Summary

In modern industrial engineering systems, uncertainty is an inherent characteristic stemming from complex operational environments, variable demand, component aging, and external disruptions. To ensure system reliability, resilience, and cost-effectiveness, it is vital to develop and apply advanced methods capable of modeling stochastic behavior and supporting robust decision-making processes. The advanced methods could encompass the utilization of mathematical models and algorithms to optimize network design, risk analysis, and decision-making under uncertainty.


We invite original research papers on topics related to stochastic modeling of industrial engineering systems, including manufacturing systems, supply chain, power systems, and computer systems. We encourage submissions focusing on advanced methods for designing, planning, and optimizing industrial engineering systems while considering the stochastic factor. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Stochastic modeling or computer simulation for industrial engineering systems
· Reliability assessment of complex and multistate systems
· Algorithmic approaches for reliability enhancement and system optimization
· Case studies on reliability assessment in industrial engineering systems
· Redundancy allocation and maintenance optimization in industrial engineering systems
· Risk assessment and uncertainty quantification in industrial engineering systems
· Bayesian methods and machine learning for reliability modeling and prediction
· Decision support tools for stochastic reliability assessment in industrial engineering systems
