چکیده
This Special Issue is dedicated to the ALIO-INFORMS Joint International Meeting, held at the University of Buenos Aires, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, between the 6th and the 9th of June, 2010. This joint conference consisted of the INFORMS International Conference and XV CLAIO, the biannual conference organized by ALIO. The ALIO-INFORMS 2010 focused on topics such as services, logistics and transportation, manufacturing, supply chain management, environment, natural resources, biotechnology, and healthcare, emphasizing the importance of the relationship between basic research and the practice of OR/MS. This time, the Conference also included a Cluster dedicated to Nonlinear Programming, cochaired by Ernesto G. Birgin and José Mario Martínez. The Cluster overviewed a broad range of Nonlinear Programming aspects, ranging from theory to practice and applications. It consisted of thirty presentations divided into nine special sessions. The Cluster chairs are thankful to the sessions organizers, Ana Friedlander, Andreas Griewank, Cristina Maciel, Elvio Pilotta, Luis Mauricio Graña Drummond, Natasa Krejic, Nélida Echebest, and Susana Scheimberg, whose effort greatly contributed to the successful realization of the Cluster.

متن کاملThe Zeitgeist of Challenging the Evidence. A Perspective on the International Consensus Meeting on Periprosthetic Joint Infection
Background: The economic burden of the treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is high and the treatment of PJI has a high degree of international controversy. Several papers have declared the International Consensus Meeting on Periprosthetic Joint Infection (ICMPJI) to be the "flawless pledge of international academics" to overcome the challenges of musculoskeletal infections. The p...
متن کاملOptimal Solution in a Constrained Distribution System
We develop a method to obtain an optimal solution for a constrained distribution system with several items and multi-retailers. The objective is to determine the procurement frequency as well as the joint shipment interval for each retailer in order to minimize the total costs. The proposed method is applicable to both nested and non-nested policies and ends up with an optimal solution. To solv...
