Engineering and Technological Innovation: IMETI 2010
Engineering activities are based on the development of new Knowledge (scientia), new 'made things' (techné) and/or new ways of working and doing (praxis). Scientia, Techné and praxis are three important dimensions of a comprehensive conception of Engineering as a whole. Engineering, as Scientia, is mostly developed in academia; as techné is practiced in industry generating technological innovations; and as praxis is carried out in technical and non-technical organizations, supporting managerial activities and technical procedures, via methodical and methodological design and implementation. This is why Engineering provides one of the most solid academic and professional substrata for bridging among Universities, industries and governments.
Publications and conferences related to Engineering are usually oriented to one of its three dimensions. While this is an adequate thing to do when disciplinary focus is sought, it does not represent Engineering as a whole and it misses the very important synergic relationships among the three kinds of engineering activities mentioned above. This is why a group of scholars, professionals and consultants, in the field of engineering, considered the possibility of initiating a publishing process and organizing a conference where presentations will not be reduced to one of the Engineering's dimensions, but to foster the participation of academics, practitioners and managers in the three dimensions of Engineering, in the same conference, or in the same publication, so they can synergistically interact with each other. A consequence of this purpose is the organization of IMETI 2010, and the publication of multiple-author books series, where submissions will be accepted for the presentation of: New knowledge (Engineering as Scientia); New products and services, i.e. technological innovations (Engineering as techné); New technical and managerial methods and methodologies (Engineering as praxis); New meta-engineering (Engineering of Engineering activities) knowledge, innovations and methodologies.

This is some news about technological innovation, is very interesting... Read it,I am sure it's going to be very instructive...

But there is the Teleinformatica, so too every day each of us employs Telecommunications in personal activities and work. We always use the phone to have conversations at a distance and we are slowly integrating into a society in which the personal computer and the transfer of information play a very important development.
ResponderEliminarComputer classes at school, daily access to either high school students or college to carry out their assignments via the Internet and communicate with friends either via email or chat have been increasing in our human daily life with ease and speed.
The wireless has become more popular and unlimited opportunities to communicate from anywhere is becoming increasingly attractive in the operation of business, even now in many countries large numbers of people working from home (Telecommuting) through a new information management infrastructure, which will subsequently develop the concept of "Virtual Office".
Once the virtual user is within the office, you can access your intranet to browse virtually all the information that is useful for the development of daily activities. Virtual reality and multimedia services are increasingly involved in the culture of information visualization and understanding, giving us the opportunity to "enter" a world of "data" inside the computer and "carry" it to wherever we want.
Speech recognition in computer systems and the different services of CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) converted to the personal computer in more than a useful tool in the process information, make indispensable in managing everyday tasks in the voice, data and images, these technological advances in home and office are possible under an orderly pattern of communication without borders in digital connectivity.
All information is transmitted as data to different points on a private or public network, so you need a specific preparation for understanding these changes according to our role in developing them, as users, integrators and designers such networks.
