STOCHASTIC ACTIVITY MONTH October/November, 2016
Stochastic Operations Management
SUMMARY
This second SAM on Stochastic Operations Managment is concerned with decision
making under uncertainty. In real life, examples abound of situations in which
decisions must be made, costs must be minimized, etc., while only partial
information is available. One may think of revenue management, inventory
control, staffing of call centers, the organi- zation of warehouses, traffic
management, and many other topics. Stochastic operations research uses, develops
and provides tools from probability theory and operations research to make good
decisions. MAIN ORGANISERS
