We have 16 Invited Tracks and 77 Invited Sessions, we also wait for a large number of regular submissions. https://blog.hwr-berlin.de/mim2019/invited-sessions/ If you are interested in a presentation at an invited session/track, please use the session/track code available on the above Web page. The code will allow you to submit it as an "*Invited Session Paper*". Otherwise, please submit your paper as a "*Contributed Paper*" (regular paper). The conference is co-sponsored by IFIP, IISE, GOR, IFORS, and INFORMS. The proceedings will be published by *Elsevier* in /IFAC-PaperOnline/: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/ifac-papersonline/ and indexed in *Science direct*, *Scopus* and *Web of Scienc**e*. Usually there are about 500 to 600 attendees. IFAC journals and several other journals in /Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Operations Research and Management Science/ will select papers for post-conference publications. In particular, the /International Journal of Production Research/ (Taylor & Francis) supports strongly the conference and so will select a large number of papers for publication of their extended versions after the conference.Please submit your papers via the submission site: https://ifac.papercept.net/conferences/scripts/start.pl The deadline for submissions is *January 5th 2019*. See you next year in Berlin at MIM 2019.
