CALL FOR PAPERS
New trends on Information and Communication Technologies for Resource
Management
http://roprin.org/workshop/IJHCITP/index.html
OVERVIEW
Information and Communication Technologies for resources management in
production environments have become in key components of any enterprise
organization, offering them remarkable impacts on production operations in
terms
of both productivity and efficiency. For this reason, new ways of
management of
production environments through Information and Communication Technologies
are emerging in order to improve the quality of products and services,
optimize
production process times, and serve as support in decision-making, among
other
benefits. From this perspective, Information Technologies (IT) are playing
an
increasingly crucial role in the industry to face the challenges of an
increasingly
competitive market, which in turn is driving research into finding ever
better
technological solutions.
The emergence of the new trends on Information and Communication
Technologies and its gradual adoption by industries has favored the
generation of
increasingly efficient production systems than with the Internet of Things
(IoT),
and new Information and Communication Technologies have given rise to the
socalled
“Industry 4.0”. However, while the very nature of the Information and
Communication Technologies offers promising solutions that can potentially
transform the resource management in production environments, the adoption
and implementation of this type of systems is still hindered by issues,
which are
both technical as well interdisciplinary.
Under this context, the Information and Communication Technologies drive
improvements for the resource management in production environments of the
organizations, offering them several benefits such as: standard data models
for
Knowledge representation, ease the interoperability and integration among
systems
as well as development of knowledge-based systems, recommender systems and
decision support systems, to mention but a few.
In the production environments domain, the resource management is becoming
critical. From decision support systems for real-time order management in
production
environments, to increasing energy efficiency in such environments, since
there is an
increasing need of monitoring, planning, data analytics, knowledge
management,
integration and interoperability among systems; as well as the generation of
recommendations as alternatives to solve concurrent problems in
organizations.
Moreover, due to the huge amount of information resources which must be
managed,
it seems clear the need of researching and develop Information and
Communication
Technologies with high levels of security, trust, quality and speed. That
is why, some
efforts have been done in order to the resource management in production
environments.
Taking into account the emerging necessity of an intelligent, distributed
and selfaware
environment for resource management, this special issue looks for
collecting the main approaches for the research and development of
Information
systems in the production environments domain, as well as the principal
methods, techniques and standards for leveraging the Information and
Communication Technologies as a key-driver of the organizational growth as
part of emerging Industry 4.0.
The aim of this Special Issue is to investigate trends among innovative and
highquality
research regarding the implementation of conceptual frameworks,
strategies, techniques, methodologies, informatics platforms and models
applying new perspectives for developing Information and Communication
Systems for resource management.
Possible topics for research papers include, but are not limited to, the
following topics:
- Human resource management systems
- Intelligent data analysis
- Operations management
- ICT in project management
- ICT in human resource management applied to industry
- Recruiting/Learning management
- Web-Based and Mobile Resources Management Systems
- Data visualization and analytics
- Resource Automation processes
- Enterprise Resource Management
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Papers submitted must not have been previously published or be under
consideration for publication in other journals, though they may represent
significant extensions of prior work. All submitted papers will undergo a
rigorous peer-review process (with at least two reviewers) that will
consider programmatic relevance, scientific quality, significance,
originality, style and clarity. The acceptance process will focus on papers
that address original scientific contributions in the form of theoretical
and experimental research and
case studies applying new trends on Information and Communication
Technologies for resource management in production environments. Also, an
abstract submission is mandatory to allow editors the assignment of the
most suitable reviewers for each paper. Thus, authors willing to submit a
paper to this Special Issue must contact the Lead Guest Editor before
January 15, 2018 via email, specifying the title of the paper, the type of
submission (regular paper or work in progress), and including the paper’s
abstract.
Before submitting a paper, authors must carefully read over the journal’s
Author Guidelines. Prospective authors should send an electronic copy of
their complete manuscript via email with the subject “IJHCITP Submission”
to the Lead Guest Editor according to the following timeline:
