DESCRIPTION:Dr. Yvonne Badulescu\, University of Applied Sciences Western 
 Switzerland (HES-SO)\nAbstract: In view of ever-changing manufacturing env
 ironment\, it is essential to better understand the role that human judgme
 nt plays in organisational decision-making for more efficient and sustaina
 ble operations. In this research seminar\, I intend to share my previous a
 nd current research projects in the following areas:\n\n	selection of sust
 ainable partnerships in the context of the Swiss manufacturing sector\;\n	
 inventory ordering behaviour and its impact on the supply chain sustainabi
 lity\;\n	taking advantage of big social data for demand forecasting and pr
 oduction planning\;\n	closed loop energy distribution network design for h
 ydrogen powered lightweight vehicles\; and\n	the digitalisation of the clo
 sed-loop clinical trials supply chain in reverse flow based on IoT and Blo
 ckchain.\n\nI will also share my vision of future research in the area of 
 smart process planning for sustainable manufacturing ecosystems.\n\nBiogra
