Armand BABOLI Bio: Associate Professor- Habilitation Université de Lyon, INSA de Lyon, DISP laboratory, Villeurbanne-France I have the pleasure to announce the last seminar before my departure from EPFL to the University of Applied Sciences where I was appointed as full Professor in Supply chain and Operations: Armand BABOLI is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering and DISP Laboratory (Decision and Information for Production System) of INSA Lyon (National Institute of Applied Sciences) at University de Lyon, France. He received his Habilitation to Supervise Research (HDR), defended in 2013 at INSA de Lyon – University of Lyon 1. He received his M. Sc. (DEA) and Ph. D. degrees both in Industrial Engineering, respectively in 1993 and 1999 from Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble and his B. Sc. degrees in Industrial Engineering in 1988 from Iranian University of Science and Technology in Tehran, Iran His current researches focus in the one hand, on supply chain management (networks configuration, organization and coordination) under uncertainty and in the other hand, on factory design (facilities layout planning) and more specifically, on dynamic cellular manufacturing system and intelligent manufacturing system with mobile robots. |

Supply chain management for short shelf life items became more and more complex. Particularly, due to great request of industry to considering several kinds of uncertainty (as demand, lead-time, capacity, operation time, etc.) in the one hand, and social and environmental criteria and constraints (agronomy, team working, motivation of workers, innovation, as well as GHG emission, noise, waste, etc.) in the other hand, have generated new challenges for researcher in industrial engineering and operation management field. Moreover; the necessity to study the problem simultaneously on two decision levels (strategic and tactic or tactic and operational levels problems) make the problem even more complex.
In this context, some challenges in our recent research projects, specifically two real case for downstream pharmaceutical supply chain and for food industry in their strategic, tactic and operational decision level, as well as the difficulty in mathematical modelling and resolution approaches for these kinds of products will be presented.
