Abstract
In these days of the early 21st century, systems engineering is legislated as the way the tackle the acquisition and operation of the complex systems underpinning our socio-technical society. At the same time, information and data processing is moving to countries with lower employment costs following the similar transfer of manufacturing to those same countries. Consequently, many countries are now focussing on innovation to keep their leading edge.
This practical tutorial examines focuses on systems engineering as an enabler applying systems thinking, analysis and critical thinking to the complex problems faced by those involved in the acquisition and operation of the complex systems underpinning our socio-technical society. The tutorial examines creativity, innovation and systems thinking and shows how systems thinking is also a fundamental enabler for innovative and creative solutions to most kinds of problems.
Objectives
Participants will learn about and practice systems thinking, analysis and critical thinking.
Participants will gain an understanding of ways to improve their creativity.
Participants will gain an understanding of the innovation process.
Participants will gain an understanding of the need for innovation in the marketplace.
Participants will gain an understanding of what systems engineering really is.
Audiences
Systems engineers and engineering managers.
Personnel involved in new product development.
Speaker's Biography
Joseph Kasser combines knowledge of systems engineering, technology, management and educational pedagogy. Having been a practicing systems engineer and engineering manager since 1970 in the USA, Israel, and Australia he brought a wealth of experience and a unique perspective to academia in 1997. He has since become internationally recognised as one of the top systems engineering academics in the world. He is a Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and an INCOSE Fellow. He is the author of “A Framework for Understanding Systems Engineering”, “Applying Total Quality Management to Systems Engineering” and many INCOSE symposia papers. He is a recipient of NASA’s Manned Space Flight Awareness Award (Silver Snoopy) for quality and technical excellence for performing and directing systems engineering and the recipient of many other awards, plaques and letters of commendation and appreciation. He holds a Doctor of Science in Engineering Management from The George Washington University, is a Certified Manager and a certified member of the Association for Learning Technology. He gave up his positions as a Deputy Director and DSTO Associate Research Professor at the Systems Engineering and Evaluation Centre at the University of South Australia in early 2007 to move back to the UK to develop the world’s first immersion course in systems engineering as a Leverhulme Visiting Professor at Cranfield University. He is an INCOSE Ambassador and has also served as the initial president of INCOSE Australia and as a Region VI Representative to the INCOSE Member Board. He is currently a principal at the Right Requirement Ltd. in the UK and based in Singapore as a Visiting Associate Professor at the National University of Singapore.
Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEAs) and Applications
Lam Thu Bui
Doctor : Le Quy Don Technical University, Vietnam
lam.bui07@gmail.com
Abstract
In this lecture, I will have a general overview of multi-objective optimization problems and the need to approximate the Pareto optimal solutions. A short description of evolutionary algorithms will be given during the lecture. The main part of the lecture will focus on the design of evolutionary algorithms for solving multi-objective optimization problems. Several state of the art algorithms wll also be discussed in detail. Further, design issues will be pinpointed and discussed. The lecture will be concluded with several examples of MOEAs for real-world problems.
