CALL FOR PAPERS

This conference is the 2010 edition of the annual International
OR conference organised by the German OR society. In 2010, the
overall theme is "Mastering Complexity". Complexity is a natural
component of the globalization process. Financial markets, traffic
systems, network topologies and, last but not least, energy
resource management, all contain complex behaviour and economic
interdependencies which necessitate a scientific solution.
Operations Research is one of the key instruments to model,
simulate and analyze such systems. In the process of developing
optimal solutions, suitable heuristics and efficient procedures
are some of the challenges which will be discussed at this
conference.

The conference is organised by the German OR society
(https://www.gor-online.org) together with this year's partner,
the Italian OR society (http://www.airo.org).
We are very grateful for this special endorsement!

The conference will take place on the campus of the University of
the German Armed Forces in Munich. This University was founded in
1973 with the aim of providing officers and officer candidates
with a university education that would also prepare them for
civilian careers. Since its founding, the number of students has
been rising steadily: today there are around 3,700 registered
students, including 360 women, 50 civilians, and 150
international students and officers.
