Optimization of Industrial Systems

In order to deal with societal challenges, novel technologies play an important role. For the advancement of technology, it is essential to share innovative ideas and thoughts on a common platform where researchers across the globe meet together and revitalize their knowledge and skills to tackle the challenges which the world faces. High complexity of the issues related to societal interdisciplinary research is the key to future revolutions. From research funders to journal editors, policymakers to think tanks, all seem to agree that the future of research lies outside disciplinary boundaries. In such prevailing conditions, various working scenarios, conditions and strategies need to be optimized.

Optimization is a multidisciplinary term, and its essence can be inculcated in any domain of business, research and other associated working dynamics. Globalization provides all-around development, and this development is impossible without technological contributions. This volume's mission is at the core of industrial engineering. All the manuscripts appended in this volume were double-blind peer-reviewed by committee members and the review team, promising high quality research. This book provides deep insights to its readers about the current scenarios and future advancements of industrial engineering in the context of optimum value. Optimization and its applicability in industrial engineering are covered, like selection of designing parameters, decisions related to conditions of optimum process or operation parameters, behavior of response variables, facilities planning and management, transportation and supply chain management, quality engineering, reliability and maintenance, product design and development, human factors and ergonomics, project management, service system and service management, waste management, sustainable manufacturing and operations, systems design and performance measurement. Whether for the veteran engineer or the student, this is a must-have volume for any library.

為了應對社會挑戰，新穎的技術扮演著重要角色。為了推進技術的發展，有必要在一個共同平台上分享創新的想法和思考，讓全球的研究人員聚集在一起，更新他們的知識和技能，應對世界面臨的挑戰。與社會跨學科研究相關的問題的高度複雜性是未來革命的關鍵。從研究資金提供者到期刊編輯，從政策制定者到智庫，似乎都同意研究的未來在學科界限之外。在這種情況下，需要優化各種工作場景、條件和策略。

優化是一個多學科的術語，其本質可以融入到任何業務、研究和其他相關的工作動態中。全球化提供了全方位的發展，而這種發展在沒有技術貢獻的情況下是不可能的。本卷的使命是工業工程的核心。本卷中的所有手稿都經過了委員會成員和審稿團的雙盲同行評審，保證了高質量的研究。本書深入洞察了工業工程在最佳價值背景下的當前情況和未來發展，涵蓋了優化及其在工業工程中的應用，如設計參數的選擇、與最佳過程或操作參數相關的決策、響應變量的行為、設施規劃和管理、運輸和供應鏈管理、質量工程、可靠性和維護、產品設計和開發、人因工程學、項目管理、服務系統和服務管理、廢物管理、可持續製造和運營、系統設計和績效測量。無論是對於資深工程師還是學生來說，這都是任何圖書館必備的一冊。
