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.

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
