Industrial Workshop

November, 23^rd 2021  

Objectives

Being able to create and manage, making evolve and deploy smart and sustainable collaborative networks to face challenges and issues that need to cross advices, theories and practices from researcher from both academic from various specialities and industrialist from different domains: automotive, energy, transportation, food… As a consequence, only a cooperation among three R&D axes including the socio-human, social-science and systems engineering can lead to the gather value in social and environmental global terms.

The ambition of the workshop is to bring together industrials and academics (1) to put forth collaborative challenges for industrial research, (2) to provide evidence of various forms of collaborative research programs and (3) to boost the emergence of new collaboration opportunities.

This workshop aims first to focus on challenges, needs and expected values of all stakeholders who are concerned or impacted by such challenges. It is second to make an overview of past and current R&D works, being both theories or application case oriented, and to focus on collaboration projects involving academic and industrial partners who take care about these challenges. The goal of the workshop is then to promote new ideas, principles and to launch new collaborations between participants to converge towards smart and sustainable networks.

Call for Contributing Papers

Original submissions, with explicit contributions to these topics are invited from both academic and industrial researchers and practitioners. Papers dealing with Smart and Sustainable systems and organizations (challenges and issues, needs and expected values, …), Performance evaluation and Optimization of these systems, System science and System thinking approaches, are welcome.

 The types of contributions can focus on:

•  Crossing theories, advices and practices: Social, Environmental and Engineering Sciences
•  Applied research papers, notably with focus on digitalisation: Applied data science, AI, Virtual and Augmented reality, Digital Twins
•  Case studies, return of experience and best practices reports

Accepted contributions will follow the same reviewing process that PRO-VE’2021 and will be included in the proceedings of the conference. A special issue in an international journal is currently studied to promote extended versions of these papers.
