  Symposium on Optimization in Supply Chains


SATURDAY, 27th OCTOBER 2007
VENUE: ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING SEMINAR HALL (EESH),
 NEAR EE BLDG

The theme of this symposium is in modelling and analysis of optimization problems arising in Supply Chains. The focus will be on Quantitative techniques in traditional as well as emerging areas of supply chain management. The symposium is being organized for Researchers, Doctoral, Master's and senior undergraduate students, and teachers working in the broad areas of IE and OR.  We hope to provide an exposure to students about research possibilities that can be pursued at the IEOR programme at IIT Bombay, and in other research groups.

IEOR invites research scholars, students and all professionals to participate in the Symposium. Those who wish to attend, kindly register yourself by sending a e-mail to our Symposium Coordinator,  at
jayendran@iitb.ac.in with the subject as "Symposium-2007". Please mention in your e-mail: Name, Current academic/ professional status, Affiliation and travel plans for those coming from outside Mumbai.

We will make arrangements for local hospitality for a limited number of out station Ph.D. and Master's students who wish to participate in the Symposium; we regret not being able to support their travel.
