Chuang context of the Common European Framework Index of Authors 393 206 2007 Vol.6, No.2 World Transactions on Engineering and Technology Education Editorial This regular Issue of the World Transactions on Engineering & Technology Education (WTE&TE), designated as Vol.6, No.2, includes 37 research and development articles submitted by authors representing 17 countries worldwide. The authors of these articles strive to present the current status of engineering and technology education, and the contemporary tendencies in research and development carried out in this particular area of academic endeavour. In completing this sixth Volume of the WTE&TE, we have been impressed by the variety of topics, issues and ideas presented by the authors of the articles included in this Volume. Particular emphasis is being placed on research, development and promotional activities concerning the application of modern technologies in the teaching/learning process. Also, considerable interest is being noted in the problem and project-based methods more often used in engineering and technology education, which facilitate the student-centred approach to education. Under the editorial policy of the Journal, we also endeavour to promote a broad scope of articles, tackling such issues and problems as new and critical developments in science, the application of the Internet for the search, storage and retrieval of information, the impact of new technological advances on societies, the development and cultivation of engineering and technology teachers, and others. This is in order to facilitate the preparation of high school students for their future ventures with modern technologies and production processes. We are, indeed, proud and honoured by the fact that we have been able to establish and maintain the WTE&TE as an important source of information through which recent research, development and promotion of academic achievements can be documented, presented and transmitted to a broad international audience. Hence, the Journal’s specific editorial policy is that the submitted articles have to undergo a strict and rigorous refereeing process in order to ensure the highest possible outcome. Further, we are delighted by the fact that we have been able to attract so many exceptional engineering and technology experts to the Journal’s Editorial Board, whose task is to assess the articles submitted to the Journal. I wish to express our sincere gratitude to the following senior academics, members of the UICEE Global Family of Engineering Educators, who have refereed the articles included in this Issue: • Prof. Tuncay Birand, Middle East Technical University,

  • Gottlob Frege Centre for Engineering Science and Design (GFC)
    Global J. of Engng. Educ., Vol.8, No.1 © 2004 UICEE Published in Australia Gottlob Frege Centre for Engineering Science and Design (GFC) Norbert Grünwald Dieter Schott Hochschule Wismar - University of Technology, Business and Design Philipp-Müller-Str., D-23952 Wismar, Germany A broad knowledge in mathematics and other basic sciences is crucial for an individual’s life-long ability to conduct creative work, as well as for an innovative and competitive society. However, in contrast to this, many teachers, professors and industrial representatives deplore the lack of mathematics and science knowledge of those who are starting out in study and employment. These findings are fully supported by international scientific studies. As a reaction to this undesirable development, and in recognition of the merits of Gottlob Frege, a famous German mathematician, philosopher and logician, the Gottlob-Frege-Centre (GFC) was founded in November 2000 at Hochschule Wismar by a group of 12 professors responsible for education in the basic sciences at the University. Since its foundation, many activities have been launched regionally and worldwide. The highlight was the Memorandum of Agreement between the UICEE and Hochschule Wismar, which was signed in June 2001. Since then, Hochschule Wismar has become a Partner of the UICEE and the GFC was raised to the status of a satellite centre of UICEE, with the aim to develop the centre through international cooperation, and to contribute to the competences in the UICEE’s Global Family of Engineering Educators. GFC members bring into play an application- oriented basic science education for engineering students, which is much more up-to-date, attractive and international in its orientation.

  • Client-Server and Gateway Systems for Remote Control in Engineering Education*
    Global J. of Engng. Educ., Vol.7, No.2 © 2003 UICEE Published in Australia Client-Server and Gateway Systems for Remote Control in Engineering Education* Hartmut Ewald Fachbereich Elektrotechnik und Informationstechnik, Rostock University Albert Einstein Straße 2, D-18051 Rostock, Germany George F. Page School of Engineering, Liverpool John Moores University Byrom Street, Liverpool, L3 3AF, England, United Kingdom With the rapid development of the Internet over recent years, in conjunction with the transmission protocol TCP/IP and the latest version of hypertext (HTML) facilities, new opportunities have come into existence for the use of the network for the remote control of experiments and other practical systems in engineering education. There are two prime benefits: students learn how network systems work and also how remote control technologies operate and the universities save money when students from several institutions utilise the same expensive equipment. Using graphical software environments in client-server systems can be easily designed. Client-server systems have some general advantages when compared with simple Remote-Access Systems (RAS) or proprietary (single-solution) systems. In recent years, gateway systems for remote control have become available for most measurement and instrumentation bus systems and this effectively permits direct access via LAN/Internet with a minimum of the transfer data-rates needed for control. INTRODUCTION Internet for remote control. It is now possible to design http-based client-server solutions and gateway The remote control of installations and systems has systems for remote control problems with modest been a technical reality in research laboratories and expenditure with the aid of graphical software automated industries for many years, particularly in development packages, such as LabVIEW [1][2] or process control industries.

Tasks including human-machine interaction (HMI) are increasingly integrated into the work process. The work ranges of robots and operators in manual assembly and maintenance are progressively fusing – the coexistence will move towards human-robot collaboration (HRC). Consequently, the higher dynamics of processes in the digitized industry include additional stress factors and offers new challenges: HMI can result in cognitive overload of the worker due to the interpretation of multiple signals and therefore lead to a high risk of exhaustion. Furthermore, there are strong barriers to working with a robot colleague. To increase the acceptance of HRC and to reduce the strain of the worker, user-centered needs have to be sufficiently considered. However, workplaces for HMI are widely developed from a technology-centric perspective. The design research will close this gap by developing a novel holistic method for the design of industrial workplaces. Accordingly, the study places great emphasis on understanding of human factors in terms of its physical, cognitive and organizational limitations and their applications to industrial design.
