Jointly organized by the Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische Besliskunde (LNMB) and the Nederlands Genootschap Besliskunde (NGB), Conference Center “De Werelt”, in Lunteren, on January 17, 2002 The Landelijk Netwerk Mathematische Besliskunde (LNMB) and the Nederlands Genootschap voor Besliskunde (NGB) jointly organize the one-day seminar “Capacity management – how operations research models support decision makers”, in Conference Center “De Werelt” in Lunteren, on January 17, 2002. The seminar is the fourth in a series of annual seminars, following the previous successful seminars on “Operations Research & Enterprise Resource Planning” (1999), “Operations Research in Financial Management” (2000) and “E-commerce & Operations Research” (2001). Capacities are playing a dominant role in many issues in the “spot-light” of our society. Examples are in health care, with emotional debates in the Dutch parliament on the capacity of hospitals and medical specialist; in transport and mobility, with seemingly never ending discussions around Schiphol Airport, the Dutch Railways, Rotterdam harbor, and our highway system; in telecom and IT, with discussions on the capacity and availability of the electronic highways. Finally, in our current economic climate the capacity of the workforce is a hot-item on the agenda of top-management and labor unions. The speakers at our seminar support policy and/or decision makers in health care, mobility/traffic, telecom, and workforce planning. They do so, by building and solving operations research models, which enable to generate and compare different solutions to capacity problems. Their presentations are all about recent case studies. The conference language is English. To participate at the seminar, please go to Registration Seminar and send the form before January 8, 2002. The conference fee is 75 Euro for LNMB and NGB members, and 125 Euro for others. You will receive an invoice after your registration form has been received. The conference fee covers lunch, coffee, tea, and the drinks during the reception. SEMINAR PROGRAM
