Theme and Scope
The 6th International Symposium on Operations Research and its Applications in engineering, technology and management (ISORA'06), organized by the Asia-Pacific
Operations Research Center (APORC) within the Asia-Pacific OR
Societies (APORS) and Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and the
Operations Research Society of China, is held in Urumqi, Xinjiang
Uygur Autonomous Region, China from August 8 to 12, 2006. Sponsors
of ISORA'06 include the National Natural Science Foundation of
China, Academy of Mathematics and System Science, Chinese Academy of
Sciences, and ILOG Corporation.
At the council meeting of APORS held in Manila, January 2006, it is
restated that ISORA is an important series of international
symposiums with goals to provide a forum for regional and
international OR researchers, educators, and practitioners to
exchange ideas and approaches, to present research findings and
state-of-the-art solutions, and to open new avenues of research
cooperation, on all issues and topics related to the national and
regional development.
Theme of the ISORA'06 focuses on "OR Application in Industry". We
are particularly interested in submissions that report on
experimental and applied research motivated by real-world problems.
Theoretical and applied papers are expected to show convincingly the
usefulness and efficiency of OR methods and algorithms discussed in
a practical setting. Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest
are:
- Optimization theory
- Algorithm analysis and design
- Logistics management
- Graph theory/Combinatorics
- OR methods in Bioinformatics
- Applications in industry, service, finance, business and biology.

Proceeding Papers and Contributing Authors
From the volume 5 of the Lecture Notes in Operations Research
--- Proceedings of the Fifth International Symposium on Operations Research and Its Applications (ISORA'05),
the papers are indexed by ISTP (Index to Scientific & Technical
Proceedings).
Thirty four full papers in this volume cover wide range of
operations research theory and practice. Authors of these papers
come from Canada, China mainland, Hong Kong, Germany, Iran, Japan,
Korea, Kuwait, Taiwan, UK, and the United States. Many active
researchers in various areas contributed their overview and
introduction in their fields besides specific deep research
achievements. During the symposium focusing sessions are organized
such as in policy study, logicstics and supply chain management,
scheduling, queueing and network optimization, bioinformatics, and
management science.
ISORA'06 is held in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, the largest
province in area in northwest China. We hope all the participants
will enjoy very much not only the academic exchange, but also the
unique mixed eastern and western cultures and beautiful landscape of
the ancient silk road hubs.
