LUNTEREN 2008
33rd
conference
on
The
mathematics of
operations research
Organized by LNMB
(Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische
Besliskunde)
January 15 - 17, 2008
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).
