Proceedings of the XVII International Congress on Industrial Engineering and Related Fields – COINI 2024

Leading the Development of Industry 5.0

Abstract

The Proceedings of the XVII International Congress on Industrial Engineering and Related Fields (COINI 2024) compile the scientific and academic contributions presented at one of Argentina’s leading forums for knowledge exchange in Industrial Engineering. Organized by the National Technological University – La Plata Regional Faculty (UTN-FRLP) and the Argentine Association of Industrial Engineering and Related Degree Programs (AACINI), the congress was held under the theme “Leading the Development of Industry 5.0,” fostering reflection on the challenges of technological transformation, sustainability, innovation, and engineering education.

This volume brings together peer-reviewed scientific papers, technological developments, educational experiences, and knowledge-transfer initiatives contributed by researchers, academics, students, and professionals from universities and institutions across Argentina and abroad. The published works cover a broad range of topics, including operations and logistics, organizations and economics, engineering education, knowledge industries, product development and innovation, and environmental sustainability, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of contemporary Industrial Engineering.

These proceedings provide a valuable snapshot of current advances in the discipline and constitute an important reference for researchers, educators, students, and practitioners interested in innovation, digital transformation, competitiveness, and sustainable development. Moreover, they reaffirm the commitment of COINI and AACINI to the generation, dissemination, and transfer of scientific knowledge, strengthening collaboration among universities, industry, and public institutions to advance Industrial Engineering and its contribution to society.
