Jointly organized by the Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische Besliskunde
(LNMB) and the Nederlands Genootschap Besliskunde (NGB), Conference Center
“De Werelt”, in Lunteren, on January 16, 2003
The Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische Besliskunde (LNMB) and the Nederlands Genootschap voor Besliskunde (NGB) jointly organize the one-day seminar “New developments in Operations Research software”, in Conference Center “De Werelt” in Lunteren, on January 16, 2003. The seminar is the fifth in a series of annual seminars, following the previous successful seminars on “Operations Research ? Enterprise Resource Planning” (1999), “Operations Research in Financial Management” (2000), “E-commerce ? Operations Research” (2001) and “Capacity management – How operations research models support decision makers” (2002).
Many Operations Research practitioners use software to answer the questions of their clients or their own research questions. Examples are simulation software for questions where uncertainty plays a large role, and (mathematical) modeling software when one can use a more deterministic view of the world.
Most speakers at our seminar come from leading edge operations software
suppliers who all have shown to have a high degree of innovation in their
software. They can give you a clear view on what recent and future developments
in their software will be. This view is important for all practitioners
to get an idea how it becomes possible to develop:
- models faster,
- faster models,
- more complex models,
- more reliable models,
- better maintainable models,
- more robust models,
- better integrated simulation/optimization models,
- etc.
in the near future.
The conference language is English. To participate at the seminar, please
go to Registration Seminar and send
the form before January 5, 2003. The conference fee is 75 Euro for
