    Dear Colleagues,  

    The aim of the IFORS Developing Countries On-Line Resources page
    is to offer the OR worker all publicly-available materials on the
    topic of OR for Development. It also aims to provide a venue for
    people who are working in the area to share their completed or
    in-process work, learn from others, and stimulate comments and
    discussions on the work.

    Regarding IFORS Developing Countries OR resources website, its
    regular updates - and your possible submission of "free" (not
    copyright protected) material, you might occasionally visit

    http://ifors.org/developing_countries/index.php?title=Main_Page.


    "Operational Research" (OR) is the discipline of applying
    advanced analytical methods to help make better decisions. By
    using techniques such as problem structuring methods and
    mathematical modelling to analyze complex situations, Operational
    Research gives executives the power to make more effective
    decisions and build more productive systems.

    The International Federation of Operational Research Societies
    (IFORS; http://ifors.org/) is an almost 60-year old organization
    which is currently composed of 51 national societies.

    Regional Groups of IFORS are:

    ALIO (The Latin American Ibero Association on Operations Research),
    APORS (The Association of Asian-Pacific Operational Research
    Societies), EURO (The Association of European Operational Research
    Societies), NORAM (The Association of North American Operations
    Research Societies).

    IFORS conferences are taking place every three years; IFORS 2017
    has been successfully celebrated in Quebec City, Canada.


    Thank you very much for your attention.

    With kind regards,
    best wishes,


    Luciana Buriol, Sue Merchant, Gerhard-Wilhelm Weber
