More DescriptionThis Proceedings contains the papers presented at the 2nd IFAC Conference on Management and Control of Production and Logistics held in Grenoble, France, on 5-8 July, 2000. Altogether over 200 papers are presented, covering recent developments in all areas of manufacturing and production systems and management. There are papers dealing with modelling tools and management, decision-making and control techniques. Such techniques, benefiting from the progress made in artificial intelligence, information and computer sciences, are now being implemented widely in new organisational structures. The wide-ranging application areas covered by this Proceedings include industrial automation, robotics and production systems, as well as management of the product, process and service life cycle with a view to sustainable development. The place of the human as operator, executor and decision-maker is reinforced as part of the robust control of systems subject to disturbances or fluctuations in their environment.
