This conference is hosted by Molde University College, the leading research and education center for logistics and operations management in Norway. Since this conference is held right at my doorstep I thought I should promote it, especially since my research topic Uncertainty and Disruption in the Supply Chain is one of the topics that is covered.

Some relevant topics for the Conference are:
- Environment and energy concern in the Supply Chain
- Distribution networks, routing and transportation systems
- Inventory planning and management
- Make or buy decisions
- Uncertainty and disruption in the Supply Chain
- Planning supply and demand – managing predictable variability
- Application, integration and development of information systems and technology
- E-Business
- Managing conflicts of interest in the Supply Chain
- Exploit scale effects in the Supply Chain
- Supply chains in public organizations and service enterprises
Paper submissions are due on February 1st, 2008.
