The Tunisian Operational Research Society is proud to announce the first annual conference TORS’15. This meeting seeks to bring together researchers coming from diverse areas such as operational research, artificial intelligence, decision theory, computer science and related fields. In addition, it will provide the opportunity for industrials, managers and researchers to collaborate and to exchange knowledge on quantitative techniques for decision-making.

TORS’15 provides a multi-disciplinary forum for sharing knowledge in the area of operational research with a special focus on the theoretical developments and methodologies. Real applications of the operational research approaches are also encouraged especially those dealing with the industrial field. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

1. Heuristics and meta-heuristics

2. Linear, non-linear, integer, stochastic and multi-objective optimization

3. Simulation, learning and statistical methods

4. Decision theory, game theory and multi-criteria optimization

5. Constraint programming and artificial intelligence

6. Network optimization, flows and applications

7. Scheduling, planning, production management and project management

8. DEA and performance measure

9. Decision support systems

10. Uncertainty theories: belief functions, probability, possibility and fuzzy sets theories
