Special Issue of the 2014 (5th) International Conference on Engineering, Project, and Production Management

Abstract

This issue includes five papers, four of which were selected from the 2014 (5th) International Conference on Engineering, Project, and Production Management (EPPM2014) held in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, and three of which won the EPPM2014 Excellent Paper Award. The selection was conducted by the Scientific Committee Chair through a two-stage double-blind review. To ensure paper quality, the maximum number of awards was limited to 5% of the total papers submitted to the conference. These Excellent Paper Awards were announced at the Gala Dinner, EPPM2014. To further ensure the quality of these papers, the authors were requested to expend their length prior to re-evaluation from initial screening through double-blind reviews to satisfactory amendments.
