LUNTEREN 2003
Twenty-eighth conference on
The mathematics of operations research
Organized by LNMB
(Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische Besliskunde)
January 14-16, 2003
Conference Center "De Werelt",
Lunteren, The Netherlands
Annual meeting of Dutch senior and junior researchers
in the Mathematics of Operations Research.
The program offers high-quality research and applications
and should appeal to both academic researchers
and to management consultants in trade and industry.
The conference is sponsored by the Gebiedsbestuur Exacte
Wetenschappen (NWO), the Thomas Stieltjes Institute for Mathematics and
the Mathematical Research Institute (MRI).
