Pharmaceuticals:
Just a Cost Factor?
Dr. Daniel Vasella
CEO, Novartis
Location:
Bartos Theater
Time: 12:00 - 1:15 pm
Description:
Recently, the Pharmaceutical Industry has
made headlines - mostly negative ones: high
prices, little innovation, patent extensions
- the list is long.
In
"Pharmaceuticals: Just a Cost Factor?"
Daniel Vasella, MD, Chairman and CEO of
Novartis AG, provides candid answers to
compelling questions: Are Americans spending
too much on healthcare and drugs, and are
prices for medicines too high? What are
we getting in return? Why is Novartis committed
to investing in research and development
of innovative drugs? Are pharmaceutical
companies really interested in helping patients
in need, or just financially driven? In
answering these questions, Dr. Vasella will
explore the business and societal context
in which the industry operates, the dynamics
of Novartis' search for novel drugs, and
the strategy that has made Novartis one
of the most successful Pharmaceutical corporations.
After
his presentation, Dr. Vasella will answer
questions from the audience.

Product Complexity Metrics for Design (a
framework)
Carlos Rodriguez-Toro, Cranfield University,
UK
Location:
E60-225
Start Time: 12:00 pm
Description:
The objective of this talk is to present
concepts of complexity in support of assembly-oriented
design, in order to guide the designer in
creating a product with the most effective
balance of manufacturing and assembly difficulty.
The goal is to provide the designer with
such information throughout the design process
so that an efficient design is produced
in the first instance.
After
a brief summary of the research background,
it presents the latest challenge in the
current project 'the Designers' Sandpit'
(The term somehow reflects the truth that
research is a form of creative play). A
research project and collaborative effort
between the Universities of Hull and Cranfield
(United Kingdom) with the intention of using
design evaluation tools such as Design for
Assembly (DFA), which have demonstrated
some success in reducing problems such as
redesign, rework and a lengthy product introduction
period.
The
above mentioned challenge is, mainly, the
need for considering and measuring complexity
in product design and its appraisal during
manufacturing analysis and process selection.
But, since definitions of the term complexity
can be found with so many variations, that
is, they are only valid within the appropriate
situation, making it nothing but an abstract
estimation that heavily depends on the context
used. An ideal interpretation is required
to compare variants of different complexities
and the formulation of metrics that can
be used in conjunction with other measures.
The final proposal is then the creation
of an environment in which complexity makes
sense, but can be measured accurately and
subjectively, conveying the whole idea of
complexity metrics and design advice at
the same time.
The
current research is still an ongoing work
that will eventually be encoded into the
projects own software, producing a framework
that will give advice to the designer as
he/she goes along in his/her task.

Fall
2003 Seminar Series
A Theory of Complexity and Applications
Professor Nam P. Suh
M.I.T.
Description:
A complexity theory for engineered systems
will be presented from the perspective of
Axiomatic Design. The complexity theory
is based on a narrow definition of complexity,
which is defined as a measure of the uncertainty
in achieving functional requirements or
objectives. Based on this definition, it
will be shown that complexity is a relative
measure of uncertainty and that there are
four types of complexity. Two of these types
are the time-independent real complexity
and the time-independent imaginary complexity.
The other two types of complexity are the
time-dependent combinatorial complexity
and the time-dependent periodic complexity.
Examples from diverse fields, including
biology, materials, and socio-economic areas
will be given to illustrate how these complexities
can be reduced by changing the design and
by introducing functional periodicity. Refreshments
will be served before the seminar.
