Keynotes Announcement
Important announcement: Conference Program uploaded(New!!)
Dear colleagues,
Thank you very much for cooperating and participating in the 2022 World P&OM online Conference.
We have made the conference program as follows. Due to technical reasons it would be very difficult to introduce changes.
Conference Programs
– Program Overview
– Program 0823
– Program 0824
– Program 0825
In relation to presentations, remember that the World P&OM 2022 is an online live Conference, where presenters are asked to do live presentations allowing an active exchange with attendants.
Although this is an option clearly not desired by the Organization, if for any specific and strong reason you could not present your paper in a live format, please let us know in time and we could allow you to do a pre-recorded presentation (on demand). In this case, you should upload your video presentation (15 minutes length) on the platform from August 10th to 17th. The Zoom operator will play your video on time during your session.
The Organization will record all Conference presentations (including keynote sessions). These recorded presentations, as well as the pre-recorded ones for on demand presentations, will be made accessible to all participants to be watched for 4 weeks after the Conference (except in cases where the authors express their disagreement in this regard).
Even for pre-recorded presentations (on demand), you can use the “Comment” function to ask and answer questions before and after the presentation. This period is available for four weeks after the conference. If there are overlapping presentations and you were unable to attend a session online, you can watch the video later and make comments or ask questions. We encourage you to make the most of the comment function.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
Program Committee, The 6th World Conference on Production and Operations Management – P&OM Nara 2022 (2020)
Important announcement: Change in the 6th World P&OM Conference format
With deep regret we must inform you that the World P&OM Organizers have decided to hold the conference in a fully on-line format. This has been a very difficult decision, reached after extensive and careful research on the feasibility of in-person, or a hybrid format as our preferred alternative.
In addition to stringent border requirements including visa, an ERFS (Entrants, Returnees Follow-up System) certificate and the risk of various possible quarantine periods, there are also burdensome in-person conference site requirements for the organizers in case a participant tests positive for Covid-19. Whilst globally the threat of the Covid-19 pandemic is receding, it is unfortunate that in Japan, the more the border restrictions are relaxed, the more the social obligations and responsibilities of containing Covid-19 are shifted to the official organization receiving foreign visitors to Japan, in our case our conference organization. To make matters worse, researchers in some countries still cannot enter Japan, and some Japanese university and industry participants including some of our fellow organizers are still not allowed to attend conferences in-person.
In light of these circumstances, with regret we have decided that a fully on-line conference is the only feasible and safe format for our World P&OM community. Although you may share our disappointment, rest assured that we have done everything we could to maintain the in-person tradition of the World P&OM Conferences. Unfortunately, it has not been possible. We hope that a P&OM in-person event in Japan will be possible in the not-too-distant future.
We greatly appreciate your understanding of this decision and your continued support for another successful World P&OM Conference. Our on-line conference format will combine on-line keynote speeches and research presentations, on-demand pre-recorded presentations, and on-line Q&A sessions along with on-line networking. Subject to the author’s consent, access to pre-recorded conference presentation videos will be available for one month after the Conference.
