Dear Colleagues:
The Manufacturing and Design Division of the Institute of Industrial & 
Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the Manufacturing and Engineering 
Design Track at the 2017 IISE Annual Conference and Expo. The conference 
is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the industrial 
and systems engineering research and practitioner communities. The 2017 
IISE Annual Conference and Expo will be one conference and there are no 
longer separate ISERC and Applied Solutions sessions. This exciting 
change will bring researchers and practitioners together to share the 
latest advances in Manufacturing and Design. To see the additional 
changes for the 2017 IISE Annual Conference and Expo, please visit:

As track chairs of the Manufacturing and Design 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 a 
session. Each session will be 80 minutes and have four presenters. Each 
speaker will have 20 minutes for his or her presentation. Abstracts are 
welcome for the Manufacturing and Engineering Design Track in the 
following areas:
Materials Processing and Manufacturing
Manufacturing Machines and Equipment
Design for Manufacturing
Lean Manufacturing Systems
Engineering Materials and Mechanics
Additive Manufacturing
Mobile Manufacturing & Software ApplicationsMicro/Nanoscale Manufacturing
Biomedical Manufacturing
Energy Manufacturing
Green Manufacturing and Sustainability
Digital Modeling and Manufacturing
Applications for the Manufacturing Industry
We strongly encourage all presenters to submit a full length paper for 
the conference proceedings, as the track will be offering two awards of 
recognition: (1) M&D Track Best Paper Award and (2) M&D Track Best 
Student Paper Award. The papers should contain results that are 
significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems 
engineering research and practitioner community. Full papers have a 
six-page limit and will undergo a double-blind peer review process. All 
accepted papers are indexed by ProQuest.  IISE is currently working on 
uploading papers of previous years onto the IISE website. Papers are not 
required, but strongly encouraged. Presentation only submissions will 
not be indexed in the conference proceedings.

(presentations/papers without the presenting author 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conference will be withdrawn from the program and the proceedings); (b) 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 (presenting authors who fail to attend will have their paper 
withdrawn from the proceedings); and (c) we ask that you be ready to 
serve as a reviewer for fellow authors and follow review deadlines - all 
authors who submit a paper are expected to review two papers.
There are also opportunities to organize invited sessions or panels. If 
you are interested in organizing an invited session or panel, please 
contact the track chairs by November 1, 2016.
In addition to research and practitioner presentations, the annual 
conference offers many opportunities for attendees, including plant
