This phenomenon is particularly pronounced in the auto-industry, which requires an extended period for new product development. During the research and development of next generation automobiles, the final integration of testing and product validation is a crucial and time consuming process in the application of new technology to the stages in demonstration of a technology in products. Proper utilization of technology tools and management techniques to reduce the time needed during the testing and product validation phase allows an enterprise to quickly commercialize the results of research and development without compromising product quality. This study presents case studies of the successful reduction of time needed for research and development in the auto industry, drawing on a database created though actual and simulated road-chassis structural stress tests. The data is compared and analyzed to obtain the optimal signal combination target between the two, with the goal of approximating actual endurance testing through accelerated simulation, greatly reducing the time frame for testing and product validation, and increasing the marketability and economy of new products.","PeriodicalId":168329,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '08 - 2008 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering & Technology","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128596209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the U.S. the creation of technology entrepreneurs is an essential element of economic growth, job creation and global competitiveness. This study describes an intercollegiate entrepreneurial experience aimed at unlocking the inner technology entrepreneur in students. A model for Accelerating Collegiate Entrepreneurship (ACE) is proposed, linking theories of technology entrepreneurship creation with linkages to curricular and pedagogical inputs. A survey instrument is used to ascertain the level of entrepreneurial intent as well as a cluster personality assessment and an educational preparedness assessment. A biased sample of entrepreneurship in the College of Business students is introduced as a comparative measure for students in the College of Engineering. The preliminary data suggests that engineering students tend towards long-term entrepreneurial intent, yet traditionally the education system does little to encourage these tendencies, nor prepare them for the management of these technologies. A longitudinal study will follow this work to affect changes to the curriculum and pedagogy in a manner that helps accelerate the creation of successful technology entrepreneurs.","PeriodicalId":168329,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '08 - 2008 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering & Technology","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127081094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a partnership that includes high schools, corporations, and Cleveland State University, talent and resources have been pooled to design a continuum of support that begins in high school and continues through college graduation, with participating students called Fenn Scholars. This long-term partnership begins by reaching into partnering high schools in the region and connecting the high school students to university engineering students and faculty as well as industry partners through a customized pre-engineering program. From that point, qualified Fenn Scholars will be offered industry-supported scholarships, course credit transfer, and potentially industry internship opportunities as incentives to consider engineering as a career. For those Fenn Scholars who select to attend the University, they may be able to participate in peer mentoring, industrial internships, and research. Finally, upon graduation, efforts will be made to connect these Fenn Scholars to jobs at area companies.","PeriodicalId":168329,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '08 - 2008 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering & Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129147973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The final goal of good IT governance is rather to provide the business with the support needed in order to conduct business in a good manner. This paper describes the IT organization modeling and assessment tool (ITOMAT) and how it can be used for IT governance decision making. ITOMAT consists of an enterprise architecture metamodel that describes IT organizations. ITOMAT further contains a Bayesian network for making predictions on how changes to IT organization models will affect the IT governance performance as perceived by business stakeholders. In order to make such predictions accurately, the network learns from data on previous experience. Thorough case studies at 20 different companies have been conducted in order to calibrate the network. Finally, the paper describes a case study where ITOMAT was used to analyze the future impact of two IT organization change scenarios in a medium sized engineering company.","PeriodicalId":168329,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '08 - 2008 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering & Technology","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126269161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although it is too early to evaluate the outcomes of inviting global IT R&D centers only after two years or less of their working, the Korean government is being advised to employ a more customized invitation strategy. In this paper, an analytic framework for the attraction of global R&D centers is developed based on the attractiveness-competitiveness matrix, and is applied empirically to the IT industry. Fourteen major IT technology categories and their sub-technological fields are classified into four strategic groups (priority group, wish group, consideration group, and hold group) along the framework via expert surveys and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique. This study is expected to help the government to implement the dasiaselect and concentratepsila strategy in inviting global R&D centers and creating synergies among them by providing basic data on global R&D partnership priorities.","PeriodicalId":168329,"journal":{"name":"PICMET '08 - 2008 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering & Technology","volume":"18 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123033904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
