This panel will focus upon work systems design from a macroergonomic perspective. The panel will investigate the future of work systems from the viewpoint of: (1) an activity performed by; (2) humans with particular characteristics; (3) in a context. The researchers and practitioners on the panel have focused on one or more of these dimensions of work design/redesign, product design or organizational design. The design of 21st Century systems must take this broader perspective. In the same way, this panel mirrors the diversity of backgrounds, cultures and contexts for future work systems.

This summary outlines major themes introduced during a multiple-session symposium series devoted to the topic of work design in the 21st century. The 6 sessions in the series address the future of work design in relation to: (1) macroergonomic analysis of work systems design; (2) production systems design and automation of work; (3) human factors research needs in internet design; (4) design of education and training; (5) work design and community design; and (6) work in extreme environments. Session chairs participated in a 7th panel session to offer perspectives on the future of work design in relation to session topics. These perspectives are summarized here. The panel co-chair, Michael Wade, also provides a perspective on future trends in the integration of work and recreation. Collectively, the session and panel participants provide a rich body of judgment and opinion regarding the trajectory and evolution of work design in the coming decades, as well as likely reciprocal interactions between changes in work design and transformations in performance of human sociotechnical, organizational and socioeconomic systems.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the practical aspect of professional mobility readiness of future engineers-teachers in the area of computer technology. It has been found out that organization of practical training (industrial practice) of engineers-teachers is focused on modern profession requirements. It contributes to the formation of necessary professional skills and testing the abilities and capabilities of future specialists’ professional activities needed to develop readiness for professional mobility. Emphasis has been placed on the advantages of project technology in the practical training of higher education applicants. It involves the development of creative potential, innovative thinking, high creativity, the ability to comprehensively combine research, design, entrepreneurship and evaluate the decisions consequences. At the same time, the practice provides mastery of the methodology and means of automated collective complex systems design at all life cycle stages and the formation of information and communication skills of the future engineers-teachers in the area of computer technology. It has been proved that the project technology introduction contributes to the pedagogical tasks implementation: intensification, improving the efficiency and quality of the educational process; training differentiation. It provides the future specialist with his own trajectory of self-education; system integration of subject tasks. The practical aspect of the formation of professional mobility readiness in the context of design technology, involves identifying personal prospects for professional development, self-improvement of the ideal model of professionally mobile personality. It promotes the ability formation of individual professional style of activity, creativity, self-development, and self-organization. At the same time, project technology provides readiness formation to create innovations and implement them, take into account all possible scenarios, be able to take risks, work in a team and interact in a highly competitive environment. That is, it creates all the conditions for the formation of professional mobility readiness of future engineersteachers in the area of computer technology.

According to the error between the model predictive output and the future expected output, ILPC carries out an iterative learning and amending process on the current and the future control input vector, namely performs forecast, iterative amendment, forecast again, iterative amendment again repeatedly in the iterative domain. This paper gives a fast high-precision temperature control systems structure, characteristics and realization method. CARI model and the improved generalized predictive control method are used to improve the control precision of the system, and shorten the response time. The quick high precision temperature control systems structure and realization method are given, and according to the requirements of the task, the existing predictive control algorithm has been improved. Through the experiment, its temperature predictive control systems design scheme and realization method is proved to be reasonable and feasible. It can meet the demands for the expected temperature control.

The objective of this article is to explain the dominance and advocacy of the design- oriented research approach in Wirtschaftsinformatik (Business Informatics or BI), one of the major Information Systems (IS) communities. To this end, we employed a research approach based on autobiographical material. Sixteen well-known BI scholars served as informants, and provided career autobiographies in which they document their perceptions and observations regarding the genesis and development of BI. The average age of this sample of contemporary witnesses is 70 years, signifying a rich body of experience. Based on an interpretive analysis of the data, we find that the design of IS is deeply rooted in BI's history, and our results also show that there have always been close relationships with practice. As a consequence, we conclude that the success of BI as an academic community is inseparably associated with systems design, implementation, and engineering. Against this background, we argue that it is unlikely that BI will weaken its design orientation in the future, although external forces signify a shift to a more behaviouristic research approach. In order to balance the internal strength of the community and the external forces, we suggest a ‘theory-driven design approach’ as a viable strategy for the future orientation of the community.

This chapter has been written to provide some guidance to researchers who wish to be actively associated with assisting change taking place in the organizations that they are studying. This means that they will not be detached observers interested only in observation and documentation, but will take on a role as a facilitator of the change process. This can be done through advice to management, in which case the researcher is operating in a manner similar to a consultant, but it can also be done more democratically. My own approach, which has been developed over many years, is to assist the future users of any new system, together with those who will be affected by its use, to play an important role in the systems design process. This role can take different forms but usually incorporates the design of the organizational structures that will surround new technology. Many groups have now become designers of their own systems ranging from clerks, salespeople and technologists to senior managers.
