Summer School on Operational Research and Applications
The Summer School on Operational Research and Applications will take place on May 10 – 14, 2017 in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. The school is organized by
the Laboratory of Algorithms and Technologies for Networks Analysis and Faculty of Informatics, Mathematics and Computer Science of the National Research University Higher School of Economics, Nizhny Novgorod.
The main topics of the school are related to practical algorithms in logistics, transportation and traffic management, scheduling, decision science, and stochastic programming.
The school is hosted by the National Research University Higher School of Economics in Nizhny Novgorod (Room 209, 136 Rodionova Str). The school follows the tradition of previous summer schools on operational research and applications 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016:
Summer school 2012
Summer school 2013
Summer school 2014
Summer school 2015
The school is organized for last-year bachelor, master and PhD students. To attend the school as a participant you must register before April 20, 2017. Students are also encouraged to present the recent results of their research related to the topics of the summer school. Selected school papers will be published in a conference NET 2017 proceeding (indexed in Scopus).
