FINAL PROGRAM

ALOHA WAC 2014!

It is my distinct pleasure to welcome each and every one of you to 10th biennial WAC --- World Automation Congress

2014. The plans for this congress began back in 2012 when it was decided to go back to Hawaii. WAC 2014 is

dedicated to WAC founder Mo Jamshidi of the University of Texas, San Antonio for his “outstanding career of seminal

contributions to modeling, optimization and control of complex systems engineering, systems-of systems; and for

pioneering innovations in minority engineering education"; and to Asad M. Madni of BEI Technologies Inc. and

UCLA for his “extraordinary career of enlightened and visionary leadership in and pioneering contributions to the

development and commercialization of intelligent sensors, systems and instrumentation" On behalf of WAC family,

I would like to express my great appreciation to Professor Mo Jamshidi for his longtime efforts and a wonderful job

in WAC1994-2014. Thank you again, Mo.

WAC 2014 begun by soliciting technical contributions and attracted over 160 full papers, including many special

session proposals. The program committees of the five tracks of WAC sent all the papers, unsolicited and solicited

ones, to 2 to 3 reviewers each in a span of 12 weeks on EDAS system. Over 400 individual reviews were reported to

the track chairs and WAC Secretariat in USA. The program that you are witnessing here is the result of diligent and

professional work of many wonderful volunteers to help run this international congress. On the top of that list are our

five track Chairs: Syoji Kobashi (Multimedia, bio-medicine and image processing), Kazuo Kiguchi (Robotics),

Bahram Shafai (Automation and Control), Ricardo Valerdi, Bernadetta Kwintiana Ane, and Michael

Packianather (Systems Engineering and Manufacturing), and last but not least to Alireza Sadeghian (Soft

computing).

On behalf of the track chairs, we wish to sincerely thank hundreds of our peers who took their valuable times to review

the WAC 2014 papers. We hope that this congress will provide you not only a beautiful and scenic venue like the

Waikoloa Village on the Big Island of Hawaii, but a very rewarding technical exchange of ideas and interests.

WAC 2014 is proud to have a very distinguished group of keynote speakers and Lifetime Achievement Speakers:

Delbert Tesar, and Kazuo Kiguchi. We also wish to thank Panelists on Technobiology: Developing and Applying

Technology to Biomedical Issues and Concerns, including Jim Tien from John Floyd, Michael Heckman, Kazuo

Kiguchi, Bijan Tadayon, Saeid Tadayon, Delbert Tesar, Takeshi Yamakawa, and Hiroshi Nakajima.

Asides from the keynote speeches and a parallel session, we will celebrate the lifetime achievements of 4 individuals

in automation and/or soft computing: Professors Delbert Tesar (USA), Kazuo Kiguchi (Japan), Rafik Aliev

(Azerbaijan) and Janusz Kacprzyk (Poland), as it is a common practice in biennial WAC meetings. Many others

have spent numerous hours helping to bring this wonderful meeting to you. I wish to thank Aly El-Osery, and Ted

Shaneyfelt National Organizing Co-Chairs. Aly and Jeff Prevost will co-edit a Springer Verlag Book based on Career

of Prof. Mo Jamshidi and his 120 former students. I like to thank many of Prof. Jamshidi’s students who have done a

remarkable work in planning and organizing the congress. Among them are Ramin and Amin Sahba, Patrick

Next Generation Systems-on-Chip for Communication, Radar, Interconnect and Imaging Systems

Mau-Chung Frank Chang, UCLA, USA


ABSTRACT: There is an increasing interest in recent time to explore mm-Wave and Sub-mm-Wave (Terahertz)

systems from 60-1000GHz (i.e. 1 Terahertz) for radio, radar and imaging systems due to unique quasi-optical

characteristics of such wave spectra. In the meantime, the continuous scaling has made modern CMOS with gate

dimensions less than 50 nm a strong contender with improved device speed (cut-off frequencies ft and fmax >500GHz)

and superior System-on-a-Chip integration. Nevertheless, deep-scaled CMOS suffers its own disadvantages from

limited linearity/dynamic range, low intrinsic gain, high process variation and excessive substrate loss. In this talk, we

will discuss various algorithms and techniques developed at UCLA to overcome CMOS technology drawback in order

for implementing highly integrated and portable radio/radar/imager systems with unprecedented spectra coverage,

energy efficiency and cost/size-effectiveness.

Biography: Dr. Frank Chang is the Wintek Endowed Chair and Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering

and the Chairman of the Electrical Engineering Department, UCLA.

