I am at the EURO conference at the moment (see http://www.euro-2009.de) (the picture was taken during the opening ceremony).
This is an annual conference for the European Operational Research Societies. This year it has attracted around 2000 delegates, which was a lot more than we had expected (I know as I am on the main Program Committee and have been actively involved in planning and organising the conference, although I have not worked anything like as hard as some people I could mention – but won’t mention them by name for fear of embarassing them).
As the conference progresses I’lll report on anything that grabs my interest/attention.
