Estimados colegas y amigos:
Un colega nos comparte la siguiente interesante
informacion: "En la Ciudad de Guadalajara en al ano 1965, era
muy comentada la hazana del Ing. Matute Remus de haber movido el
Edificio de la Telefonica Â12 metros! para efecto de la
ampliacion de la Avenida Juarez. Algunos considerabamos este
hecho como una "leyenda urbana"; lo curioso es que en la escuela
de arquitectura nunca se dio ni siquiera una breve charla al
respecto. Recientemente gracias a la maravilla del Internet, me
encuentre la nota en la presentacion anexa y mejor aun, una
secuencia fotografica de los hechos los cuales se realizaron en
tan solo 6 dias y sin suspender los trabajos en el interior del
edificio. Casi podria asegurar que las nuevas generaciones no
tienen la menor idea de lo que representa la estatua del
ingeniero empujando el Edificio de la Telefonica."
ÂReconocimiento a un mexicano ilustre!
Agradezco las contribuciones y opiniones
enviadas.

Estimado Arnoldo:
Como Ingeniero Industrial (con MaestrÃÂaÃÂen AdministraciÃÂn
Industrial en CanadÃÂ), debo decirte que la definiciÃÂn
"concepto moderno de IngenierÃÂa Industrial", como lo
comenta uno de tus corresponsales, ÃÂno es una
definiciÃÂn moderna, ya que data de 1955, cuando
Harold B. Maynard la publicÃÂ en su muy famoso manual de
IngenierÃÂa IndustrialÃÂen inglÃÂs (que era para los
ingenieros industriales la Biblia de la carrera): "Industrial Engineering Handbook".
Mucho antes que eso,ÃÂ Maynard publicÃÂÃÂÃÂen 1940
laÃÂTercera Ed., McGraw-Hill,ÃÂ de su libro: "Estudio de
Tiempos y Movimientos e Incentivos Salariales". Como es fÃÂcil
observar, el autor de la definiciÃÂn arriba comentada ya no es
un buenÃÂreferente, ni es conveniente mencionarlo por lo
antiguo (mÃÂs de 57 aÃÂos) de sus conceptos.ÃÂYa noÃÂes una
autoridad en IngenierÃÂa Industrial, desde 1980.
Saludos

Hola Salvador, te comparto algunas definiciones vigentes de
ingenierÃÂa industrial. No difieren mucho de la mencionada en
el envio....

The American Engineers' Council for Professional
Development (ECPD, the predecessor of ABET)[1]
has defined "engineering" as:
[T]he creative application of scientific principles to design
or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing
processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination;
or to construct or operate the same
with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their
behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects
an intended function, economics of operation and safety to
life and property.[2][3][4]
Definition and Nature of the Work
Industrial engineers determine the most effective ways to use
the basic factors of productionÃÂÂpeople, machines, materials,
information, and energyÃÂÂto make a product. They are
primarily concerned with increasing productivity through the
management of people, methods of business organization, and
technology. To solve organizational, production, and related
problems efficiently, industrial engineers carefully study the
product requirements, use mathematical methods to meet those
requirements, and design manufacturing and information
systems. They develop management control systems to aid in
financial planning and cost analysis, and design production
planning and control systems to coordinate activities and
ensure product quality. They also design or improve systems
for the physical distribution of goods and services, as well
as determining the most efficient plant locations. Industrial
engineers develop wage and salary administration systems and
job evaluation programs. Many industrial engineers move into
management positions because the work is closely related to
the work of managers Industrial engineers must be good at
solving problems. They must combine their technical knowledge
with a sense of human capabilities and limitations. They
should be able to organize many details into a broad view of
the total operations and organization of a company. Although
much of their work is done independently, industrial engineers
must also be able to cooperate with other engineers,
technicians, and managers. They must be able to talk with
production workers and be willing to understand their
concerns. Since they may present their plans in the form of
written reports or oral presentations, industrial engineers
must have good communication skills.
Industrial Engineering Definition
Discipline
of utilizing and coordinating humans, machines,
and materials
to attain a desired output
rate
with the optimumutilization
of energy,
knowledge,
money,
and time. It employs certain techniques
(such as floor

time standards, wage
rates, incentive
payment
plans) to control
the quantity
and quality
of goods
and services
produced.

What is industrial engineering?
The field of industrial engineering
has had many definitions given to it. Most of the definitions
include all of the same elements stated in slightly different
ways. For example:
The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)
defines industrial engineering as:"...the profession in
which a knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences
gained by study, experience and practice is applied with
judgment to develop ways to utilize economically, the materials
and forces of nature for the benefit of mankind."
ÃÂ[1]The American Institute of Industrial Engineers (AIIE)
defines industrial engineering as:ÃÂ "concerned with the design,
improvement and installation of integrated systems of people,
materials, equipment and energy. It draws upon specialized
knowledge and skill in the mathematical, physical and social
sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering
analysis and design to specify, predict and evaluate the results
to be obtained from such systems. [1]"
