Call for Papers

The Transportation and Logistics Track invites cutting-edge research papers in broad domains of transportation (both passenger and freight transportation, across modes), logistics, supply chain management, warehousing, order-fulfilment and allied areas. Papers should use new and emerging data and methodologies to analyse or solve critical contemporary as well as futuristic transportation and logistics problems faced by industry and government. The papers should contribute to scholarship, practice, and policymaking in India and globally. It is expected that presented papers will generate novel ideas and stimulate productive discussions, and will have the potential for getting published in leading academic journals. This track will contribute to academia-industry and academia-government knowledge exchange, leading to improvements in the efficiency of multi-modal transportation systems and supply chain logistics, thereby promoting economic growth and fostering sustainable development.
