The conference was organized by the Department of Planning and Regional Development (University of Thessaly), the Sector of Industrial Manage- ment and Operations Research (School of Mechanical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens), the De- partment of Mechanical Engineering (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki), the Food Technology Department (Techno- logical Educational Institute of Thessaloniki) and the Department of Environmental Sciences (German Research Center for Environmental Health). An international board of valued scientists comprised its scientific committee. Regarding the venue of the conference, Mykonos is one of the best-known Greek islands, acclaimed both for its cosmopolitan environment and its exquisite natural beauty.
