[DMANET] Deadline: April 30, 2024 for submissions special issue on Scheduling Theory and Algorithms for Sustainable Manufacturing

Extended deadline for submissions to the special issue on

https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/7C92M715OY

The aim of this Special Issue is to present state-of-the art
mathematical models and algorithms providing efficient solutions for
practical planning and scheduling issues in sustainable manufacturing
and logistics. Currently, the production and logistics systems for goods
and services are faced with both production cost optimization and
scarcity of resources. Scheduling plays a central role and offers the
possibility to:

* Reduce production waste,
* Manage efficiently and limit the consumption of material resources
and energy,
* use efficiently new energy sources, especially renewable ones.

Potential topics to be addressed in this issue on the contributions of
scheduling theory and algorithm for sustainable manufacturing include,
but are not limited to, the following:

* Consideration of energy constraints in scheduling and planning;
* Green scheduling approaches in Industry 4.0;
* Advanced scheduling and planning algorithms for minimization of waste;
* Contributions of scheduling and planning theory for minimization of
the carbon emissions;
* Multi-objective scheduling problems taking into account the
sustainability criteria.
* Exact and approximate models and methods for sustainable scheduling
and planning;
* Industrial applications of advanced scheduling and planning algorithms.
