  <title><![CDATA[ROUTE 2007 Provides Forum for Scientific Exchange]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>ROUTE 2007, a biennial international workshop on vehicle routing and transportation, took place on May 13-16 at Jekyll Island, Georgia.  The purpose of the workshop was to provide a forum for scientific exchange and cooperation in the fields of vehicle routing, intermodal transportation and related areas.  The Stewart School's Supply Chain and Logistics Institute (SCL) supported this year's program.  The Workshop, organized by ISyE Professors Martin Savelsberg and Alan Erera along with Michelle Powers, included close to forty experts representing universities from across the globe.
</p>
<p>"This year's workshop was a great success because it was attended by most of the leading academic researchers in the area of transportation,* said Savelsbergh.

<p>Route 2007 presentations are available online at <a href="http://www2.isye.gatech.edu/route2007/presentations/">http://www2.isye.gatech.edu/route2007/presentations/</a>.  Previous editions of ROUTE have been hosted by the Technical University of Denmark (2000, 2003) and the University of Bologna (2005).  The next ROUTE workshop is scheduled to take place in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2009.

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
