Abbas Biglar Popular answer

Dear Muhammad;

I suggest you see this valuable and comprehensive review paper to find new trend in industrial engineering and operation management.

Rashmi Negi

1. Responsible choices: optimizing process

2. The use of information and technology in building smarter and scalable operations is definitely big in operations research.

3. integration of big data analytics in operation management.

Muhammad Ali Khan Nagar

Dear Rashmi Negi,

Thanks for replying to my question. Also thanks for sharing your valuable answer.

Thanks

J.W. Joubert

Hi Muhammad, I think all will agree that "industrial engineering" is a very wide field. My concise answer would be that we have to facilitate "decision-making under uncertainty". I agree with the previous two answers that technology makes it easier, but having "big data" does not give you a handle on the uncertainty. All the systems around us (transport, health, industry) produce vast amounts of "data", specific "events" happening.

Where I really see opportunities for research in this field is to study, understand and appreciate (quantitatively) what behaviour gave rise to those events. We have a saying "Industrial Engineering is about balancing man, money and machine"... and much of our uncertainty lies in the "man" component. Yet we've conveniently split research into "qualitative" and "quantitative" - but the frontier is to quantify the softer things. That is, studying behaviour, and finding the structure in there.

Dear Dr. J.W. Joubert,

Thanks a lot for giving detailed anwer. I also agree with your views. Thanks a lot for sparing your valueable time. Your anwer definitely will help me.

Thanks & Regards

Now electronics industries are practicing "seru production" in their assy.lines. Ex: Sony, Samsung.

Look further details in their keywords which may be helpful to you.

Industry 4.0 has opened a vast range of researchers, IoT and IoP and how to handle big data are all the rage these days. How industries are gonna absorb this 4.0 thing and how the transform themselves into smart industries is a big challenge and i believe industrial engineers have big role to play in this regard..its about time industries liase with academia for this industrial revolution
