TRISTAN VIII – EIGHTH TRIENNIAL SYMPOSIUM ON TRANSPORTATION ANALYSIS
Call for Abstracts
June 9 – 14, 2013
San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
----------------------------
Presentation
TRISTAN is an international scientific conference that provides a high
quality forum for the presentation of mathematical models, methodologies
and computational results, and for the exchange of ideas and scientific
discussions on advanced applications and technologies in transportation.
The seven previous conferences took place in Montréal (Canada, 1991),
Capri (Italy, 1994), San Juan (Puerto Rico, 1998), San Miguel (Azores
Islands, 2001), Le Gosier (Guadeloupe, 2004), Phuket (Thailand, 2007) and
Tromso (Norway, 2010).
The chosen location for TRISTAN VIII is San Pedro de Atacama, Chile. As in
all previous meetings, we expect to gather top research scientists from
universities and research institutes from all over the world along with
scientific participants from private sectors, public agencies, and
graduate students. This time, the discussions regarding state of the art
methodological as well as practical issues will take place in the middle
of the amazing landscapes of one of the recognized most beautiful places
on earth, an island of civilization in the middle of the desert!
The conference will be held June 9 to 14, 2013, at the Kunza Hotel & Spa
(www.hotelkunza.cl)
in San Pedro de Atacama. Information about registration, airfares,
accessibility, accommodation in San Pedro, etc., will be published soon
on the official web site of the Conference, still under construction
