About APIEMS

APIEMS2026 conference continues the series of APIEMS webinar to provide a forum for exchanging ideas and information about latest developments in the field of industrial engineering and management system among professionals from Asia-Pacific countries and areas. The conference theme is Artificial Intelligence-Driven Industrial Engineering. APIEMS2026 calls for papers on Industrial Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Smart Manufacturing, Ergonomic/Human Factor, Production and Operation Management, Sustainability Development and other related topics in IE/MS. The accepted papers will/could be published by Springer and delivered for EI Indexing. Extended version of selected papers will be recommended for possible publications in special issues of SCI journals. Welcome your contribution and participation.

Previous APIEMS

APIEMS initiated from two conferences held in 1998, China-Japan Joint Conference on industrial engineering and management in Beijing, China, and Korea-Japan Joint Conference on industrial engineering and management in Taejon, Korea, produced some excellent results and the two were merged to form a single conference in the following year 1999, when the 2nd APIEMS conference was held at Kanazawa, Japan. Since then, the APIEMS has rapidly emerged as an important forum for exchange of ideas and information about latest developments in the field of industrial engineering and management society among professionals from Asia-Pacific countries, namely, Australia, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. APIEMS conferences serve not only as a forum for exchanging idea and information but also facilitates collaborations among delegates and participants from different countries, culture and institutions, besides providing the much needed exposure to new research efforts and findings.

Related Journal

IEMS has been launched in 2002 by the APIEMS (Asia Pacific Industrial Engineering and Management Systems Conference) and now it is an official journal of APIEMS and KIIE (Korean Institute of Industrial Engineers). IEMS is intended for reporting original quality works on industrial engineering and management systems. The journal publishes original works that have significant theoretical and academic values, novel industrial applications, and case studies. Every manuscript is strictly reviewed by two or more anonymous referees and final acceptance decision is made based on the review reports. The journal aims at speedy review and processing within 3 months and it will publish four issues per year.
Industrial Engineering and Management Systems (IEMS) covers all areas of industrial engineering and management sciences including but not limited to, applied statistics and data mining, business and information systems, computational intelligence and optimization, environment and energy, ergonomics and human factors, logistics and transportation, manufacturing systems, planning and scheduling, quality and reliability, supply chain management and inventory systems.
