Dear colleague,
The deadline for EURO Valencia's abstract submission is approaching: 5 March 2018.
You are invited to submit an abstract for the 29th European Conference on Operational Research in session OR in the Physical Internet organized by Elsa Silva, António Ramos and José Fernando Oliveira.
The 29th European conference on Operational Research, will be held from 8 ‑ 11 July 2018, in Valencia. Details can be found at http://euro2018valencia.com/.
The new Physical Internet paradigm for supply chain management represents a real and viable alternative to meet the challenges posed. Physical Internet relies on collaborative management models and the extension of the normalized containerization paradigm to all levels of cargo movement and handling to provide a fast, productive, reliable and sustainable supply chain.
This approach introduces new challenges to the majority of operation research problems addressed within a supply chain scope like the vehicle routing problem or the container loading problem, whether by introducing new constraints or by modifying the current ones.
