List of Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

Development of Mechatronic Products and Systems

Agenda:
• Consolidation of research in Mechatronics among internationally active research groups
• Definition of key areas of interest and action recommendation for further research
• Fruitful exchange of knowledge and experiences between researchers, students and industry partners
• Exchanging education concepts and teaching experiences in the growing area of mechatronic student programs

Focus:
Mechatronics - the synergetic integration of different engineering domains such as mechanics, electronics and information technology can create new products and stimulate innovative solutions. Due to the interaction of domains the complexity of mechatronic products is usually very high.
Therefore mechatronics faces two main challenges:
1. complexity,
2. multidisciplinarity.
The SIG "Development of Mechatronic Products and Systems" encourage the discussion on
1. how to manage complexity in mechatronic-specific design,
2. how to support the designer in communication among multidisciplinary design teams.
Our specific research areas are as follows:
- Self-optimizing and cognitive systems,
- automated design,
- Approaches to handle complexity,
- Procedures and tools to support engineers communication.
