The Priority Given to Sustainability by Industrial Designers within an Industry 4.0 Paradigm

More Sustainability in Industry through Industrial Internet of Things?

Industrial production plays an important role for achieving a green economy and the sustainable development goals. Therefore, the nascent transformation of industrial production due to digitalization into a so-called Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is of great interest from a sustainable development point of view. This paper discusses how the environmental dimension of a sustainable develo...

The Industrial Paradigm

Managing Complexity in Industrial Collaborations Within Tool & Die Industry

Joining collaborations and maintaining relationships within these has become a major concern for managers in industrial companies. This change to a large extent arises due to the globalisation of markets and the ongoing specialisation of companies, fostered by the possibilities of information technology and datacommunication. However, such a structural change requires adaptations by companies t...

An investigation of the dual priority scheduling paradigm

Real-time computing paradigm is being pervasively deployed in many critical and non-critical applications such as aerospace and telecommunication systems. Most of these systems employ a preemptive Fixed Priority Scheduling (FPS) policy to schedule real-time tasks. Fixed priority scheduling is known for its implementation simplicity and low run-time overheads. However, FPS may not be able to use...

User-centred design for industrial designers

The association between human computer interaction methods within traditional design methods is presented in this paper. The engineering degree of industrial design and product development is composed by subjects and an international mobility program that facilitates this relationship. For this reason the role playing model is used with the aim to work with multidisciplinary teams. This paper s...
