The Human-Tech Harmony

This book explores how the human-centric approach from industry 5.0 can reshape the industrial manufacturing and logistics system. From theoretical foundations to practical applications and ethical challenges, this book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the dynamic interplay between human and technology. It explores emerging concepts and real-world case studies from manufacturing and logistics systems. Separate chapters are devoted to underpin the human-centered industrial transformation, to discuss the empirical interactions between technology, sustainability, resilience and well-being in different supply chains, and to present ethical frameworks for the human intelligent systems. This book equips researchers, graduate students and decisions makers with solid conceptual background and practical use cases to successfully adopt advanced technologies while sustaining human performance and promoting operational excellence.
