Scope:
The general theme of the 19th IFAC Symposium on Information, Control and Optimisation in Manufacturing (Incom 2027) will be “AI and digital technologies for resilient and sustainable production and logistics”. The aim of this meeting is to bring together researchers and practitioners to present and discuss emerging topics in modern management and control of manufacturing systems, their information systems and supply chains. Incom’2027 will follow a rich tradition of previous IFAC conferences and symposia in Manufacturing and Logistics held in France. IFAC Incom’2027 will focus in particular on the most innovative methods proposed in the last few years in the context of applications of artificial intelligence in manufacturing and logistics, the role of new technologies (e.g., blockchains, IoT, edge computing) and emerging scientific domains (e.g., big data, analytics, digital twins, autonomous and smart manufacturing systems, risk management) in the production management and control in the era of Industry 5.0 and artificial intelligence. An additional focus will be on management and control under uncertainty, resilience, stress tests, and viability of production systems and supply networks. Other aspects will be also considered, e.g. human-centric production, optimizations with specific society constraints, explainability and ethics in decision aid models, human-machine interaction issues, generative design approaches, interoperability, etc. and their place in new decision aid tools in industry.
