Objective
Research in scheduling has been evolving in its theoretical aspects and practical applications in the last several decades. The areas of research are widely spreading from industries for tangible products such as manufacturing systems, project management, logistics and transportation, to services for intangible products such as health care, education, sports and management. For many organizations, scheduling is one of the key technologies to improve the quality of service and to survive in competition. This international symposium aims to give opportunities to researchers and practitioners to exchange innovative ideas on various topics of scheduling and related areas.
Topics of Interest
Whole themes on scheduling, which include scheduling theory, practical scheduling technologies, optimization method, evaluation method, CAD/CAM, TOC, APS, SCM, ERP, CIM, JIT, planning, concurrent engineering, transportation, network communication, health care, service engineering, enterprise management, manufacturing simulation
