^{3rd International Conference and Exhibition on} Industrial Engineering November 14-15, 2016 Dubai

Industrial Manufacturing Engineering: Depending on the subspecialties involved, industrial engineering may also overlap with manufacturing engineering depending upon the point of view of user. It is a very broad area which includes the design and development of products. The manufacturing engineering discipline has very strong overlaps with material management, operations management and Automation. The manufacturing processes are realized with effective implementation of automation. The application of automation in a factory leads to higher consistency and quality, reduction of lead times, simplification of production, reduced handling, improved work flow, and improved worker morale. On other hand Operation Management is an important area which is responsible for designing and controlling the production in industries. It involves the responsibility of ensuring that business operations are efficient in terms of using as few resources as needed, and effective in terms of meeting customer requirements. It is anxious with managing the process that converts the input i.e. (raw materials) into output (new product).

Healthcare engineering: Healthcare Engineering Summit and Management approach the health care systems and other constructs affecting health and safety as complex systems, it identifies and applies engineering design and analysis principles in such areas. The scope of healthcare management engineering (ME) can broadly be defined as developing managerial decisions for efficient allocation of material, human and financial resources needed for delivery of high-quality care using various mathematical and computer simulation methods. The term “management engineering” is sometimes substituted by other near-equivalent terms such as “operations research,” “system engineering,” “industrial engineering,” “management science” or “operations management.”

Ergonomics: Human factors & Ergonomics is a scientific principle concerned with understanding of interaction between human and the equipment’s, material handling in the work place, designing, evaluation & product modelling and manufacturing applications. Derived from the Greek ergon (work) and nomos (laws) to denote the science of work, ergonomics is a systems-oriented discipline which now extends across all aspects of human activity.  Practicing ergonomists must have a broad understanding of the full scope of the discipline.  That is, ergonomics promotes a holistic approach in which considerations of physical ergonomics, cognitive, social, organizational ergonomics, environmental and other relevant factors are taken into account.  Ergonomists often work in particular economic sectors or application domains.  Application domains are not mutually exclusive and they evolve constantly; new ones are created and old ones take on new perspectives. 

Robotics is the application of mechatronics and automation to create robots, which are often used in manufacturing to perform tasks that are dangerous, unpleasant, or repetitive. These robots may be of any shape and size, but all are preprogrammed and interact physically with the world. To create a robot, an engineer typically employs Dynamics and Kinematics, manipulation, power source, sensing, legged locomotion and Interaction. Robots allow performing the activities that are not able to do by humans and to ensure better quality in production. Many industries employ assembly lines of robots, and some factories are so robotized that they can run by themselves.

Supply chain management & logistics: Production and logistics gets right to the heart of the supply chain, from sourcing raw materials to delivering finished products to customers. Modern production and logistics methods are growing ever more complex. In Business Process, you will apply advanced software tools for enterprise resource planning and integer linear programming problems, capacity analysis of production systems, distribution planning and vehicle routing.

Environment Impact on Industrial Engineering: Designing a new process to manufacture a certain product a certain operation requires careful planning and resources. Incorporating industrial engineers into the process design to create an Ecologically Sustainable Organization (ESO) will benefit the business in reducing the amount of waste that acts as a by-product of the system. This ideal state can be reached by limiting energy use and materials through product redesign, using renewable materials.

Engineering economics: It involves formulating, estimating, and evaluating the economic outcomes and economic status when alternatives to accomplish a defined purpose are available. Some other topics that may be addressed in engineering economics are Value Engineering, Cost Engineering update, Tax Credits, and Investment Engineering.

Construction Management: It is aimed at meeting a client's requirement in order to produce a functionally and financially viable project. Construction of any industry, residence depends upon several factors like Methods & technology, Sustainable Development, Safety Management, project Scheduling and Cost Controlling.

Operations Management deals with the design and management of products, processes, services and supply chains. It considers the acquisition, development, and utilization of resources that firms need to deliver the goods and services their clients want. The purvey of OM ranges from strategic to tactical and operational levels. Representative strategic issues include determining the size and location of manufacturing plants, deciding the structure of service or telecommunications networks, and designing technology supply chains. Tactical issues include plant layout and structure, project management methods, and equipment selection and replacement. Operational issues include production scheduling and control, inventory management, quality control and inspection, traffic and materials handling, and equipment maintenance policies.
