This First International Conference on Operational Research was organized by The Operations Research Society--United Kingdom, The Operations Research Society of America, and the Institute of Management Sciences. This conference was keynoted by Philip M. Morse. From Wikipedia: "Philip McCord Morse (August 6, 1903, Shreveport, Louisiana 5 September 1985, Concord, Massachusetts), was an American physicist, administrator and pioneer of operations research (OR) in World War II. He is considered to be the father of operations research in the U.S.Morse graduated from the Case School of Applied Science in 1926 with a B.S. in physics. [1] He earned his Ph.D. in physics from Princeton University in 1929. [2] In 1930, he was granted an International Fellowship, which he used to do postgraduate study and research at the Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich under Arnold Sommerfeld during the winter of 1930 to the spring of 1931. From the spring through the summer of 1931, he was at Cambridge University. Upon return to the United States, he joined the faculty of MIT. [3][4] In 1949 he was named the first Research Director of the Weapons Systems Evaluation Group (WSEG), an organization founded to conduct studies for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, where he served a year and a half before returning to MIT in the summer of 1950. In 1956 he launched MIT s Operations Research Center, directing it until 1968, and awarding the first Ph.D. in OR in the U.S. to John Little. He was a member of a National Research Council committee dedicated to bringing OR into civilian life, and was a prime mover behind the creation of the Operations Research Society of America (ORSA) in 1952. He served as president of the American Physical Society, president of the Acoustical Society of America (ASA), and board chair of the American Institute of Physics. In 1946, he was a recipient of the Medal for Merit from the U.S. President for his work during the war. In 1973 the ASA awarded him the Gold Medal, its highest award, for his work on vibration." This volume records the proceedings of a conference on operational research held at Oxford, England from 2nd to 6th September, 1957. The conference was organized on an international basis and was attended by 250 delegates from 21 countries. The object of the conference was 'to unify and ext4end the science of operaitonal research. As papers had been printed and circulated to the delegates in advance, the minimum time was spent in presentation. Most of the converence sessions were thus spend in discussions, shortened versions of which are included in this volume. Good. Ex-library.
