EVENT: IFAC dedicates session to ML, simulation and optimization for Supply Chain decision-making
The session covers reinforcement learning for S&OP, AI-generated simulation models, AMR virtual commissioning and calibrated logistics simulation, putting decision models beneath the current agent-interface narrative.
The Dataleo angle
Much of the serious innovation remains in the decision models underneath the interface: simulation, optimization and policy learning. The limitation is transfer: mathematically strong policies are useful only if their model assumptions survive real planning and execution conditions.
