1st EAI International Conference on Technology and Supply Chain Management

SCOPE The 1st EAI International Conference on Technology and Supply Chain Management (EAI TSCM 2026) brings together researchers, practitioners, and policy makers to advance the design, deployment, and governance of technologies across end-to-end supply chains. We welcome theoretical, empirical, design-science, and industry case papers that push the frontier of efficiency, transparency, sustainability, and resilience.

TOPICS

• AI & Analytics: demand forecasting, optimization, simulation, causal inference, prescriptive analytics, Machine Learning Operations (Mops) for supply chains
• IoT, Sensors & Edge: real-time tracking, condition monitoring, digital twins, cyber-physical systems 
• Data Standards & Interoperability: GS1, EDI/EDIFACT, APIs, knowledge graphs, data spaces, semantics
• Blockchain & Digital Identity: Provenance, traceability, EUDR/CBAM compliance, verifiable credentials, smart contracts
• Cloud, Platforms & Automation: ERP/WMS/TMS, microservices, RPA, autonomous warehousing, and mobility 
• Efficiency and effectiveness in operations processes 
• Lean systems for supply chain management: lean in applications of technologies in the supply chain
• Risk & Resilience: disruption of analytics, preparedness, continuity planning, stress testing 
• Supply chain: technologies to enhance supply chain strategies; supply chain strategies for resilience and sustainability 
• Sustainability & ESG: carbon accounting, circular economy, reverse logistics, green routing, energy-aware operations 
• Security & Privacy: cybersecurity, PETs (FL/DP/SMC), data governance, and ethics 
• Sector Applications: healthcare & pharma, food & agriculture, retail, manufacturing, ports & logistics, energy 
• Maritime & Ports: IMO digitalization, electronic bills of lading (eBL), port community systems, vessel/terminal optimization
