ASCaNT'23

The International Workshop on Advanced Supply Chain and New Technologies (ASCaNT’23) will be held within the IEEE CiSt’2023 international congress the week of 16th - 22nd December 2023, Agadir - Essaouira, Morocco. 

Supply chain operations are continuously changing and evolving and managing demands and supplies is requiring new functional and technical attributes. Such a dynamic situation can be termed as VUCA, standing for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. In this context, the emergence of communication technologies and automation has shaped the supply chain paradigm, but it has also introduced new complexities and challenges.

The emergence of Industry 4.0 has also reshaped supply chain operations management by introducing new technologies and therefore created new opportunities for growth and advancement. However, this disruption presents challenges in terms of customization, adoption, and deployment, particularly in emerging economies. This workshop aims to discuss these latest trends and their impact on supply chain management and operations. We seek to generate valuable insights for practitioners, organizations, and enterprises in both emerging and developed markets.

  • Industrial internet of things
