EXPRESSION OF INTEREST: Now! (send it to interests@ceconf.com)
------------------------------------------------------------
Now in its 9th edition, ISPE/CE2001 - Concurrent Engineering: Research and Applications, is a major forum for the international scientific exchange of multi-disciplinary and inter-organizational aspects of concurrent engineering (CE). The focus is on the research and use of integrated enterprise processes, collaborative work, interoperability and information sharing, co-locating resources, and integrated frameworks and tools. This conference addresses the state of the art in research and applications issues of CE.
Topics of Interest (http://www.ceconf.com/ce2002/topics_of_interest.htm) ------------------
Submissions are invited on substantial, original and previously unpublished research in all life-cycle areas of product design, engineering and manufacturing, including, but not limited to:
Agile Manufacturing and CE Business Process Re-engineering CE - Industrial experience CE Education and Training CE in Construction CE in Virtual Environment CE Process Design Collaboration & Training in CE Collaborative Decision-Making in CE Collaborative Product Commerce in CE Concurrent Cost Engineering Concurrent Design and Manufacture Data, Equations and Knowledge Integration for CE Design Technologies in CE Digital Product Development and CE Distributed and Agent based CE EC: Extended Enterprise and CE e-Strategy, e-Work and e-Business FE Simulation for Concurrent Design and Manufacture Frameworks for Information Sharing Interoperability in CE - Architectures and Frameworks Internet-based Modeling in CE: Knowledge Engineering and Management of CE Mobile Computing in Engineering Networking and Distribution in CE Project Management in CE Standards in CE Virtual Enterprise Engineering in CE Virtual Prototyping in CE

Invitation for Special Session, Workshop and Exhibition organization ----------------------------------------------------------
Active researchers are invited to organize Special Sessions as part of the main conference. Each session should have five very good quality papers. If you are interested to organize a session and wish to chair or co-chair sessions please contact: The Programme Chair (programme@ceconf.com).
CE2002 Workshops report very recent research in the form of a shorter paper and provides a forum for active discussion. Every workshop should have 4/5 papers. If you are interested to organize one workshop in your area of specialization, please contact the Workshop Chair: Dr. Fiona Lettice (f.lettice@cranfield.ac.uk)
The CE2002 Exhibition gives Conference delegates the chance to meet face-to-face representatives from leading CAD/PDM/IT companies. The Exhibition will explore a number of key issues, such as IT for Product Realisation, E-engineering, E-manufacturing, and E-business. To demonstrate your product or consultancy, please book a stand with: Dr. Victor Taratoukhine (v.v.taratoukhine@cranfield.ac.uk)