Before joining UCLA, he was the Assistant Director and Department Manager of the High Speed Electronics

Laboratory at Rockwell Science Center (1983-1997), Thousand Oaks, California. In this tenure, he developed and

transferred the AlGaAs/GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) and BiFET (Planar HBT/MESFET) integrated

circuit technologies from the research laboratory to the production line (now Conexant Systems and Skyworks). The

HBT/BiFET productions have grown into multi-billion dollar businesses and dominated the cell phone power

amplifiers and front-end module markets (currently exceeding 10 billion units/year and exceeding 50 billion units in

the last decade). Throughout his career, his research has primarily focused on the development of high-speed

semiconductor devices and integrated circuits for RF and mixed-signal communication and imaging system

applications. He was the principal investigator at Rockwell in leading DARPA's ultra-high speed ADC/DAC

development for direct conversion transceiver (DCT) and digital radar receivers (DRR) systems. He was the inventor

of the multiband, reconfigurable RF-Interconnects for Chip-Multi-Processor (CMP) inter-core communications and

inter-CPU/Memory communications. He also developed world's first multi-gigabit/sec ADC, DAC and DDS in both

GaAs HBT and Si CMOS technologies. He was the 1st to demonstrate a CMOS active imager at sub-mm-Wave

(180GHz) based on a Time-Encoded Digital Regenerative Receiver. He pioneered the development of self-healing

57-64GHz radio-on-a-chip (DARPA's HEALICS program) with embedded sensors, actuators and self-

diagnosis/curing capabilities; and ultra low phase noise VCO (F.O.M.<-200dBc/Hz) with invented Digitally

Controlled Artificial Dielectric (DiCAD) embedded in CMOS technologies. He also pushed CMOS oscillators into

Terahertz operation (1.3THz) and devised the first tri-color CMOS active imager at sub-mm-Wave frequencies (180-

500GHz) based on a Time-Encoded Digital Regenerative Receiver and the first 3-dimensional SAR imaging radar

with <0.7cm range resolution at 144GHz.

6

He is an academician of Academic Sinica, Taiwan, Republic China and a member of the US National Academy of

Engineering. He is also a Fellow of IEEE and received IEEE David Sarnoff Award in 2006 for developing and

commercializing HBT power amplifiers for modern wireless communication systems. He was the recipient of 2008

Pan Wen Yuan Foundation Award and 2009 CESASC Career Achievement Award for fundamental contributions in

developing AlGaAs/GaAs hetero-junction bipolar transistors. He received Rockwell's Leonardo Da Vinci Award

(Engineer of the Year) in 1992; National Chiao Tung University's Distinguished Alumnus Award in 1997; and

National Tsing Hua University's Distinguished Engineering Alumnus Award in 2002.

He has founded or co-founded several companies in both US and Taiwan, including a Fabless RF-Chip Design House

G-Plus (acquired by SST in 2004 and renamed as SST Communications), a GaAs Foundry GCS (Global

Semiconductor Company) in Torrance, California and a GaAs HBT Foundry GCTC (merged with Win Semiconductor

and went public in Taiwan's Stock Exchange). He recently spun-off a high data rate (6Gbps) Near-Field-

Communication Company (Waveconnex), invested by Intel Capital and ALP Venture Capitals. He also serves as an

independent Board Director at Taiwan's Wintek Corp. (one of world's largest Touch Panel Display vendors).

Dr. Frank Chang earned his B.S. in Physics from National Taiwan University in 1972, his M.S. in Materials Science

from National Tsing Hua University in 1974, and his Ph.D. in Electronics Engineering from National Chiao Tung

University in 1979.

10:00-11:00 AM

Modelling and Control of an Interactive 3D Programmable Surface

Saeid Nahavandi, Deakin University, Australia

Chair: Ricardo Valerdi, USA

ABSTRACT: Being able to create a highly programmable surface operating at relatively high speed and in real-time

is an area of research with many challenges. This presentation will focus on design, modeling, simulation and control

of a highly interactive programmable surface created within the CISR. The system is comprised of thousands of

pneumatic cylinders controlled simultaneously in real-time to create a highly responsive surface. The generated

patters on the surface can come from a variety of input sources such as cameras, motion detectors, multi-input sound

channels, etc. The surface can function alternately as a tactile mirror and an information surface with the possibility

of lending itself to a wide range of applications.

Bio: Dr. Saeid Nahavandi received his BSc (Hons), MSc and PhD in Control Engineering from Durham University,

UK in 1985, 1986 and 1991 respectively. Saeid is an Alfred Deakin Professor and the Director for the Centre for

Intelligent Systems Research at Deakin University in Australia.

