    Welcome to IFORS 2021 Virtual!

    Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, IFORS 2020 is moved to August 22-27, 2021.
    Moreover, the IFORS Administrative Committee and the IFORS 2020
    Organizing Committee decided to go for a virtual conference.

    It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 22nd Conference of the
    International Federation of Operational Research Societies (IFORS 2021)
    to be held virtually on August 22 (Sun) - 27 (Fri), 2021, hosted by
    Hanyang University in Seoul, South Korea.

    IFORS is an international conference held every three years to bring
    together academia, practitioners and experts in the field of Management
    Science from more than 60 countries and to contribute to its development
    through mutual academic and information exchange. Since its inaugural
    meeting in the United Kingdom in 1957, this conference has become a
    large international academic conference involving more than 2,000
    professionals from the United States, Europe, Asia, Oceania and South
    America.
