The idea and realization of the first OTO meetings began 28 years ago at the then Faculty of Electrical Engineering in Osijek with the participation of engineers from the Maintenance Society Osijek (DOO). Since then, the OTO has grown into a regional interdisciplinary scientific conference - organized from the first years in cooperation with the economy of the Slavonia-Baranja region, the Faculty of Agriculture and Faculty of Civil Engineering Osijek. In order to maintain continuity - and after the termination of the DOO - Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Information Technology Osijek (FERIT) has taken over the organization of this scientific conference; so they are - with the help of colleagues from other J.J. University colleges Strosmayer - Successfully held OTO 2017 and OTO 2018 (in Osijek) conferences that presented 56 papers that have undergone a double review by a Review Committee composed of scientists from five countries. Thus, a significant step forward in terms of organization and programming compared to the meetings of previous years, and the conference was given the status of an international scientific conference.

 

 

The concluding discussions of the Program and Organizing Committee of the OTO Conference (based on the presented papers and the opinions of the participants) indicated the need to continue the tradition of organizing the OTO Conference in other cities of the Slavonia-Baranja region with stronger representation of authors from the economy.

As the technology and maintenance organization are expanding from the industrial and agricultural production domain and to the maintenance of municipal infrastructure, it has been decided to take over the organization of OTO conferences by the think tank "Panon" - Institute for Strategic Studies Osijek - with the support of FERIT and the Faculty of Civil Engineering Osijek.

We look forward to continuing the successful collaboration of the manufacturing and service sectors with academics.
