Book Description
Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacture (CAM) are but two of the more recent examples of computer applications in domains previously dominated by human labour. The use of computers in such areas has increasingly attracted social science research. There are several reasons one could suggest for this, not least of them being the simple fact that public money is being provided for such research. Of course, some of the interest may be due to the wish to prove that technology is being used to inhuman ends, but undoubtedly there is also some degree of fascination involved. Can you really do all the things with computers that people claim you can? There is certainly satisfaction to be had from smugly pointing out its shortcomings, but many of the few sociologists in our own organisation are also among the most avid users of modern technology. Needless to say, they also belong to the most critical users of the technology! A new strain of motivation for social science research which appears to be gaining significance, is the desire to "re-direct" technology, or at least - and probably more realistically - to playa part in shaping future technology . The entire range of motives may be recognised in the collection of papers contained in this volume.

Book Description
The emergence and adoption of computational technologies has significantly changed design and design education beyond the replacement of drawing boards with computers or pens and paper with computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer-aided engineering (CAE) applications. Computational Design Methods and Technologies: Applications in CAD, CAM and CAE Education explores state-of-the-art developments in computational design methods and their impact on contemporary design education. Readers will find case studies, empirical research findings, pedagogical theories, and reflections. Researchers, educators, designers, and developers will better understand how applying pedagogical research and reflection has influenced and will continue to transform the field in the future.

Book Description
Many books already exist on computer-aided design and manufacture most of which are dedicated to describing the complexities of mathematical modelling and its application to industrial problems. In the experience of the present authors, however, if the subject is to be understood within its true, industrial context it must be taught in relation to the design process. Thus, while this book discusses both modelling and industrial applications, it also tries to provide an insight into design methodology, system selection and usage, and the social relationships that exist within design and manufacturing facilities. The teaching modules which make up the book are the distillation of material used by the authors both for undergraduate courses in CAD at BruneI University, and for seminars given to industrial users. The modules are not intended to be used in isolation, but rather to serve as an introductory survey which will enable students to grasp the broad outlines of the subject. Most aspects ofthe course presented here will need to be supported by further work and reading (see 'Further Reading'). In the authors' own courses much of the geometric and modelling work described in the text is supported by tutorial activities using the university department's commercial and research CAD/CAM systems. These include the Computervision-CADDS4X and Personal Systems.

Book Description
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Perspectives in Business Informatics Research, BIR 2016, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in September 2016. Overall, 61 submissions from 16 countries were rigorously reviewed by 42 members of the program committee representing 21 countries. The selected 21 full papers and 3 short papers are included in this volume together with 2 abstracts of invited talks. This year again, the papers presented at the conference cover many important aspects of the development, use, and application of management information systems. The papers have been organized in topical sections on Business Processes and Enterprise Modeling; Information Systems Development; Information Systems Management; Learning and Capability; and Data Analysis.

Book Description
This volume explores the latest developments and contributions to the field of 3D bioprinting, and discusses its use for quality R&D and translation. The chapters in this book are divided into two parts: Part one covers generic themes in bioprinting to introduce novice readers to the field, while also providing experts with new and helpful information. Part two discusses protocols used to prepare, characterize, and print a variety of biomaterials, cells, and tissues. These chapters also emphasize methods used for printing defined and humanized constructs suitable for human tissue modelling in research and applicable to clinical product development. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Cutting-edge and comprehensive, 3D Bioprinting: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for researchers and bioprinting laboratories/facilities interested in learning more about this rapidly evolving technology.

Book Description
The analysis of the various components of human work is the most important approach to a systematic study of people at work. This approach is aimed at the examination of individual activities with respect to the role they play in the conflict of humanitarian, economic, and technical aspects of work. The main objective of this title, which was first published in 1989, was to bring together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia who were interested in ergonomics and psychological aspects of job analysis. This title will be of particular interest to students of human resource management.
