INFORMS TSL Workshop 2019 in Vienna: 2nd announcement
=====================================================
The next INFORMS TSL Workshop will be held from July 15-18, 2019 at the University of Vienna.
The topic of the workshop is "Transportation in the sharing economy". Sharing economy refers
to collaborative consumption. It is typically organized through platforms that facilitate the
exchange of goods or services. Given an increasing pressure to act economically and ecologically
efficient, mechanisms that help to benefit from idle capacities are on the rise. Both
transportation companies and heavy users of transportation services need to learn how to play in
a world of shared idle capacities. We anticipate talks on various types of collaborations, crowd
delivery, carsharing, carpooling, ridesharing, etc.
