Operations Research Proceedings 2006

From the reviews: "'Operations Research Proceedings 2006' is a collection of selected papers that have been presented at the 2006 joint conference of the Austrian, German and Swiss Operational Research Societies (OGOR, GOR, SVOR) in Karlsruhe, Germany. ... could be valuable for researchers who have been unable to participate in the event but still want to grasp some of its material. In my opinion, it is ... recommended for students." (M. J. Geiger, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 61 (12), 2010)
