Book

Description

Events take place at possibly unpredictable points in time and space and therefore impose special challenges in relation to classical logistics modelling. These challenges are discussed in this book, and new mathematical models are introduced, discussed, and exemplified throughout the text. Event Logistics discusses, presents, and provides solutions to logistics problems related to events, and includes the following key topics: Event Forecasting, Event Inventory Management, Event Production, Event Supply Chains, Event Transportation, Event facility Location, Dynamic Pricing and Event Sequencing among others. The book contains several case studies, all focusing on the local football club Molde FC as well as the famous local jazz-festival in Molde, NORWAY.
