ENGINEERING ACTIVITY FROM THE CONSTRUCTIVE VIEWPOINT

Vladimir Kutergin, PhD in Engineering, professor, Ural branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Applied mechanics Institute

Abstract

How could one define an artificial object? What differs it from a natural object? What’s the nature of a final-product and engineering activity as an artificially created phenomenon? Is it possible to describe in common mathematical language the phenomenon of an object construction or process with the fixed parameters, despite a variety of displays? What kinds of models and constructive processes are suitable for studying the laws and principles of artificial objects organization and management? The present work attempts to answer the above-mentioned questions by analyzing the engineering challenges and problems using “search of unity in complex” approach.

KEYWORDS: engineering, constructive process, artificial object, variability, invariants, structure of communications, result of communications, goal-directed activity, model of consuming future, systems design.

Abstract

“Models and methods of social and economic system’s management based on the physically definable sizes” project creation history is presented. The results were supposed to be used for various defense function systems’ efficiency evaluation, in order to define by means of these methods final efficiency of full set of projected and introduced systems’ performance. The project is not finished; the results achieved are handed over to archive. P.G.Kuznetsov’s concept about objective law existence for large-scale systems development expressed in physically definable sizes is being developed at present, in times of world crisis, when such approaches become relevant.

KEYWORDS: large-scale systems, physically definable size, models and management methods, projected systems’ efficiency, objective law of development

THE METHODOLOGICAL CARACTERISTICS OF THE INNOVATION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX MANAGEMENT

Valentina Timofeeva, PhD in Engineering, Professor of Kalinigradsky Institute of Tourism (branch of Russian International Academy of Tourism), Management and hospitality department,, Kaliningrad

Abstract

Constantly changing society should have adequate dynamical education that can be defined by concept of continuous education. People who should learn to study and at the same time ready for reeducation are required. It is essential that the educational system “encouraged” in students and experts self-development approach. The project method at which the developing educational environment triggering creative processes in all the participants of an educational situation, including the teacher is presented. Student’s or expert’s independent work and self-managing of educational activity becomes the first priorities.

KEYWORDS: educational process, continuous education, project activity, the concept of competence, self-checking and self-estimation, reflection, targeting, risks control, modelling, teamwork.
