15 June 2008 - 19 June 2008
Austria
IS 2008 - Systems Engineering for the Planet The 18th Annual International Symposium of the International Council on Systems Engineering provides the premier international forum for Government, Industry and Academia to learn more about Systems Engineering, and to share knowledge on the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and concerns.
"Systems Engineering for the Planet" provides the theme for paper authors to address how Systems Engineering principles and perspectives can improve the sustainability of our planet. Sustainability is concerned with achieving balanced solutions that account for the social, technological, economic, environmental, and political constraints. The theme also encourages Systems Engineers, Researchers and others to address how we can use systems, methods, processes and tools to manage resource scarcity, prevent and repair environmental damage, ensure safety and security, and resolve social imbalances. Other topics of value include technology insertion, process improvements and organizational governance of the systems we make, manage, operate and maintain over their life cycle in their respective environment -locally or globally- to the benefit of mankind.
