of Engineering Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Edwardsville, IL 62026 AbstractIn today’s fierce global competition that forces manufacturing enterprises to produce morecomplicated, reliable and short life cycle products, there is an urgent need for the SIUE to bringits research and educational focus on product life cycle encompassing from design to retail. Topromote this shift of the focus, we have recently developed a unique, multi-disciplinary andstate-of-the-art laboratory funded by National Science Foundation MRI grant. The purpose ofthis paper is to introduce the composition and operation of the laboratory, its initial
