Abstract

The increasing pressure to integrate sustainability into industrial practices has led to the need for more efficient systems optimization models that address resource constraints. Traditional optimization models in industrial engineering have focused predominantly on maximizing efficiency and minimizing costs, often overlooking the long-term environmental and social impacts. This research explores the intersection of sustainable development and systems optimization under resource limitations, aiming to develop a comprehensive framework that balances economic, environmental, and social factors in industrial processes. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining literature review, case studies from various industrial sectors, and mathematical optimization models. The results demonstrate that the integration of resource constraints into industrial systems significantly improves both operational performance and sustainability outcomes. Industries, particularly in manufacturing and logistics, showed considerable improvements in production efficiency and reductions in energy consumption and material waste. The research concludes that resource-constrained optimization models can lead to more sustainable industrial practices without compromising economic efficiency. The findings provide a valuable contribution to the field of industrial engineering, offering a framework that can be applied across diverse sectors seeking to optimize their systems within the boundaries of available resources. Future studies should extend these models to include more complex industrial sectors and explore long-term sustainability impacts.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the gig economy on the livelihoods of creative-preneurs in Southeast Asia, with a focus on income stability, creative autonomy, and business sustainability. The research aims to analyze both the opportunities and structural challenges faced by creative-preneurs operating through digital platforms. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a quantitative survey of 100 creative-preneurs across multiple Southeast Asian countries with in-depth semi-structured interviews involving 20 selected participants. Quantitative data were analyzed using statistical correlation and regression techniques, while qualitative data were examined through thematic analysis. The findings reveal that while 72% of respondents experience significant income fluctuations and 65% report decreased job security, a majority benefit from increased creative autonomy and business growth. A significant positive relationship was found between creative autonomy and business expansion, whereas income instability negatively affected job satisfaction and career sustainability. The novelty of this research lies in its sector-specific and regional focus, addressing a gap in existing gig economy studies that largely overlook creative industries in Southeast Asia. The implications of this study extend beyond socio-economic analysis, contributing conceptually to physics-related modeling of complex systems and uncertainty, as well as to physics education by offering real-world contextual applications for data analysis, system dynamics, and interdisciplinary problem-solving within STEM-based learning frameworks.
