The analysis and optimization of warehouse performance

Description

Warehouses are essential to the performance of today’s supply-chains. The analysis and optimization of warehouse performance is important to reduce the experienced delay of customers, especially considering the growth in demand fueled by e-commerce. During this three-day workshop various leading experts and young researchers will present their research on the evaluation and optimization of warehouses, using methods, e.g., from combinatorial optimization, queueing theory and machine learning. We plan to discuss both mathematical modeling and analysis, as well as the practical aspect of warehousing design.

 

The event includes:

• A tutorial by: René de Koster (Erasmus University),
• Keynote talks by: Nils Boysen (Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena), Kees Jan Roodbergen (University of Groningen) and Debjit Roy (Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad).
• Talks from industry by: Denis Pogosov (Principal R&D Engineer, Vanderlande), Erik van Wunnik (Global Director Product Development, DSV), Anke Simons (Junior Consultant, CQM)
• Talks from academia by:  Vinh Dang (Eindhoven University of Technology), Tim Engels (TU/e), Negin Jamili (Erasmus University), Timo Lehmann (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Thomas De Lombaert (Hasselt University), Bhoomica Nataraja (TU/e), Farzaneh Rajabighamchi (Maastricht University),  Arpan Rijal (University of Groningen), Lin Xie (University of Twente), Yingqian Zhang (TU/e)
