讲座题目：Measurement and Control as a Significant Driving Force in Modern Industrial Technology讲座摘要：

The industrial application of measurement and instrumentation is rapidly growing, driven by the capabilities of instrument technology, by the development of other technologies, and by social and economic demands. Most areas of technology rely to a substantial extent on instrumentation and could not function effectively without it. Instrumentation is the key enabler of modern manufacturing, through automation, which enhances productivity and ensures consistent quality. The demand for improved and assured quality means ever better instrumentation. An important growing point is the integration of sensors, information processing, actuators, and control systems into products such as robots in the manufacturing environment.

The acquisition, processing, and effectuation of information from the manufacturing environment have perspectives on innovation. Innovation is not merely discovery and invention, but rather, it is the whole process of converting ideas into a product that is successful in the market.

This is an interdisciplinary project in essence: it will bring together a team of researchers from computer science, computational science, electrical and computer engineering, industrial, manufacturing, and systems engineering, who are fully qualified and have substantial prior results to support the promise of the proposed approach, hence mitigating the risks of implementation.
