Modelling & Management of Engineering Processes
SIG MMEP Workshop at ICED 2011 - Copenhagen - Denmark
Tuesday, 16th August 2011, 14:15-17:45
Current Research and Future Directions
Chaired by: John Clarkson, University of Cambridge, and Sandor Vajna, Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg
Engineering processes are the "glue" that hold the activities within product development and design together. Engineering processes structure these activities appropriately, secure their reasonable processing, and ensure the correct and timely use of the appropriate approaches & procedures, methods, data, and tools in order to improve the design process, improve products and services, and properly document product development processes and the products themselves. It is the aim of this group to contribute to a smart and smooth definition, application, and navigation of Engineering Processes within the scope described above. Our membership is a diverse group of academics, researchers and practitioners from different industries.
The Agenda proposed for the MMEP workshop is as follows:| 14:15 | Welcome |
| 14:25 | Brief summaries of activities since workshops in Dubrovnik and Stanford - MMEP Conference, Cambridge, UK (John Clarkson) - IPD Workshop, Magdeburg, Germany (Sandor Vajna) - MMEP EU Practitioners' Group Workshops (Peter Heisig) |
| 14:45 | Presentation of a number of selected papers, followed by a discussion of the work presented. Papers will be selected to provide a coherent platform for debate. |
| 15:45 | Break |
| 16:15 | Discussion continues |
| 17:00 | Discussion on the next steps for the development of the SIG, reflecting on future events, future management of the SIG and further development of the SIG community through targeted collaborative research. |
| 17:45 | Close |
