Nine famous scholars in logistics, information technology, service science and industrial security were invited to make keynote speeches. Professor James M. Tien, Minister of foreign affairs of the US Academy of engineering and academician of the US Academy of engineering, made a report entitled "Mass Customization: going third industrial revolution". It reviewed the characteristics of the three industrial revolutions from the perspective of products, services and the integration of the two. He believed that due to the emergence of real-time decision-making technology, artificial intelligence, Internet, mobile network and advanced digital technology, the integration of mass customization products and services is the development direction of future industrial revolution, and new moral problems should be avoided as far as possible; the report title of Professor Michael C. Fu of University of Maryland is "Monte Carlo and machine learning: from alphago" The report reviews the development of alphago and points out that the core algorithm of alphago is Monte Carlo tree search algorithm. On this basis, it further expounds the application of this algorithm in Markov decision making and alpha zero and the future research direction. The information behind thick data for the report discusses the application and progress of medical big data. It thinks that it is not enough to pay attention to the data in electronic medical records, but also needs to pay attention to the data of patients' daily life and health management, and puts forward the methods to obtain the relevant data. The report title of Pro.LIU Kecheng of University of reading is "digital business ecosystem and organizational". The report discusses practical and theoretical issues of digital business ecology, as well as challenges for future research. Professor Gábor Bohács, Budapest University of economics and technology, made a report entitled "increasing efficiency of PLC based material flow control systems using simulation". The concept, theory and method of PLC control system and its application in material management were discussed. Pro.Chengri Ding's report, entitled "the development of megacities in the world and its implications to China's rapid urbanization", discusses the development process and status quo of mega cities in the world and its implications for China's urbanization. Pro.YU Le'an of Beijing University of chemical technology made a report entitled "data train driven big data credit classification for credit services", and proposed a data feature driven framework for credit risk classification. The title of Pro.ZENG Jianqiu's report is "information and OAAs". The report describes the impact and innovation of 5G technology on human life, service innovation and service operation, and points out the new thinking.