Professor Nahavandi is a Fellow member of IET, IEAust and Senior Member of IEEE and has published over 450

refereed papers and been awarded several competitive Australian Research Council (ARC) grants over the past five

years. He received the Research collaboration / initiatives award from Japan (2000) and Prince and Princess of Wales

Science Award in 1994. He won the title of Young Engineer of the Year Award in 1996 and holds two patents. In

2002 Professor Nahavandi served as a consultant to the Jet Propulsion Lab (NASA) during his visit to JPL Labs. In

2006 he received the title of Alfred Deakin Professor, the highest honour at Deakin University for his contribution to

fundamental research. Professor Nahavandi is the founder of the Centre for Intelligent Systems Research with 60 full

time researchers at Deakin University. In modelling and simulation of complex systems he has received awards from

several organizations to focus on simulations based optimization of manufacturing processes, airport operations,

logistics and distribution centers.

Lifetime Achievement Lecture

11:20 AM – 12:20 PM

Overview of the Next Wave of Technology

Delbert Tesar

University of Texas, USA

Chair: Mo Jamshidi, USA

ABSTRACT: This work is now documented in 24 Major Program plans (1900 pages) for open architecture systems

for the operation of aircraft, submarines, orthotics, wind turbines, light and heavy commercial vehicles, freight trains,

vertical take-off and landing aircraft, educational robots, space and battlefield robots, etc. This in its entirety forms

the basis for the next wave of technology with emphasis on intelligence at all levels and a balance between the

electrical and mechanical technologies. The primary component in achieving an open architecture for all these systems

is the intelligent actuator (the correct level of granularity for these systems, as the chip is to electronic systems). Recent

7

emphasis has been on open architecture vehicles with concentration on a multi-speed hub drive wheel in order to

remove all passive mechanical drives, improve traction by 3x, reduce drive losses by 2x, reduce vehicle cost by 2x

and substantially improve safety for on/off-road operation. Further development will involve active steering, camber,

and suspension at each wheel.

Bio: Teaching in mechanical engineering began in 1957 with early research interest in mechanism synthesis and

modeling. In 1965, work began on robotics with emphasis on open architecture and a generalized criteria-based

decision making structure to plan and carry out the motion of robot manipulators. In 1975, work began on intelligent

actuators for robotics as standardized driving modules (as the chip is for computers, electronics, and social media).

That tech base has grown by 8 orders of magnitude in the decades of 1990-2010. The concentration is for actuator

intelligence (response to human command) and for design in a minimum set for a

given domain to permit in-depth certification and to maximize performance to cost ratios. System intelligence is

achieved by developing multiple decision criteria (for a given domain) with clear physical meaning enabling decision

updates of 5 to 10 msec., even for quite complex systems.

Thus far, 68 Ph.D’s and 164 M.Sc. students have graduated. Five companies have been created and four of these Ph.D.

graduates have been recognized as distinguished graduates from their universities. Participation has occurred on three

major national science boards, (the Air Force Science Advisory Board, the Space Station Review Panel, and the Army

Science Board). Research funding now exceeds $35,000,000, with increasing emphasis on industrial priorities. This

work has produced 120 position papers, 240 major reports, 244 journal/conference papers and 675 invited lectures. It

has been possible to make invited presentations throughout the technical world (Europe, Russia, Japan, Korea, China,

etc.) and to enjoy continued interface to many outstanding groups. A common awareness exists to revitalize the

discipline of mechanical engineering and to raise it up to be a strong partner of the electrical and computer science

disciplines.

Design and Control of Human Assist Robots

Kazuo Kiguchi

Kyushu University, Japan

Chair: Syoji Kobashi, Japan

ABSTRACT: Human assist robots are expected to play an important role to enrich human daily life in these days.

Especially, power-assist robots or robotic artificial limbs are used to assist daily activities of physically weak persons

or disabled persons. However, there are several difficulties to design those robots since they must be attached to a

human body. Furthermore, although those robotic systems must be activated based on the user’s motion intention, it

is not easy to estimate that in real-time. Therefore, many studies have been carried out to control the human assist

robot based on the user’s motion intention. User’s biological signals such as EMG (Electromyogram) and EEG

(Electroencephalogram) are important signals to understand the user’s motion intention. The motion intention can be

directly estimated with the EMG in real time since the EMG directly reflects the muscle activity level. However, it is

sometimes difficult to obtain the EMG from paralyzed persons or amputees. On the other hand, EEG can be obtained

even from the paralyzed persons or amputees, although it does not correlate with the motion intention directly.

