Our heartiest welcome to IEEE ICALT 2019, the 7th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Logistics and Transport taking place in Marrakech, Morocco. With this fifth edition, the conference is held for the first time in Morocco after successful editions in Tunisia 2011 and 2013, France 2014, Poland 2016 and Indonesia 2017. The conference aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss issues, challenges and future directions, share their R&D findings and experiences in the following areas: - Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) - Logistics & Supply Chain Management (LSCM) - Optimization and Logistics Challenges (OLC) - Industrial Engineering (IE) - Logistics 4.0 and Smart Supply Chain (LSSC) We are pleased to announce that we have received 120 submissions. Only 50 papers (41%) were accepted for oral presentations. Accepted papers are characterized by a high scientific quality. Each paper was reviewed by at least three members of the program committee, which consisted of About 140 scientists from 22 countries. Contributions were from 14 different countries: Bulgaria, Algeria, France, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Morocco, Tunisia, United Kingdom, USA, Denmark, United Arab Emirates, and South Korea. The conference has gathered the most outstanding scientists and practitioners in all areas of Logistics, Transport, and their applications. Research in this area comprises a wide spectrum of directions, both theoretical and practical, with a perspective which aims to be useful both to people in the academia and in the industry. The conference reflects all these aspects in detail and offers the possibility of discussing and comparing the latest results obtained by researchers all over the world. This makes the ICALT a major international forum for researchers, practitioners, policy makers, industries, and all people who are interested in the latest developments both of research and application of logistics and transport. The conference program features plenary lectures, regular sessions, special sessions, and social meeting that, taken together, allow leading researchers the opportunity not only to present their independent research but consider new avenues and research directions that will become the future of the field of logistics and transport. We would like to address special thanks to the technical program committees and the reviewers for their outstanding contribution in reviewing the papers and ensuring an outstanding quality for the conference. Our sincere thanks to our invited three distinguished keynote speakers, session chairs, and all people who coordinated and organized the operating aspects of the conference. Last, but not least, we like to really thank all authors and attendees: without their highly valuable contributions and presence no conference can be truly successful.
