Preface
The globalisation of markets and the expansion of product responsibility into the
entire product life cycle lead to an increasing competitive situation for nationally
and internationally operating companies. Therefore, to win this competition the use
of the most effective and efficient resources regarding the whole product life cycle
is necessary.
Since these resources are globally distributed the different tasks both within a phase
of product life cycle and those spread over different phases are distributed as well.
The global interference of these tasks requires a close multilateral co-operation of
the companies concerned. Current information- and communication technologies
and modern management concepts offer high potentials to meet these requirements.
The international seminar of CIRP on Life Cycle Engineering titled "Life Cycle
Networks" was a forum for the presentation and discussion of current research
work and recent advancements on these strategic issues for current and future
engineering. Complex requirements and innovative solutions to support and realise
Life Cycle Networks has been revealed and summerised.
The employment of information technology to support both specific phases of
product life cycle and holistic approaches will be the main focus. This volume
contains the papers presented at the seminar which provide opportunities to identify
the state-of-the-art and address future needs.
The parts in this volume correspond to the sessions of the seminar and are
presented under the following headings:
Life Cycle Management;
Life Cycle Design;
Design for Environment;
Design for Recycling;
Life Cycle Assessment;
Disassembly;
IT-Networks.
A large number of papers was submitted for consideration. Members of the
International Programme Committee worked assiduously to select appropriate
papers. Thanks are due to them.
Furthermore, we express our thanks to the members of the local organisation
committee for their efforts as well as to the officials of CIRP for their support,
which helped to make this seminar possible.
