Our goals

The primary goal of the Technical Committee on Intelligent Green Production Systems (IGPS) is to be a center of excellence in the world on green production systems engineering and to act as an active organ within SMCS that ties process and systems engineering, and computational intelligence techniques to provide green energy, product, service, and production systems. IGPS brings together specialists from interdisciplinary fields to investigate and realize environmentally benign and safer production systems, with less impact on human, while maintaining the limited natural resources and environmental sustainable development. IGPS will provide basis for the exchange of information and resources among the diverse professionals and communities and enable interactions among them.

What we are doing

  • Organize workgroups/workshops on Green Hybrid Energy Systems.
  • Organize educational and certification programs on Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE); Green Supply Chain Management, and Environmental Management.
  • Organize workgroup discussions on Green Supply Chain with industry and student members, as an event of SMCS Hiroshima Chapter, 2006-2008.
  • Organizing international workshops on computational intelligence applications on Green Production Systems.
  • Organize sessions in the international conferences of SMCS (next is in Montreal 2007) on Intelligent Green Production Systems.

Why don't you join us?

Our TC is open for every specialist, researcher, professional, and student who is working in the field of sustainable development via intelligent green production systems. When you join us, you will:

  • Interact with experts in this area of IGPS.
  • Participate in interesting conferences and workshops.
  • Propose new education programs for green production systems.
  • Exchange research ideas and share research resources.
  • Mobilize collaborative industrial projects.

Collaborate with industrial experts to conduct international educational courses and professional certification programs on HSE management systems, computer-aided process safety, intelligent green supply chain management systems, intelligent green energy management systems, intelligent environmental management systems, and computer-aided sustainable development. Current sponsors and collaborators include GPROSYS Corp. (www.gprosys.com).
