Dynamics of logistic processes and networks are at the heart of the conference. We invite empirical, theoretical, methodological, and practice-oriented contributions addressing the modeling, planning, optimization and control of processes in supply chains, logistic networks, production systems, and material flow systems and facilities.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following within production, logistics, and supply chain management:

  • Dynamics and complexity
  • Modeling and optimization methods
  • Uncertainty, risk, resilience, and performance
