Dear locators, The submission deadline for the TSL 2024 Workshop, to be held in Nantes (France) from September 25 to 27, 2024, has been extended to April 15, 2024. The main theme is Optimizing Transportation and Logistics under Uncertainty. Submission related to facility location are more than welcome. https://tsl2024.sciencesconf.org/ We will be delighted to welcome Ola Jabali (Politecnico Milano) for a plenary session, and are preparing a second plenary session. As a prelude to the Workshop, we are also offering a 3-day Doctoral School from September 22 to 24, with lectures prepared by Mike Hewitt (Loyola University Chicago) and Barrett Thomas (University of Iowa). Registration will open soon. https://tsldoc2024.sciencesconf.org/ We look forward to seeing you in Nantes at the end of September. ------------------------------ The LS2N Laboratory, IMT Atlantique and CRC Services, are pleased to announce the call for the *12th INFORMS Transportation Science and Logistics Society Workshop (TSL 2024). * The workshop will be held in Nantes, France, from *September 25 to 27*. The main theme of the workshop is: *Optimizing Transportation and Logistics under Uncertainty * In the ever evolving world of transportation and logistics, there is a growing need to optimize operations under uncertainty. Decision makers are faced with variable transit times, volatile demand volumes, and fluctuating resource availability. This increases their need for algorithms that can deal with uncertainty. We invite submissions that enrich the scientific literature on optimizing transportation and logistics systems in uncertain environments. This includes, but is not limited to contributions in the following areas: - stochastic optimization, - robust optimization, - simulation-based optimization - dynamic models, - time-dependent models, - data-driven optimization, - uncertainty modeling. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS Researchers interested in giving a presentation are invited to submit an abstract of no more than two pages. Acceptance of an abstract will be based on both the quality of the research and its appropriateness to the theme of the workshop. Please note that the TSL Workshop will be preceded by a *Doctoral School *on the same topic. IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission deadline: /April 15, 2024 /Notification of acceptance:/ May, 31, 2024 /Early bird registration: / July 11, 2024 /Doctoral school : / September 22-24, 2024 /TSL Workshop: / September 25-27, 2024 / / / /--------------/ /Olivier Péton IMT Atlantique, LS2N laboratory 4 Rue Alfred Kastler, 44300 Nantes, France olivier.peton(a)imt-atlantique.fr +33 251 85 83 13 / / /

Fw: SI in JORS: OR in sustainability
by Said Salhi 28 Jan '24

28 Jan '24

Dear All As part of the 75th anniversary of the Journal of the Operational Research Society (JORS) this year, we aim to publish a SI on “OR in Sustainability”. Please find below the link to the call for papers: https://www.callforpapers.co.uk/or-sustainability<https://secureurl.ankabut.ac.ae/fmlurlsvc/?fewReq=:B:JVMxOj8yMS19NjklOy1ibz…> For simplicity I am also providing the call below for convenience. With best wishes Said Said Salhi Emeritus Professor (University of Kent, UK) & Visiting Professor (Khalifa University, UAE) *** Call for Papers in Journal of the Operational Research Society (JORS) TOPIC: Operational Research and Application for Sustainability and Sustainable Development The world is currently facing grand challenges, which encompass the range of complex global issues outlined by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) identified by the UN in its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, launched in 2015. To help address these challenges, which can be evident in different forms at all levels of the value chain, be it macro (industry, national, or global-levels), meso (firm-level) or micro-levels (individual-level), evidence-based inform decision-making becomes imperative. Operational research (OR), which has a long history spanning decades and was first applied in military efforts before Second World War, has long since spread to many disciplines such as engineering and management science as an analytical method for problem solving and decision making in organizations. The Journal of the Operational Research Society (JORS) has commissioned a Special Issue with a singular focus on the development and application of operational research methods, models, and tools to address complex global issues outlined by the 17 SDGs. This is part of its 75th anniversary. Quantitative and qualitative OR methods, such as those discussed in the encyclopaedic article of methods, models and algorithms by Petropoulos et al. (2023), which can be used to model sustainability problems, are crucial when examining complex combinations of environmental, social and economic systems at the macro, meso, or micro levels to inform decision-making processes. Modelling these systems involves integrating knowledge and perspectives into conceptual and computational tools, such as OR that explicitly acknowledge how human decisions impact the sustainability agenda, including the protection of natural capital and the environment. The complexity of current grand challenges as exemplified by the SDG’s and decision support processes and systems needed to address these challenges implies that real transition towards sustainability and sustainable development, would require modeling tools, including that of OR. This call for papers seeks original research papers that expands the potential of OR in the broader context of sustainability and sustainable development. The use of methods, models and tools from modern operational research to address major themes of sustainability and sustainable development are a prerequisite for any analytical or empirical research paper to this special issue to enter the review process. If a paper passes initial screening, it will proceed to a normal review process, overseen by the Guest Editor of this Special Issue and the Editors-in-Chief of JORS. Once accepted, the paper will be expedited for publication. Submission Deadline: 1 June 2024 Expected First Revision Deadline: 15 August 2024 Full Paper Accepted Date: circa mid-September 2024 In order to meet the above deadlines, only submissions with “Minor Revise” decisions will proceed to the next round of the review process.

Call for abstract submission: TSL 2024 workshop, Nantes (France) 25-27 september 2024
by Olivier Péton 26 Jan '24

26 Jan '24

The LS2N Laboratory, IMT Atlantique and CRC Services, with the support of the National Research Agency (ANR), are pleased to announce the call for the *12th INFORMS Transportation Science and Logistics Society Workshop (TSL 2024). * The workshop will be held in Nantes, France, from *September 25 to 27*. The main theme of the workshop is: *Optimizing Transportation and Logistics under Uncertainty * In the ever evolving world of transportation and logistics, there is a growing need to optimize operations under uncertainty. Decision makers are faced with variable transit times, volatile demand volumes, and fluctuating resource availability. This increases their need for algorithms that can deal with uncertainty. We invite submissions that enrich the scientific literature on optimizing transportation and logistics systems in uncertain environments. This includes, but is not limited to contributions in the following areas: - stochastic optimization, - robust optimization, - simulation-based optimization - dynamic models, - time-dependent models, - data-driven optimization, - uncertainty modeling. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTRIBUTORS Researchers interested in giving a presentation are invited to submit an abstract of no more than two pages. https://tsl2024.sciencesconf.org/ Acceptance of an abstract will be based on both the quality of the research and its appropriateness to the theme of the workshop. Please note that the TSL Workshop will be preceded by a *Doctoral School *on the same topic. We will offer a special registration rate for junior researchers who attend both events. REGISTRATION: The registration will open in February. IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission deadline: /March, 31, 2024 /Notification of acceptance:/ May, 31, 2024 /Early bird registration: / July 11, 2024 /Doctoral school : / September 22-24, 2024 (dates to be confirmed) /TSL Workshop: / September 25-27, 2024 / / / /--------------/ /Olivier Péton IMT Atlantique, LS2N laboratory 4 Rue Alfred Kastler, 44300 Nantes, France olivier.peton(a)imt-atlantique.fr +33 251 85 83 13 / / / / /
