INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE GERMAN OPERATIONS RESEARCH  
SOCIETY (OR 2012), Hannover, Germany, September 4-7, 2012:





"Energy, Markets and Mobility"  / www.or2012.de





FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS

======================================





The organizers of the OR 2012 conference are glad to invite you to  
this conference to be held in Hannover, Germany, from September 4-7,  
2012.



We have chosen a rich and exiting main topic: "Energy, Markets and Mobility"



The OR 2012 conference in Hannover will address these topics from an  
OR perspective, treating them not only in isolation, but also with  
respect to their numerous and exciting interconnections, such as:



*    New energy for new mobility concepts

*    New market mechanisms for sustainable energy production



to name but a few. We will draw on the vast local expertise to  
organize an exciting and truly interdisciplinary conference in Hannover.



As in former years, the conference will also provide ample  
opportunities to present OR-related research results in 18 different  
streams, representing the many problem-oriented and methodological  
aspects of Operations Research as a rich and vivid academic field.



Both the Program and the Organizing Committee are preparing a highly  
attractive scientific, academic and social program and we are very  
much looking forward to welcoming you in Hannover! A social highlight  
will be the festive conference dinner in the "Great Hall of the  
Maharajah" of Hannover's Adventure Zoo.



Please visit the conference website (www.or2012.de) for detailed information.
