Synopsis

This book is the Proceedings of Selected Papers from the 1st International Conference on Industrial and Systems Engineering (ICISE 2026) held on April 16–17, 2026, in Tirana, Albania. It is our great pleasure to present this volume, which brings together innovative research, original studies, and insightful analyses reflecting the dedication and scholarly rigor of our contributors. ICISE 2026 aims to bridge theory and practice, with a strong emphasis on sustainability, digital transformation, and systems thinking. The conference serves as a platform for both established experts and emerging researchers from around the world, fostering the exchange of knowledge and diverse perspectives across the fields of industrial and systems engineering. Organized by the Albanian Mechanical Engineering Association, the conference transcends geographical and disciplinary boundaries, creating a global forum for dialogue on the challenges and opportunities shaping modern industry and society. As issues related to development, employment, education, research, and business become increasingly interconnected, the conference provides an opportunity to share experiences and insights from a wide range of institutional and national contexts.
