The workshop will focus on presenting the subject of business optimization in a non-technical manner. </p><p><br />Through contributions from one of the industry leaders in business optimization and three cases from actors in <em>oil and gas, health care</em> and <em>air transport</em> industries the workshop seeks to provide both an overview of the current best practice as well as specific challenges associated with executing and implementing business optimization projects. Talks will discuss aspects relating to <em>data analytics</em>, <em>problem modeling</em>, and <em>organizational implementation</em>.</p><p><br />Each talk will be followed by a brief discussion session allowing you to get input on current challenges you might currently be facing or otherwise seek additional details on specific aspects of the presented topic. </p><p><br />The workshop especially addresses the decision makers and analytic personnel in companies starting or already working on optimization projects. Many of the aspects concerning e.g. problem modeling or end user involvement, even though they differ in main subject, face the same challenges from company to company. </p><p><br />We hope that this workshop will bring people from the different companies together to be inspired by the talks on how others put optimization projects to life and to discuss in general how they can improve on business optimization.<br /><br />Further details regarding the individual talks can be found in the <a href="http://www.dorsnet.dk/aoo2008/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=44&Itemid=53" title="Program">Program</a>.</p><p>Registration is done using the <a href="http://www.dorsnet.dk/aoo2008/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=51&Itemid=59" title="Registration form">Registration form</a>. </p>
