Dear colleagues,

The Engineering Economy Division of the Institute of Industrial Engineers (IIE) is sponsoring the Engineering Economy Track for the 2014 Industrial and Systems Engineering Research Conference (ISERC).  The ISERC was formerly known as the Industrial Engineering Research Conference (IERC).  The ISERC, which is part of the IIE Annual Conference and Expo, is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering research community.

As the Track Chairs of the ISERC 2014 Engineering Economy Track, we would like to encourage you to contribute to the conference by submitting an abstract.  Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to present their work in ISERC sessions. Each session will be 75 minutes in length and have 3 or 4 presenters. Abstracts are welcome all major areas of engineering economy (but not limited to):

Asset Management
Cost/Benefit Analysis for Innovative Systems
e-Commerce and Engineering Economy
Economics of Green Engineering
Economics of Micro-Scale Recycling
Life-Cycle Cost Assessment/Management
Energy Policy and Engineering Economy
Engineering Economy Education
Engineering Economics & the 21st Century Engineer

Financial Engineering
Prices & Portfolios
Real Options Valuation
Remodeling of Insurance Systems
Research Trends & Literature
Sustainability
Technology Replacement Management
Value Chain Management
Other Related Topics



We encourage all presenters to submit a full length paper for the conference proceedings.  The papers should contain results that are significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems engineering research community.  Full papers have a ten-page limit and will undergo a double-blind peer review process. Papers of exceptional quality will be considered for the Engineering Economy Track Best Paper Award.  All accepted papers are indexed by ProQuest.  IIE is currently working on uploading papers of previous years onto IIE website. Presentations without a paper are acceptable, but will not be indexed in the conference proceedings.


The important deadlines for the conference are:
