Transportation Systems Analysis

In 1975, IIASA decided to co-sponsor the IFAC Workshop on Optimization Applied to Transportation Systems, scheduled to take place in Vienna from 17 to 19 February, 1976. Professor Howard Raiffa, then Director of IIASA, proposed that the Institute take advantage of the presence in Vienna of transportation experts by holding a small meeting at IIASA. The meeting would identify possibilities for both future in-house transportation research activities and external cooperation with national research institutes in the countries of IIASA National Member Organizations (NMOS).
