Event Details/Other Comments:

The workshop will focus on these three broad areas of major importance: transportation planning under uncertainty, optimizing the design of transportation systems, and pricing and revenue management. Exploring the interface between these areas will be of particular interest, and so the workshop will seek to bring together researchers who work in each of these fields to provide a cross-fertilization of ideas. A further goal is to emphasize the interface between mathematics and its applications in practical situations. To enhance this we will be engaging the support and participation of industrial partners.
We are soliciting contributed talks from interested researchers who work in these fields. Contributed talks must be relevant to the themes of the Workshop. If you are interested in submitting a contributed talk then please email a title and abstract to
