Workshop Aim

The Workshop offers the possibility to present results and critical issues concerning processes design and operations management in food industry using Modeling and Simulation as methodological approach. We welcome high-quality, original scientific contributions and will consider them for publication. The International Program Committee will accept two types of camera-ready papers: extended paper (10 pages, 2 columns); regular paper (6 pages, 2 columns). Please refer to the on line authors instruction section.

Submission system and registration procedure

Detailed information’s on the submission system and the registration procedures are available on the official conference website at http://www.msc-les.org/conf/foodops2018/.
