About the authors
Dr. Brian Terry led in the 1980s and 1990s a world renowned research group in Materials production and Processing at Imperial College London. During this time he supervised 16 students towards successful PhDs and six postdoctoral fellows. This research was based on substantial international industrial funding, UK and European Union government research council funding. Dr. Terry has published over 90-refereed academic articles and two textbooks in this field. He has acted as plenary speaker and international conference chair in the UK, Japan, USA, Chile, Australia and Germany. Dr. Terry was then appointed as the founding Director of the Centre for Advanced Manufacturing Management and Professor of Manufacturing Management at the University of Sunderland. The Centre was established as a result of substantial funding by the UK Government, European Union and inward investing companies including Nissan and Samsung. Additional funding was obtained for a large supplier development research and consulting program throughout the high volume manufacturing SME sector of the UK. After a subsequent period of 15 years in international management consultancy Dr. Terry has recently returned to academic research and teaching in the fields of commercial and industrial application of strategy, operations, supply chain and project management.