In the presentation, design of power-assist robots and robotic artificial limbs is discussed. Several methods which are

used to extract the user’s motion intention from the EMG or EEG of the user are explained to activate the power-assist

robots or the robotic artificial limbs in real-time. Furthermore, the latest studies on the human assist robots are

discussed.

System of Systems Principles and Modeling – Case for “Big Data” Analytics in Smart

Energy Grids

Mo Jamshidi, PhD.

The University of Texas at San Antonio, USA


ABSTRACT: Large data has been accumulating in all aspects of our lives for quite some time. Advances in sensor

technology, the Internet, wireless communication, and inexpensive memory have all contributed to an explosion of

“Big Data”. System of Systems (SoS) are integration of independent operatable and non-homogeneous legacy systems

to achieve a higher goal than the sum of the parts. Today’s SoS are also contributing to the existence of unmanageable

“Big Data”. Recent efforts have developed promising approach, called “Data Analytics”, which uses statistical and

soft computing (SC) tools such as principal component analysis (PCA), clustering, fuzzy logic, neuro-computing,

evolutionary computation, Bayesian networks, etc. to reduce the size of “Big Data” to a manageable size and apply

these tools to a) extract information, b) build a knowledge base using the derived data, and c) eventually develop a

non-parametric model for the “Big Data”. This keynote attempts to construct a bridge between SoS and Data Analytics

15

to develop reliable models for such systems. A photovoltaic energy forecasting problem of a micro grid SoS will be

offered here for a case study of this modeling relation. A consortium of tools from soft computing and statistics: PCA,

Clustering, Data Mining, Pattern Recognition via Fuzzy Logic, Neuro-computing, and Post-Processing via

Evolutionary Computations are used to extract a nonlinear MODEL for a SoS-generated BIG DATA.

ABSTRACT: There are numerous “Grand Challenges” facing humanity that will have to be addressed by us as a

global society in order to maintain our well-being from the standpoint of quality of life, healthcare, environment,

energy needs, manufacturing efficiencies, etc., if we are to continue humanity’s trajectory of progress. Traditional

techniques based on classical disciplines and thought processes of the past several decades are no longer viable in

addressing these challenges, and a new approach based on interdisciplinary thinking is necessary. Fortunately,

numerous emerging technologies are advancing at an unimaginable rate and it is the convergence of these technologies

that demonstrate the potential to have a major impact on our lives, businesses, government, society and our planet.

These emerging technologies are establishing the basis for a new paradigm in the development and commercialization

of next generation intelligent, miniaturized, highly robust complex systems. This lecture will address some of these

major technologies and their applications including, intelligent sensors and wireless sensor networks, intelligent cars

and smart highways, tele-health (wireless healthcare), micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), nanotechnology,

clean technology, robotics and automation, smart grid, and ultra-high throughput and wide bandwidth instrumentation.

Bio: Dr. Asad Madni served as President, COO & CTO of BEI Technologies Inc. from 1992 until his retirement in

2006. He led the development & commercialization of intelligent micro-sensors, systems, and instrumentation for

which he has received worldwide acclaim. Prior to BEI he was with Systron Donner Corporation for 18 years in senior

technical & executive positions, eventually as Chairman, President & CEO. Here, he made seminal and pioneering

contributions in the development of RF & Microwave Systems & Instrumentation which significantly enhanced the

capabilities of the US Tri-Services. He is currently, Distinguished Adjunct Professor/Distinguished Scientist at UCLA,

Distinguished Professor at TCI College of Technology, Adjunct Professor at Ryerson University, and Executive

Managing Director & CTO of Crocker Capital.

He received an A.A.S. from RCA Institutes Inc., B.S. & M.S. from UCLA, Ph.D. from California Coast University,

D.Sc. (H) from Ryerson University, D.Eng. (H) from Technical University of Crete, and Sc.D. (H) from California

The Bees Algorithm – An Effective Nature-Inspired Optimisation Tool

Duc Truong Pham, The University of Birmingham, UK


ABSTRACT: Many real-world engineering problems require the manipulation of a number of system variables in

order to optimise a given quality parameter such as the reliability or accuracy of a process, or the cost or performance

of a product. Optimisation will become even more important as resources diminish. When the number of variables

is large, it can be difficult to locate the optimal solution. The Bees Algorithm models the foraging behaviour of a

swarm of honeybees in order to solve complex optimisation problems. The algorithm performs a combination of

exploitative neighbourhood search and random explorative search. In this presentation, we will explain different

formulations of the Bees Algorithm and compare it against other biologically inspired search methods. We will review

applications of the Bees Algorithm in engineering and manufacture and demonstrate its effectiveness at finding

solutions to multi-modal optimisation problems.

