The main topics OiE 2019 will be "Production Engineering, Logistics and Supply Chain Management – research and development".
It will cover four key areas: the supply chain, logistics, production and resource management in logistics and production. The organizers wish that the next OIE conference will encourage the authors to present state-of-the art studies on theories, methods and methodologies known and appreciated, as well as to be the inspiration for the description of the new not yet presented concepts and solutions. The conference will also provide the exchanges of views on practical, applicable, and modern technologies, as well as available and developing commercial applications used in those areas.
