Special Track on "New Developments in Scheduling and Manufacturing"
for INCOM2012
(14th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing)
23-25 May 2012, Bucharest, Romania, http://www.incom12.ro
Track chairs:
Prof. Dirk Briskorn, University of Siegen, Siegen, Germany
Prof. Erwin Pesch, University of Siegen, Siegen, Germany
Prof. Frank Werner, Otto-von-Guericke-University, Magdeburg, Germany
Track topics:
The track includes (but is not limited to)
- - grouping and sequencing operations in multi-stage systems
- - scheduling in exible shops
- - scheduling with precedence constraints, batching, setups,
maintenance activities, and further technological constraints either
with a single (regular or non-regular) and multi-criteria objectives
- - robust scheduling
- - scheduling heuristics
- - scheduling in segments of a supply chain.
Track description and CFP:
The track presents state-of-the-art of scheduling research that
satises practical needs of modern manufacturing and resource
planning. Interdisciplinary methodologies may be presented, based on
advanced scheduling and combinatorial optimization techniques, in
order to provide ecient solution procedures for practical scheduling
problems.
It brings together experts to exchange recent developments of models
and solution techniques used for scheduling and manufacturing systems
which include single-stage as well as multi-stage facilities,
coordinating scheduling with transportation decisions, and scheduling
in segments of a supply chain.
We encourage both, practitioners and members of the scientic
community alike, to submit real world case studies and theoretical
papers considering modern manufacturing systems.
Important dates:
Deadline for submissions: October 22, 2011
Notication of acceptance: January 10, 2012
Submission of final draft: February 24, 2012
Submission:
Submitted papers (6 pages in IFAC double column format) will be
reviewed by at least two referees. Both academic and practical
communications will be considered. Scientic contributions will be
compiled into several volumes of INCOM2012 proceedings. Further
submission instructions are available from the website of the
symposium (http://www.incom12.ro). Several international journals are
associated with the symposium for publication of special issues.
