Call for Papers

4th International Workshop on
Key Enabling Technologies for Digital Factories
In conjunction with CAiSE 2022
6-10 June 2022, Leuven, Belgium

https://sites.google.com/view/ket4df2022/ 

=============================================

Scope
---------------------
The manufacturing industry is entering a new digital era in which advanced information systems and especially (big) data-driven methods and AI techniques allow companies to move beyond distributed and supervisory control systems to support significant operational improvements and allow dynamic adaptability. Moreover, human-centered trustworthy AI systems provide the ability to augment human work and extend human capabilities in order to solve problems and achieve goals that were unreachable by either humans or machines alone. Such efforts may allow the manufacturing industry in the post-COVID to "go back to normal” and  optimize, scale and ensure their processes and services towards a circular and resilient economy. 

The goal of this workshop is to attract high quality research papers focusing on advanced information systems for digital factories and smart manufacturing.

Topics of interest
---------------------
The topics include but are not limited to:

- Advanced Information Systems for Smart Manufacturing
- Information Systems Engineering for Production Management  
- Big Data Technologies and Analytics for Smart Manufacturing
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning methods for production systems 
- AI and digital twin applications in production and operations management
- Design issues for multimodal human-AI interactions in the industrial environment
- Explainable and transparent AI in manufacturing
- AI approaches to support and leverage circular economy production models
- AI approaches to predict and minimize the effects of unpredictable events
- Digital intelligent assistants, software robots (softbots) and chatbots
- Applications of Human-Centered AI systems in manufacturing