Bio: Duc Truong Pham is Head of the School of Mechanical Engineering and Chance Professor of Engineering at

WAC 2014 PANEL SESSION

TechnoBiology: Engineering Technologies Serving Medicine and Related Concerns

Chair: James M. Tien, Ph.D., NAE, Dean of Engineering, University of Miami, USA

1. John Floyd, MD, Neurosurgeon, University of Texas Health Sciences Center, San Antonio, USA.

A Dual Phase 1/2, Investigator Initiated Study to Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose, Safety,

and Efficacy of Rhenium Nanoliposomes (186RNL) in Recurrent Glioblastoma. At the University of

Texas Health Science Center San Antonio (UTHCSA) and Cancer Treatment and Research Center

(CTRC), The Department of Neurological Surgery, Radiology and Oncology teamed together to develop

a de novo therapy for patients with malignant brain tumors utilizing engineered nanoparticles, a novel

radio-nucleotide, and state of the art convection flow catheters implanted into the tumor using the latest

neurosurgical techniques.

2. Kazuo Kiguchi, Ph.D., Kyushu University, Japan.

Developing and Applying Technology to Human Assist Systems. Human assist systems such as

power-assist robots are expected to play an important role to enrich human daily life in these days. The

latest technology on the human assist systems for physically weak persons is presented. The concept of

perception-assist is also introduced in the presentation.

3. Delbert Tesar, Ph.D., University of Texas, Austin, USA.

Marriage of Man and Machine The goal is to maximize human performance under a very wide range

of conditions and functions in conjunction with ever-increasing intelligence in Electro-Mechanical

Systems (EMS). This would be accomplished by improving the mutual awareness (performance

maps/envelopes) of the man and machine to enable short-term (actions) and long-term (mission plans)

functions to be carried out with minimum uncertainty relative to the available resources and the desired

objective.

4. Takeshi Yamakawa, Ph.D., Fuzzy Logic Systems Institute, Japan, and Dr. Hiroshi Nakajima,

OMRON. Japan

Important Point for Engineers in the Biomedical Engineering Research (Yamakawa)

The presenter drew up and led the national project which includes engineers and neurosurgical doctors

engaging in epilepsy. Our target of research was to develop the minimally invasive surgical tools to

inactivate the epileptogenic focus. It was successful for monkeys, thus successful from the viewpoint

of engineering, but it was not successful from the viewpoint of medical science, because it could not be

developed to human beings because of the budget. Therefore we have to make a plan including clinical

research considering research deadline and budgets.

The importance of daily measurements and personalized feedbacks (Nakajima)

It has been urgently required to prevent lifestyle related diseases such as obesity, hypertension, and diabetes

in all over the world. Because of their name and causes, lifestyle modification should be the primary treatment

which should be continuously supported. Daily measurements of lifestyles and vitals will provide rich and

important information for taking care of them.

5. James M. Tien, Ph.D., University of Miami, USA.

On Technobiology: A New Frontier for Engineering. Engineering has and will continue to have a

critical impact on healthcare; the application of technology-based techniques to biological problems can

be defined as technobiology. More importantly, nearly every discipline in engineering -- from industrial

engineering to solid state electronics – has potential technobiology applications, including a system-of-

systems approach to healthcare, vital sign sensors, imaging, tissue printing, and DNA sequencing. In

short, technobiology can be considered to be a challenging new frontier for engineering.

6. Bijan Tadayon, Ph.D., J.D., Z-Advance Computing, USA.

IP/Patent Issues for Biological/Biotech Research and Products. We will present some examples.

The patentability of biological products is discussed. It is an extremely difficult problem, and nobody

has the complete picture and correct answer, yet. People are polarized on this issue. It is also an evolving

field. For example: Who owns the IPs? Is the monopoly for critical medicine right? What is the public

policy? What other countries think about these issues? The economic aspect of the field is discussed.

Does the size of a company matter more in this field, for competition in the market, research funding,

and IP protection?

7. Saeid Tadayon, Ph.D., J. D., Z-Advance Computing, USA.

IP/Patent Issues for Medical Diagnosis, Surgical Methods, Medical Devices, and Procedures. We

will present some examples. The patentability of the products is discussed. In particular, we discuss

the medical treatment methods. Some of the problems with this field are discussed.

