WORMS Topics Directory

The intention is to have a large list of OR/MS topics, each webmastered by expert(s) in that area, including graduate students. Persons working in the same area are encouraged to coordinate their activities. We certainly need more entries !!! You may wish to visit Brian's Digest to see what topics are discussed on the network.

The index below is based on the Table tag of HTML 3.0. If you browser does not support this feature (shame on it!) you'll have to do it the hard way.

  Imprecise mathematical thinking is by no means unknown in OR/MS. But, argues Dr. Arsham, we need to think more clearly if we are to keep out of trouble.
