Jacob Rubinovitz (born 6 September 1947, in Lodz, Poland, heb. יעקב רובינוביץ) is an Israeli scientist. He was the head of the Laboratory for robotics and CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) at the Technion. He published a lot of books and papers in his area. Here are some.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Biography

Rubinovitz was born in Lodz, Poland, 6 September 1947. In 1957 he moved to Israel, in aliath Gomulka. This was coming of Jews from Poland to Israel which started in 1956, after the Polish October. He graduated from the Faculty of Industrial engineering and Management at the Technion. From 1969 to 1973 he was a senior systems analyst at Mamram and senior systems analyst at Control Data (Israel). He managed the industrial software team (1973–1983) and initially worked at Israel Aerospace Industries, where an industrial software was developed MRP. Software called MASS was developed by a team of IAI programmers, and installed by CDC(Israel) in Escom, the power company of South Africa, in 1976 for maintenance of power plants . He installed the software (Cyber Manufacturing Management System) Industrial Management software for Enterprise resource planning developed by the company, worldwide in South Africa, Netherlands, United States and Australia.

In 1987, at the end of his doctoral studies at Pennsylvania State University, he served a year as a visiting professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering at Pennsylvania State University. In 1988, he returned to Israel and joined the Industrial Engineering & Management department at Technion. He created and led the Laboratory of robotics and CIM at the Technion.[6] Dr Hussein Naseraldin was his teaching assistant (currently he is a lecturer at the ORT Braude College of Engineering).[7] While Rubinovitz was a faculty member of The Faculty of Industrial Engineering & Management, he had a joint activity with his teaching assistant in the field of active learning. This activity resulted from the vision of promoting active learning among students of production and management. For his teaching assistant Hussein, while Hussein completed his master degree at the Technion, Rubinovitz obtained financial assistance for developing active learning models and tools and utilities accounted for active learning of Industrial engineering.

In 1995, Rubinovitz was on a sabbatical at the University of Pittsburgh,[8] where Amlan Maitra (then MSc) was his graduate student.[9][10]

From 2003 to 2004, Rubinovitz taught industrial engineering at the Tel Aviv University. In 2005, he went on early retirement from the Technion due to illness (a brain stem glioma). Rubinovitz has published books and articles in his field. He was a member of the curriculum committee of Science and Technology Administration in the Ministry of Education in Israel. As of March 2012, he was the guest of honor at the national conference of Industrial Engineering and Management in Israel – The 17th National Industrial Engineering And Management Conference.

Rubinovitz is married to Nurit, and he is a father of three children (Ofer Sagi and Michal Slonim) and a grandfather of three (Yuval, Harel Eizner-Rubin and Neveh Slonim). Previously, Rubinovitz lived in Mishmar HaShiv'a (a Moshav). [11] [12]
