Dear Colleagues,



The Logistics & Supply Chain Division of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the Facilities Design & Planning Track at the IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2023. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the Industrial and Systems Engineering research and practitioner communities. The IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2023 will continue to integrate research and industry applications under one conference.



As Track Chairs of the Facilities Design & Planning Track, we encourage you to contribute to the Conference and Track by submitting a 250-word abstract or presentation summary. 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 this material for other purposes (e.g., toward the publication of journal papers or subsequent conference proceedings). We highly encourage Abstracts and Presentations Summaries that demonstrate Academic-Industry collaboration and the application of emerging technologies and methods.  Key areas include:


*         Facility Design and Layout
*         Material Handling Systems
*         Storage and Handling Systems
*         Order Fulfillment Systems
*         Order Picking Systems
*         Warehouse Automation
*         Warehouse Operations
*         Warehouse Management Systems
*         Warehouse Logistics
*         Distribution Operations
*         Cross Docking and Transportation
*         Container Operations
*         Single-Echelon Inventory Tracking and Control
*         Sensor Systems for Warehouses
*         Ergonomics in Facility Logistics
*         Retail Store Space Management
*         Green and Sustainable Facilities
*         EV Charging Facilities Planning
*         Facilities Planning in Disaster Recovery
*         Physical Internet
*         Material Handling Education
*         Digital Twins in Material Handling
*         AI in Facilities Management
*         Facilities IoT





Authors of accepted abstracts and presentation summaries will be invited to share their work in a conference session. Regular sessions will be 80 minutes and have up to four presentations. There will also be options where authors can elect to share their content in a “Poster Session”. In addition, there are opportunities to organize and/or participate in Special Sessions (Panels, Workshops, etc.). If you are interested, please contact us by October 28, 2022.



While not required, we strongly encourage all presenters to submit a paper for publication so discoveries can be permanently documented. This year, two types of papers will be considered: Research Papers and Case Study Papers.

●       Research Papers (with a limit of six pages) contain methods and results that are significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems engineering community. They will undergo a double-blind peer review process and accepted papers will be copyrighted and indexed in the Conference Proceedings via ProQuest.

●       Case Study Papers (two to six pages) describe the application of a method or technology that addresses an important industry-motivated issue. They will be reviewed to ensure that the content focuses on the value and lessons learned for the Industrial and Systems Engineering community.  The case study papers should avoid significant marketing material. Accepted manuscripts will be published with access via the IISE website.



  Important deadlines:

*         Submission deadline for abstract/presentation summary:          November 11, 2022

*         Notification of decision on abstract/presentation summary:        December 16, 2022

(Paper submission is optional but encouraged.)

*         Speaker registration deadline:                                               February 10, 2023
