Industry has a particular responsibility to shape the transformation from
our current economy into an ecologically and socially sustainable one.
Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates how unexpected events can
disrupt entire global logistics chains in short time. The resulting demand
for change, combining sustainability and resilience aspects, poses enormous
challenges for industrial production. At the same time, the ongoing
digitalization and networking of industrial value chains – summarized as the
fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0 – offer new opportunities and
capabilities to reach these objectives. We see sustainability as a driver of
structural change: In parallel to our current digital transformation, we
need a sustainability transformation of today’s value creation and
production models into future-proof resilient approaches.

The objective of this minitrack is to foster a discussion how new
information & communication systems can foster sustainability and resilience
in the next generation of production systems. Data-enriched views on
processes and an increasing information capability (in real-time, complete,
distributed) are the underlying principles of improving the efficiency of
processes and avoiding waste over the complete life cycle of products and
industrial assets. A main enabler in this regard is cross-company data
spaces. They link classic “data silos” even across company boundaries.
Supported by a combination of optimization, simulation, artificial
intelligence and machine learning, new insights can be created.

In this minitrack, we aim to provide a forum for researchers and
practitioners to discuss novel approaches in dealing with sustainability
through resilient information systems and connected data spaces.
Particularly, we invite submissions that discuss cross-organizational
aspects of data sharing, e.g., to enable analyzing issues of sustainability
and resilience across entire value chains. Areas of focus and interest of
this minitrack include, but are not limited to:

*	Designing information systems for sustainable engineering,
production, usage, and recycle/refurbish
*	Resource efficiency through digitally supported product life
extension
*	Resilience and sustainability by design
*	Resilience in digital supply networks
*	Resilience and sustainability by design
*	Reactive hybrid intelligence for dealing with unexpected disruptions
*	Data sovereignty and data cooperation for sustainability
*	Lifetime synchronization of heterogeneous cyber-physical production
systems
*	Sustainability through data-enriched supply chains
*	Process mining to enable sustainability-driven data analytics
*	Digital data-driven business models as enabler of sustainability in
manufacturing
*	Sustainability impact of (platform-based) production ecosystems
*	Rebound effects managing the trade-off between sustainability gains
by IS and digitalization versus resource consumption by IT
