Description
Symposium AI and Beyond AI in Industrial Engineering
On the occasion of the graduation of Sjors Jansen and Joost de Kruijff as PhD’s in Industrial Engineering on July 4th and 5th, 2019, PhD committee members team up to present their research:
Feryal Erhun
Judge Business School, Cambridge University, United Kingdom
Erik Demeulemeester
Faculty of Economics and Business, KU Leuven, Belgium
Dan Trietsch PhD
Independent researcher, Auckland, New Zealand
Herbert Meyr
Supply Chain Management Department, University of Hohenheim, Germany
Johann Hurink
Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics & Computer Science, University of Twente, The Netherlands
The symposium is chaired by Ton de Kok, School of Industrial Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands.
With the recent developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI), it is important to position scientific Industrial Engineering challenges in this context. The extreme complexity of strategic, tactical and operational decision making under uncertainty in operations management, e.g. in project management and supply chain management, has fostered six decades of scientific research in close collaboration with industry. The variety of contributions to the symposium are exemplary for this scientific research in OR/IE/OM. The methodological perspective of AI holds a promise for further steps towards decision support from board room to shop floor. The symposium closes with an open discussion on synergies between AI and OR/IE/OM.
