The 8th International Heinz Nixdorf Symposium takes place on April 21-22, 2010. Entitled “Changing Paradigms: Advanced Manufacturing and Sustainable Logistics” new trends and strategies in manufacturing and logistics are of main interest during this prime event of the Heinz Nixdorf Institute. It is aimed at experts from business and science, who occupy themselves with the planning and development of manufacturing and logistics systems and thereby also consider changing restrictions, limitations, and demand for sustainability.

On April 21, distinguished professors and senior executives from large manufacturing and logistics companies will deliver invited speeches. On April 22, contributions are invited from both researchers and practitioners to any of the following tracks: Production Logistics, Industrial Engineering, Operations Research Techniques, Simulation, or Humanitarian Logistics. Contributions to the tracks of the second day of the conference can be submitted until November 15, 2009. All accepted contributions will be published in the series “Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing” (LNBIP) of the Springer publishing company.
