A national conference is organised by the Society at different venues annually, usually during the month of September, to serve as a forum for communication about OR. An international expert or a prominent local operations researcher is usually invited as the keynote speaker. This is the premier annual meeting of the Society, and apart from a rich and varied programme of presentations by both practitioners and academics, the conference usually also boasts a very enjoyable social component.
The 52nd Annual Conference of the Operations Research Society of South Africa (ORSSA) will be hosted by the Department of Decision Sciences at the University of South Africa (Unisa).
Save the conference dates: 10 to 13 September, 2023.
Venue: Pecan Manor Conference and Function Venue, Hartbeespoort
Registration will take place at the Welcoming Function on Sunday evening, 10 September, 2023, which will give delegates a chance to greet, mingle and re-connect. The conference will run until Wednesday, 13 September 2023.
The theme of this conference is Evolutionary OR techniques: Hybrid with Machine Learning. We believe the lineup of keynote speakers, optional add-on tutorials and focussed streams will provide delegates the opportunity to engage with experienced academics, practitioners and industry leaders.
