四、主讲专家：新加坡工程院院士、新加坡国立大学 Loon Ching TANG 教授

五、主持人：机械与电气工程学院 张小玲 教授

六、内容简介：

In this presentation, we shall present some of the actual industrial projects that I have been involved with over the past 30 years to illustrate the need to consider a few high-level concepts of operations (CONOPs) from systems design perspective before any attempt to optimize the operations of existing systems. The approach demonstrates how to leverage on the latest technologies and to challenge the existing practice so as to achieve major system improvements. It highlights the need to integrate system engineering concepts and operations research methodologies in order to result in major breakthroughs. It also further reinforce the preferred research pathway that moves from practice to theory rather than “looking for the nail after arming with a hammer”.

七、主讲人简介：

Dr Loon Ching TANG is currently professor of Department of Industrial Systems Engineering & Management at the National University of Singapore and Fellow of Academy of Engineering, Singapore. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from Cornell University in the field of Operations Research in 1992 and has published extensively in areas related to industrial engineering and operations research. He has been presented with a number of best paper awards including the IIE Transactions 2010 Best Application Paper Award and 2012 R.A. Evans/P.K. McElroy Award for the best paper at Annual RAMS. Prof Tang is the main author of the award-winning book: Six Sigma: Advanced Tools for Black Belts and Master Black Belts. Besides being active in the forefront of academic research, in the last 30 years, Prof Tang has served as a consultant for many organizations, such as the Ministry of Home Affair, Singapore Power Grid, Republic of Singapore Air Force, Seagate, HP, Phillips, etc, on a wide range of projects aiming at improving organizational and operations efficiency; especially through better management of engineering assets.
