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. 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.

If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) the presenting author for the 
paper must register for the conference by March 22, 2015 
(presentations/papers without the presenting author being registered for 
the conference will be withdrawn from the program and the proceedings); 
(b) the presenting author must attend and present the paper at the 
conference; and (c) we ask that you be ready to serve as a reviewer for 
fellow authors and follow review deadlines.

There are also opportunities to organize invited sessions, or panels. In 
addition to research presentations, the annual conference offers many 
opportunities for attendees, including the Applied Solutions Conference 
program, plant tours, networking, and keynote speakers.

Thank you for the kind consideration and look forward to seeing you in 
Nashville!
