March
31, 2004 – Day 3
This
day is focused primarily for researchers,
although all participants are invited
to attend. Submitted papers will be presented
in parallel sessions. Over 50 abstracts
have been submitted. The Call for Papers
placed an emphasis on the areas of research
on foundational issues, such as complexity,
flexibility, uncertainty, emergence, and
system architecture, and their relevance
to large-scale engineering systems. In
addition, papers were sought on system
safety, security, and sustainability,
engineering systems domains (e.g., transportation,
energy, communications, aerospace) as
well as contextual considerations (social,
political, economic and institutional
factors). Papers on educational programs
in Engineering Systems were also requested.
Abstracts of submitted papers are currently
being evaluated. To view the program for
Day 3, click here.
Day
3 will be held at the Cambridge
Marriott, 2 Cambridge Center (Broadway
& 3rd Street), Cambridge, MA 02142.
Rooms to be assigned.
