Arias","doi":"10.1109/ICE.2012.6297682","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICE.2012.6297682","url":null,"abstract":"Lean product and process development (Lean PPD) is an emerging paradigm wherein lean thinking is considered in the design and development of engineering products. Although lean design and lean product development have received attention in previous works, process development has received little; research in this area is necessary to improve the concurrency of product and process development. Integration of manufacturing knowledge at the conceptual design stage is of paramount importance to increase the designers awareness of manufacturing capabilities and opportunities. As a result, design rework can also be minimized and possible manufacturing plans can be effectively explored. This challenge leads to the first questions that we intend to address: How can designers be made aware of manufacturing capabilities and constraints? Set-based concurrent engineering (SBCE) has been pronounced in literature as one of the main enablers for Lean PPD. However, there is no formal methodology to integrate manufacturing planning activities in SBCE. This led to a second research question: how can a set-based approach be applied to process development in the concept development stage? The idea of incorporating lean manufacturing principles has been addressed in previous research, however, there has not been in terms of methodological contribution. Researchers have mentioned that although it is important to reduce waste by improving the manufacturing process, there is some waste that is designed in, and needs to be prevented in the actual design. This gap led to a third research question: How can design options be evaluated to ensure that waste is prevented and lean manufacture is supported by designers? This paper proposes a systematic methodology to communicate manufacturing capabilities and constraints to designers and also support a set-based approach to manufacturing planning activities. A methodology to evaluate design options against lean manufacturing criteria is also presented. Opportunities to apply the research described in this paper are curently being explored in order to evaluate the research through case-based research.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127521121","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}

{"title":"A methodology for developing serious gaming stories for sustainable manufacturing","authors":"H. Duin, M. Oliveira, K. Thoben","doi":"10.1109/ICE.2012.6297706","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICE.2012.6297706","url":null,"abstract":"Any kind of innovation introduced in a manufacturing enterprise also has to face sustainability issues. Sustainability combines environmental, economic, and social dimensions and is considered to be a complex and hard to learn subject needing a lot of experience to create competence. Therefore, the construction of a serious game to support the generation of such competences is not trivial. The aim of this paper is to present the Contextualized Interactive Story Driven Development (CISD2) methodology for developing a serious game scenario, which was developed for facilitating the content creation process of a technology-enhanced learning platform called TARGET. However, the methodology is applicable to other domains and other technological platforms. The target audience of the resulting Stories is composed of master grade students of business administration and young professionals employed in middle management positions. The CISD2 methodology is presented in sufficient detail and detailed examples of its applications are given.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"143 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127554091","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 paper add on the ongoing discussion to develop a concept of autonomy that defines the playing field for those teams. It is argued that the concept of autonomy inheres the dimensions functional, decision making and strategy making autonomy. We provide two in-depth case studies of high-tech companies that contrast the concept of autonomy in the context of cross-functional teams that engage in new business development activities. Based on these case studies we develop a new concept of autonomy and argue that our concept defines the playing field that cross-functional teams require for developing a new business.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126407063","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}

It premises that in a user-sensitive context the important information to use is coherent with the actions made by an individual as well as by the group. The presented approach shows how to utilise the monitored user interactions with existing (knowledge management) systems in a collaborative working environment to enrich and focus the enhancement of knowledge for individuals or group of individuals. The approach focuses on the implicit and explicit knowledge gathered through a feedback system that unobtrusively monitors the active and passive knowledge. The proposed process is supported by modular services which allow docking to various systems to monitor and analyse the user's interactions and support subsequent systems through monitored data. Successful application of the proposed solutions in a real-world PDM/PLM scenario is presented.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128848938","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}

Challenges and opportunities of the approach have been discussed for several years now. The recent concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its various technologies appear to be promising possibilities to extend open innovation into other domains. Currently, experience with the creation of IoT services within open innovation environments is low. The paper contributes to the body of knowledge by introducing a Living Lab methodology for IoT service creation. The central aspect of this work is a sequence of carried out activities utilizing an IoT toolkit. Findings from first experiments with this approach identify two areas that should be considered when similar Living Labs are operated: the motivation of participants, and the role of toolkits.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"251 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114937532","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}

Using stewardship theory, we hypothesize that family firms have a high proclivity to pursue cross-functional management. We test our hypothesis in the context of patent management and find that family firms pursue higher degrees of cross-functional patent management relative to non-family firms. However, the effect only exists when the family acts as both owner and manager.","PeriodicalId":219998,"journal":{"name":"2012 18th International ICE Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121146127","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}
