Ranked #1 worldwide in Supply Chain by ScholarGPS and #1 in Operations Research by Standford/Elsevier ranking. Ranked #1 in German-Austrian-Switzerland Ranking of Top Scientists in Business and Management area. Chair of IFAC CC 5 “Cyber-Physical Manufacturing Systems”, Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Integrated Supply Management, Editor Annals of Operations Research, Associate Editor of International Journal of Production Research and OMEGA, guest editor and Editorial Board member in over 20 leading international journals including IISE Transactions and IJPE, to name a few.
This talk is devoted to supply chain viability and digital ecosystems. We will discuss adaptation-based principles of supply chain viability, design and implementation of digital technology for viable supply chains, and human-AI collaboration in digital twins and viability stress testing. Pilot implementations will be illustrated using anyLogistix supply chain simulation and optimization software, and use cases in industry. Future research directions will be outlined, especially focusing on cross-disciplinary collaboration between management, biology, ecology, and control engineering. |
Teodor Gabriel Crainic is Adjunct Professor of Operations Research, Transportation, and Logistics, School of Management, Université du Québec à Montréal, and Adjunct Professor of Operations Research, Department of Computer Science and Operations Research, Université de Montréal. He is also a senior scientist at CIRRELT, the Interuniversity Research Center for Enterprise Networks, Logistics, and Transportation. He received the 2006 Merit Award of the Canadian Operational Research Society and is a member of the Royal Society of Canada.
The research interests of Professor Crainic are in network, integer, and combinatorial optimization, meta-heuristics, and parallel computing applied to the planning and management of complex systems. Particularly in transportation and logistics. Major contributions targeted methods for national/regional planning, the design, scheduling, and operation management of consolidation-based carriers, intermodal and logistics networks, routing, scheduling, and city logistics, new business and organizational transportation and logistics models and systems, and planning of urban and inter-urban multimodal multi-stakeholder freight transportation systems.
