EVM Europe News

While we are counting to December 2, 2014 and still have to wait for 288 days (see the EVM Europe countdown clock), the top 5 observations of EVM Europe 2013, written by our US colleague Mark Philips, are now published in The Measurable News and is available here.

Other publications on all previous EVM Europe events, mainly written by our Australian colleague Kym Henderson, can be found at PM Knowledge Center at www.pmknowledgecenter.com.

At EVM Europe 2013, 17 students from the Operations Research and Scheduling (OR&S) group at Ghent University have presented their work to academics and professionals.
