FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
*********************************************************************
The 24th European Conference on Operational Research, EURO XXIV, will
be held at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon.
This large conference is organized by EURO (The Association of European
OR Societies) and APDIO (The Portuguese OR Society), with the support
