26th ICPR (Virtual Conference) - Taichung, Taiwan
Intelligent and Transformative Production in Pandemic Times
Celebrating the 60th anniversary of the International Journal of Production Research
While experiencing the impact of the acute pandemic on our lives and the economy we still have to keep our faith towards the
future of production, because modern human life relies on production with its supply networks in any kind of format. Looking at
the future of production calls for transformative research exploiting the possibilities artificial intelligence offers, particularly for
challenges at all levels of the economy such as sustainable development.
The ICPR is regarded worldwide as one of the leading conferences promoting research in the field of production research and
industrial engineering and related domains. We invite you to contribute your research to this long-standing conference and
virtually interact with peers to address the challenges for production, supply networks and interfaces with other domains.
We invite you to submit Abstracts
