Manufacturing industry has been one of the key drivers for recent
rapid global economic development. Globalisation of manufacturing
industries due to distributed design and labour advantage leads to
a drive and thirst for technological advancements and expertise in
the fields of advanced design and manufacturing. This development
results in many economical benefits to and improvement of quality
of life for many people all over the world. This rapid development
also creates many opportunities and challenges for both
industrialists and academics, as the design requirements and
constraints have completely changed in this global design and
manufacture environment. Consequently the way to design,
manufacture and realise products have changed as well. More and
more design and manufacture tasks can now be undertaken within
computer environment using simulation and virtual reality
technologies. These technological advancements hence support more
advanced product development and manufacturing operations in such a
global design and manufacturing environment. In this global context
and scenario, both industry and the academia have an urgent need to
equip themselves with the latest knowledge, technology and methods
developed for engineering design and manufacture.
With collaborative product development in a geographically
distributed environment and global outsourcing becoming normal for
many companies, it is imperative to bring academics, researchers
and industrialists together to share research ideas and best
practice. The European-Asia Symposium on Engineering Design and
Manufacture (EASED 2004) provides such a platform and aims to
increase the exchange of ideas and best practice among
practitioners and researchers from two major global regions -
Europe and Asia. As the manufacturing activities, associated with
the design activities in European, American and Japan, are being
transferred to Asia, it is timely to organise this International
Symposium. The Symposium brings together research experts and
industrialists to focus on the issues related to these global
changes. This geographical distribution of tasks involved in the
whole engineering product realisation process brings great
challenge as well as huge benefits. This Symposium provides a
platform for academic researchers and industrial practitioners to
exchange ideas used to address the challenges presented by this new
global economic development. This book presents 75 papers from 185
accepted refereed papers presented at EASED2004.
