The Global Joint Conference on Industrial Engineering and Its Application Areas (GJCIE) 2016 is composed of three co-located conferences: the 1st Global Conference on Industrial Engineering (GCIE), the 3rd Global Conference on Engineering and Technology Management (GCETM), and the 2nd Global Conference on Healthcare Systems Engineering and Management (GCHSEM). The GGJCIE 2016 will be an internationally renowned forum for researchers, practitioners, and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences, and challenges in the field of industrial engineering. It will bring together experts from academia and industry to exchange the latest research results and trends, and their practical applications in the aforementioned areas of industrial engineering. This will be accomplished through the following three modes of communication: keynote presentations, parallel sessions, and poster sessions.
