"Many companies today have multiple factories spread across different countries, known as international manufacturing networks (IMN). These factories may have different purposes and levels of expertise which affect how effective different manufacturing methods are. With the growth of new industries such as information technology and services, the number of industrial engineers working outside of traditional manufacturing is increasing. This means that the roles and responsibilities of industrial engineers may change in the future. The field of industrial engineering is expanding, but there is a concern about maintaining the ,core principles that distinguish it from other disciplines. This book covers various topics in industrial and manufacturing engineering, including research and review papers that focus on the fundamental and applied sciences, as well as innovative technologies that advance knowledge in product handling and manufacturing on a component, system, and societal level"-- Back cover.
