BREAKTHROUGHS IN CONCURRENT ENGINEERING 2: “TRANSDISCIPLINARY ENGINEERING”

23rd ISPE Inc. International Conference on Transdisciplinary (formerly: Concurrent) Engineering. held at the Federal University of Technology, Parana, Curitiba, Brazil, October 3–7, 2016.

Theme: “Transdisciplinary Engineering: Crossing Boundaries”.

"Spreading out the term Transdisciplinary Engineering and what it is all about"

Transdisciplinary Engineering (TE) is a logical consequence of the concept of Concurrent Engineering. It more closely emphasizes the need for different disciplines to collaborate across intra- and inter-company borders.

Some papers reviewed and accepted for the 23rd ISPE Inc:

Complex Project Management

This paper describes the use of System Dynamics to help project managers conduct the management process and face uncertainties and complexities.

Managing Risks in Knowledge Exchange: Trade-Offs Interdependencies

Risks need to be managed, not only with technical means, but also with other types of methods, like contracts. In this paper, different types of interdependencies are described which influence the risks that actors may encounter. Moreover, in managing risks, different trade-offs arise, which complicate the choice of a suitable method.

Simplified Informational Design Steps for Micro Small Companies

Micro and Small Companies (MSC's) have an important role in world's economy, despite the challenges they face. One of them is the absence of adequate human resources and formal work procedures as the New Product Development Process (NPDP). This work aims to propose a simplified procedure to address informational design in MSC's.

Identification of the Main Factors That Influence the Innovation Management Performance

To maintain a long term sustainable innovation program is fundamental to the organizations analyze the organizational and process factors that influence the innovation management performance. This analysis enables the enterprises to develop sustainable models and keep the innovation process in a continuous way.

Diagnostic Techniques in Project Management.

Project management practices are critical to improve quality and success of the results. One of the main challenges for project professionals is to identify the characteristics of each project in order to choose a more suitable set of practices and tools that will contribute to greater management performance. In this article, a systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to identify studies related to diagnose techniques in the project management.

Guidelines for Development of Risk Identification Expert System for Product Design

Risk management in product design consists of a formal and systematic management process which aims to identify, analyze, treat, monitor and control risks related to their activities and tools. This article aims to provide guidelines for the development of an expert system for the risk identification phase in product design.
