite feasibility scenario development/integration.
