OR41
National Conference of Operational Research Society
Pollock Halls, University of Edinburgh
September 14-16 1999
The UK Operational Research Society conference will be held this
year in Edinburgh just two months after the Scottish parliament
opens there, and we are sure there will be as much debate and
new ideas floated in the former as the latter.
The plenary speakers include
John Birge (President-Elect of INFORMS)
David Quarmby (British Tourist Authority)
Gene Woolsey (Colorado School of Mining)
David Begg (Robert Gordon University and advisor to John Prescott)
Stein Wallace (University of Trondheim)
Yves Smeers (CORE)
Whether you wish to present a paper or simply learn what others are
doing, the streams at OR41 provide a variety of highly relevant topics.
