To promote the research and practices of Operations Research/Management Science in China, Academy of Mathematics and System Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Departments of Industrial Engineering, Management Science & Engineering, and Mathematical Sciences of Tsinghua University, and The Operations Research Society of China are jointly organizing a summer workshop on “Stochastic Models of Supply Chain and Logistics”. World renowned researchers are invited to present the state-of-art research and frontier of the subject areas.  The objective is to expose the latest developments to the young faculty members and graduate students in Chinese universities and research institutions.

 

Junior faculty members/researchers and graduate students are encouraged to apply to attend the workshop. The workshop sponsors shall provide scholarships to cover the accommodations of workshop attendants, and applicants interested in receiving scholarship are referred to the application form.      

 

The workshop attendants will not only be introduced to the latest research developments in design, analysis, and optimization of operations, supply chains, and logistics, they will also get the opportunity to interact with world leading researchers in their respective research fields and develop research collaboration relationships with them.

 

This is intended to be one of a series of multi-year workshops, with each year emphasizing a particular theme of Operations Research/Management Science. It is hoped that through a series of such workshops, the research activities in these areas in China will be brought to a new level.

 

Organized by

Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science, CAS and Tsinghua University, and Operations Research Society of China