Systems Thinking Interventions: Do They Make a Difference?

Ricardo Valerdi, University of Arizona, USA

Chair: Ted Shaneyfelt, USA

ABSTRACT: Competence in systems thinking is implicitly assumed among engineers and managers – in fact, most

people will claim to be systems thinkers. But this competence is not as prevalent as these assertions might lead one to

assume. This keynote provides a set of systems thinking competencies and demonstrates how these are not as common

as advertised. We also discuss how these competencies can be measured. Our main thesis is that systems thinking is

not a natural act because evolution has favored mechanisms tuned to dealing with immediate surface features of

problems.

We discuss the implications through a discussion of the efficacy of systems thinking interventions. Empirical

evidence for the impact of systems thinking is provided in the context of schoolchildren in South America,

undergraduate students at the University of Arizona, graduate students at MIT, and business managers in Australia.

Bio: Dr. Ricardo Valerdi is an Associate Professor at the University of Arizona in the department of Systems and

Industrial Engineering. Previously he was a Research Associate in the Engineering Systems Division at the

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research focuses on improving our understanding of complex systems –

both technical and social – by building sophisticated models. His research has been funded by Army, Navy, Air Force,

BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, the IBM Center for the Business of Government, and the Arizona

Diamondbacks (MLB).

Dr. Valerdi is the Founder and Chief Scientist of the Science of Sport, a not-for-profit spinoff of the University

of Arizona designed to promote mathematics and science concepts in baseball, football, basketball, soccer, and cricket.

He is the co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Enterprise Transformation and the Journal of Cost Analysis and

Parametric and received a Ph.D. in Industrial and Systems Engineering from the University of Southern California.

Futuristic Education: Special Case of Technical Education

25

Prem Kalra, Dayalbagh Educational Institute, India

Chair: Bahram Shafai, USA

ABSTRACT: Today’s education system has become over-stable in that, despite changing times and needs, it is

becoming increasingly difficult to bring in innovation, creativity and excellence. Challenges that universities around

the globe face are, broadly, affordability, student employability, student empowerment and developing an

entrepreneurial mind set in students. There is also a deficiency in developing curricula that enable students to perform

up to their potential. Course content is largely static in nature, and practically no significant inter-disciplinary programs

exist at undergraduate level. Any attempt to innovate in education invariably meets with a lot of resistance; (on the

names of fundamentals are must to teach). With online content increasingly popular and accessible, a compelling

debate arises on the balance to be created between courses that are to be taught and those that can be self-learnt.

Most educational institutes mention in their vision statements their mission to produce well-rounded students. But

what exactly does this mean? Additionally, there are number of questions that need to be asked about the overall

education system:

Do we need to re-define the purpose of education?

Do we need a rigorous reinvention of education models?

Do we need to continue with a compartmentalized model of education?

How should education create nation builders and community builders?

Is the purpose of education to produce employable students or is it to develop thinking human beings?

What are the ways and means to engage students to foster higher order of thinking?

Should education empower students to solve local problems or to get ranked?

Should education contribute to only economic development or development in a larger, broader sense?

Bio: Prem Kumar Kalra is currently President of Dayalbagh Educational Institute, Agra, India. Prior to this position,

he was appointed as the Director of the Indian Institute of Technology, Rajasthan in May 2009. As Director, he has

managed to differentiate IIT Rajasthan from the other IITs. He has a good grasp of the state of higher technical

education today and clear vision of how it should be taken forward. At IIT Rajasthan, Prof. Kalra proposed and

implemented an inter-disciplinary model of education, with a strong focus on entrepreneurship to solve real-life

societal problems. Under the leadership of Prof. Kalra, IIT Rajasthan is developing a new campus in Jodhpur,

Rajasthan. This is being designed as a truly integrated green campus with a target of zero net energy, net water and

zero net waste. A high capacity solar power plant is also being built on campus with a mix of different technologies

and this plant will be used for research and development, training and consulting purposes through a National Center

for Solar Energy Technologies. As part of this effort, a complete Smart Grid will also cover the campus. He has been

deeply involved in the National Mission of Education through National Mission on Education through ICT (NMEICT)

of the Ministry of HRD, Government of India since its inception stage and continues his involvement today as the

Mission coordinator. He holds BS, MS and PhD degrees from Dayalbagh Educational Institute, IIT Kanpur and

University of Manitoba, Canada in 1978, 1982 and 1987, respectively.
