Ladies and Gentlemen,
as a past president of the Austrian Society of Operations Research it is my honour to invite you to the
International Conference on Operations Research
taking place in Klagenfurt, Austria/Europe from 2 Sept. to 5 Sept. 2002. The conference is organized by the Austrian, the German and the Swiss Society of Operations Research. The conference will cover applications and theory of OR by a number of different sessions taking into account mainly planning applications of - the public administration, of - the industries, and of - the sciences. A planning process, meeting the company's overall goals, is of special importance today i.e. especially in times of small recources and restrictive budgets it is absolutely necessary to plan them appropriately. This main goal of this conference is to support the solution of these problems by mathematical models and adjacent solvers to answer questions concerning e.g. - forecasting, - operational and strategic planning - risk-estimation in uncertain planning situations. Applications of existing and upcoming liberalized energy markets (electricity, gas, district-heating, water, of the model based meteorology, of the logistics, of traffic and transport (airline planning, urban bus system scheduling, emty freight car scheduling in railway systems), of the medicine and health care area or of the environment will be main areas of interest to be covered by the conference among other application oriented or theoretical problems.
For further information, please visite the conference's homepage http://www.uni-klu.ac.at/or2002/ or contact directly the conference's organizing committee via E-Mail: or2002@uni-klu.ac.at
