Call for Abstracts & Papers
2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo
Track: Quality Control and Reliability Engineering (QCRE)
May 30 – June 2, 2020
Abstract/Paper Submission Website: http://conferenceabstracts.com/IISE2020.htm
Conference Website: https://www.iise.org/Annual/

Dear colleagues,

The Quality Control and Reliability Engineering (QCRE) Division of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the QCRE Track at the 2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering research and practitioner communities. The 2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo will continue to integrate research and industry applications under one conference.

As track chairs of the QCRE Track, we encourage you to contribute to the conference and track by submitting a 1 pg. extended abstract (template provided on the abstract submission website). Authors will be able to claim these works as refereed extended abstracts, which will be available on the conference website and can be cited. They will not be copyrighted or indexed in the official conference proceedings, and therefore there is no limitation on reusing extended abstract material for other purposes (e.g., toward the publication of journal papers or subsequent conference proceedings). Extended abstracts are welcome in the following areas:
●        Machine Learning and Data Analytics
●        Deep Learning in Manufacturing
●        Computer Design of Experiments
●        Data streams and Online Data Analysis
●        Reliability, Availability, Maintainability
●        Reliability Prediction, Modeling and Analysis
●        Physical Reliability Modeling
●        Reliability Growth Modeling
●        Degradation and Lifetime Testing
●        Accelerated Life Testing
●        Fault Tree and System Failure Analysis
●        System Reliability and Optimization
●        Repairable Systems
●        Warranty Data Analysis
●        Distributed Sensing and Data Analysis
●        Decision Analysis and Risk Management
●        Systems Engineering and Design
●        High-dimensional Data Analysis
●        Graphical Models
●        Systems Resilience Analysis
●        Quality Engineering and Applied Statistics
●        Quality Improvement in the Service Sector
●        Quality Planning and Management
●        Statistical Quality Control and Diagnosis
●        Six Sigma Methods and Process Capability
●        Statistical Process Control & Tolerancing
●        Design and Analysis of Experiments
●        Profiles and Multiple Responses
●        Multivariate Data Analysis
●        Bayesian Methods
●        Response Surface and Surrogate Modeling
●        Regression and Forecasting
●        Sampling and Inspection
●        Nonparametric Methods
●        Big Data in Quality and Reliability
Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to present their work in a conference session. Regular sessions will be 80 minutes and have up to four presenters. There are also opportunities to organize special sessions (e.g., tutorials, panels, workshops). If you are interested in organizing such a session, please contact the track chairs by October 15, 2019. We also encourage all presenters to submit a full length paper for the conference proceedings. The papers should contain methods and results that are significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems engineering community. Full papers have a six-page limit and will undergo a double-blind peer review process. All accepted papers will be copyrighted and indexed in the conference proceedings via ProQuest.

Important deadlines:
●    Abstract submission deadline:                                                      November 8, 2019
●    Notification of decision on abstract:                                            December 5, 2019
●    Paper submission deadline (optional but encouraged):                January 20, 2020
●    Notification of decision on paper:                                                February 24, 2020
●    Paper final revision submission deadline:                                    March 13, 2020
●    Presenting author registration deadline:                                       March 13, 2020

If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) the presenting author for the paper must register for the conference by March 13, 2020 (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 other papers in the track and follow the review deadlines.
We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!
