Note: The abstracts have been processed automatically using the abstract forms e-mailed by the authors. Only one substantive type of modification has been applied, i.e., in a few cases the co-author has been named first, if only he/she will participate in the Workshop. In Japan, there are severe requirement of cutting off costs in the industry and it is spread out even to the delivery of their products. We have been making an effort to cut expense of delivery by using traveling sale man problem with adaptive range genetic algorithms, and tested the system to actual delivery works. However, because of lack of detail information from GIS and situation of parking, service person could not keep the turns of vending machines as the system ordered. Beside that, they turn vending machine so well, so that we cannot reduce their time adequately. Thus, we have tried auto-dispatching problem to reduce unbalance between service person and tried to know the best scenarios for delivery system. The EU sponsored project ENSEMBLE is managed by three institutions: (i) Risoe National Laboratory , Coordinator , assisted by (ii) Joint Research Centre (JRC) Ispra, and (iii) University of Manchester (UoM). In particular, Risoe manages the administrative and financial coordination with the EU Commission and the subcontractors to the project (like the National Meteorological Services), while Environ-metal Institute (EI) at JRC manages the technical coordination of the ENSEMBLE experiments. UoM brings to the project its unprecedented experience with decision support based on uncertain information. The ENSEMBLE Website, with associated internet tools, has been developed by the ENVIROWARE-SRL on contract under EI JRC. The ENSEMBLE project addresses harmonization and coherence issues for emergency management and decision making in relation to modelling long-range transport of debris emitted from nuclear accidents. Main assumptions, objectives and general description of the project were presented at the the CMS-2001 at IIASA in August 2001. The project has been going on for more than one year now. During this time some interesting internet tools have been developed by the Environmental Institute at Joint Research Centre (JRC) in Ispra, Italy. These tools are routinely used by the project participants,including Norwegian Meteorological Institute in Oslo. They are available on ENSEMBLE WEB pages. Access to WEB pages requires a user-id and password, which are given to all project participants. During the project duration altogether 10 exercise will be performed, which will simulate different types of nuclear accidents …
