DESCRIPTION:Armand BABOLI\nBio: Associate Professor- Habilitation\nUnivers
 ité de Lyon\, INSA de Lyon\,\nDISP laboratory\,\nVilleurbanne-France\nI h
 ave the pleasure to announce the last seminar before my departure from EPF
 L to the University of Applied Sciences where I was appointed as full Prof
 essor in Supply chain and Operations:\nArmand BABOLI is currently an Assoc
 iate Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering and DISP Labora
 tory (Decision and Information for Production System) of INSA Lyon (Nation
 al Institute of Applied Sciences) at University de Lyon\, France. He recei
 ved his Habilitation to Supervise Research (HDR)\, defended in 2013 at INS
 A 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 f
 rom Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble and his B. Sc. degrees in 
 Industrial Engineering in 1988 from Iranian University of Science and Tech
 nology in Tehran\, Iran\nHis current researches focus in the one hand\, on
  supply chain management (networks configuration\, organization and coordi
 nation) under uncertainty and in the other hand\, on factory design (facil
 ities layout planning) and more specifically\, on dynamic cellular manufac
 turing system and intelligent manufacturing system with mobile robots.\nSu
 pply chain management for short shelf life items became more and more comp
 lex. Particularly\, due to great request of industry to considering severa
 l kinds of uncertainty (as demand\, lead-time\, capacity\, operation time\
 , etc.) in the one hand\, and social and environmental criteria and constr
 aints (agronomy\, team working\, motivation of workers\, innovation\, as w
 ell as GHG emission\, noise\, waste\, etc.) in the other hand\, have gener
 ated new challenges for researcher in industrial engineering and operation
  management field. Moreover\; the necessity to study the problem simultane
 ously on two decision levels (strategic and tactic or tactic and operation
 al levels problems) make the problem even more complex.\nIn this context\,
  some challenges in our recent research projects\, specifically two real c
 ase for downstream pharmaceutical supply chain and for food industry in th
 eir strategic\, tactic and operational decision level\, as well as the dif
 ficulty in mathematical modelling and resolution approaches for these kind
 s of products will be presented.
