ABSTRACT
The Integrated Educational Supply Chain Management (IESCM) for the colleges and universities
provides two main contributions to the society, including human resource contribution and
research contribution through two main activities of colleges/universities: education and research.
In the world, theories about Educational Supply Chain were studied in the last years of the 90s,
but in Vietnam these contents are still new. This article depicts a holistic view, comprising inputs,
the process, and outputs of the educational supply chain. With the analysis about three group
activities of supply chain management and some experiences from education developing
countries, the paper also provides educational management a new dimension to understand how
supply chain management contributes to successful university operations, especially enhances the
efficiency of scientific and technological transfer.
Keywords: The Integrated Educational Supply Chain Management (IESCM), Efficiency of scientific and
technological transfer, Relationship Management, Social Orientation, Strategy.
INTRODUCTION
In recent times, the theory of supply chain
management (SCM) has been widely studied
under a variety of labels and for a number of
reasons: improving operations, better
outsourcing, increasing profits, enhancing
customer satisfaction, generating quality
outcomes, tackling competitive pressures,
increasing
globalization,
increasing
importance of E-commerce, and growing
complexity of supply chains.

In the world
The first theory about supply chain
management appeared in 1950s with the
development of goods and relationships in
businesses... and it rapidly widened their
applications to other fields of life. (Fig 1)
It is a surprising fact that researchers
developed SCM models focusing mostly on
improving
business
operations.
Few,
particularly academic researchers, do not
realize that the research on academic supply
chain management may also be conducted for
their own educational institutions.

Activities of colleges/universities
A university is regarded as a service provider
with 2 main services: Education and
Research. Through proper educational
management, the university can produce
quality outcomes for the society.
Factors influence on the supply chain for
colleges/universities often are Programs
Establishment (PE), Universities culture
(UC), Faculty Capabilities (FC), Facilities
(FA). In Vietnam, it also be depend on the
management and regulation of government.
Outcomes
Graduates: Quality of graduates often
include: Knowledge (Tacit or Explicit), skills,
competencies, capabilities, ethics, career
Development Programs
Researches: Quality research outcomes may
include problem solution, pure theory, thesis
findings, internal and external projects
applications,
researchers,
research
publications, or research findings, etc.
Customers
EEducation Customers: Graduates, family
(parents,
siblings,
relatives,
etc.),
employers
of government and private
organizations.
Research Customers: Funding organizations
of research projects, research outcomes
(researchers, research publications, findings
etc.),
Others
(research
professional
organizations, Society of manufacturing
engineers and Trade Associations, etc.).
Consumers
The society is the end
customer in
educational
supply
chain.
As
colleges/universities are the part of the
society, the final outcomes of this supply
chain, including graduates with desirable
quality and quality research outcomes are
delivered to the society.
The activities in supply chain management
for colleges/universities and their effects to
the transfer of science & technology
There are three groups of activities in supply
chain management for Colleges/universities.

ABSTRACT
The robotic bluetooth cleaner is a kind of the semi-automatic robot that can communicate with
smart devices such as smartphones, Computers by transferring bluetooth signal which is generated
in many electronic devices. This article presents a mechanical design and fabrication of the robot
as well as an algorithm for programming. The robot can move automatically on the floor and
collect dirt over a wide area by using triangular swept mechanism. The ultrasonic sensor detects
the distances from any obstacles to the robot then avoids them following the programmed paths.
This leading technology will dominate the modern domestics and vehicles in the near future.
Keywords: Bluetooth signal; robotic cleaner; domestic devices; untrasonic sensor.
STATEMENT PROBLEMS
Housework is now kind of tired and timeconsuming works. People clean by their
hands or some heavy wet cloth mops. It takes
lots of time to clearn a wide area.
Current products do not fulfill customers
requirements. There are various types of
cleaning machines such as vacuum cleaners
though people still have to do cleaning work
manually.
Additionally, science and technology are
developing quickly. People are desiring and
looking for a smaller product that can both
automatically and manually clean over the
wide area. This product can be connected to
smart phones or computers by a wireless
connection. And its price should be cheaper
than other common products.
