Abstract

Since the medievel times the critical leading role of science has been a) to challenge the entrenched conceptions of human reason and b) to introduce new methods of investigation for deeper understanding of nature of things. Once again a scientists, critical thinkers, and engineers are indtroducing new notions in the transdisciplinary arena from which new generation of intellectual and physical analysis and synthesis tools and techniques will be produced.These tools and techniques will take the form in which science, engineering, and management notions would be fused into a unified transdisciplinary entities. These developments in integrated design and process science would in turn, once again, transform the human scene beyond recognition.
