Call for Papers - 7th International Conference on 
Manufacturing Research (ICMR’2009), September 08 
- 10, 2009, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom.

Sponsored by the

UK Consortium of Manufacturing Engineering Heads (COMEH),

UK Engineering Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC),

The International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP)

  For over two decades the Conference has been 
the main manufacturing research conference 
organized within the UK, successfully bringing 
researchers, academics and industrialists 
together to share their knowledge and 
experiences. The conference is organized by the 
Consortium of UK Manufacturing Engineering Heads 
(COMEH).  COMEH is an independent body 
established in 1978. Its main aim is to promote 
manufacturing engineering education, training and 
research.  To achieve this, the Consortium 
maintains a close liaison with government bodies 
concerned with the training and continuing 
development of professional engineers, while 
responding to appropriate consultative and 
discussion documents and other 
initiatives.  COMEH is represented on the 
Engineering Professor’s Council (EPC) and it 
organizes and supports national manufacturing 
engineering education research conferences and symposia.

The conference topics are grouped in the following main themes:

Digital Technologies (Virtual Engineering and 
Manufacturing Simulations, Enterprise Integration 
and Virtual Enterprises, Factory Planning and 
Control, Product Life-cycle Management, Rapid 
Product Development and Manufacture, 
CAD/CAM/CAE/CAPP/ERP, Robust design, quality 
Engineering and data mining, E-design, E-Manufacture and E-business)

Advanced Manufacturing Technologies 
(Manufacturing Systems, Intelligent Design and 
Manufacture, Precision Engineering and 
Nanotechnology, Rapid Product Development and 
Manufacture, Assembly Processes, Design Optimisation, Healthcare applications)

Enterprise Management (Lean and Agile 
Manufacturing, Product Lifecycle Management, 
Enterprise Design and Knowledge Management, 
Innovation Management, Performance Measurement 
and Benchmarking; Service Science and 
Engineering; Quality Engineering and Data Mining)

Advanced Materials and Processes (Sustainable 
Materials, Materials Modelling, Surface 
Treatment, and Advanced Materials and Processes)

Manufacturing Education

The selected papers will be considered for 
publication in Special issues of the following journals:

- Proceedings of I MECH E Part B, Journal of Engineering Manufacture

- Journal of Manufacturing Systems

- International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology

- Journal of Manufacturing Technology Research.

The papers submitted to the IMRC’2009 will 
compete for the Best Paper Award.  Additionally, 
papers where a student is a primary author are 
eligible to compete for the Best Student paper Award.

Please note that the deadline for the submission 
of papers is March 31, 2009 (on-line).

Anyone interested in conducting a workshop, 
tutorial or special session during the 
conference, please contact conference chair, 
Darek Ceglarek (d.j.ceglarek at warwick.ac.uk).

More detailed information about the scope and 
contents of the conference are posted at http://go.warwick.ac.uk/icmr09 .

We plan to organize Industrial tours (Jaguar and 
Land Rover), Special Sessions featuring 
international funding bodies promoting global 
research and education collaboration, major 
European and international Initiatives 
(ManuFUTURE, IMS and others).  We will also 
organize Best Paper competition; and Best Student Paper Competition.

The IMRC’2009 Conference is organized in the 
Heartland of England (William Shakespeare’s 
birthplace; place where the first steam engine 
was developed by Boulton and Watt; the world's 
first cast iron bridge was built; birthplace of 
the British cycle and motor industry; Warwick 
castle - the largest medieval castle in UK; 
birthplace of Rugby game; and Bull Ring – one of 
the largest and busiest shopping centers in the 
United Kingdom and many other attractions).

We look forward to your contributions to the ICMR'09.

Yours sincerely,

Darek
