Industrial Engineering Non-Traditional Applications in International Settings

Industrial engineers survey the state of the field and its applications outside of the US where it was born. Among their topics are an integrated production planning model for non-cyclic maintenance and production planning, scheduling automotive stamping operations using mathematical programming and constraint programming, an integrated approach to optimizing open-pit mine block sequencing, using earthquake risk data to assign cities to disaster-response facilities in Turkey, and comparative financial efficiency analysis for the Turkish banking sector.
