Odysseus 2024
2024-05-19 - 2024-05-24
ODYSSEUS workshops remain one of the leading scientific meetings that contribute greatly to the development of the Logistics and Freight Transportation field. ODYSSEUS 2024 will be the 9th edition in the series of ODYSSEUS meetings after Crete 2000, Sicily 2003, Altea 2006, Çeşme 2009, Mykonos 2012, Ajaccio 2015, Cagliari 2018 and Tangier 2021 (postponed to 2022 due to COVID-19 pandemics).
This international, triennial workshop, brings together researchers and practitioners of freight transportation and logistics to discuss recent experiences, exchange ideas, disseminate research results, and present advanced applications and technologies. It is a high quality forum that exhibit the recent developments in the freight transportation and logistics field, as well as its trends and advances in the theory, practice and application of mathematical models, methodologies and decision support systems.
ODYSSEUS 2024 will be held in Carmona (Spain), a beautiful small city that lies only 35 kilometers from Seville. Its origins go back to the Neolithic period, with rich prehistoric sites having been found in the surrounding area. An Iberian town – one of its early governors was very actively involved in the Second Punic war (218-202 B.C.), it was intensively Romanized, and the importance of Carmona was recognized when it was granted the privilege of minting its own coins. The Via Augusta road – which ran all the way from what is now Cadiz to Rome, went through Carmona, and various remains and a bridge with evident Roman elements have survived to this day. Nowadays, the town still follows, with only very minor variations, the typical Roman urban layout.

VeRoLog 2025 - Trento, June 16-19
2025-06-16 17:00 - 2025-06-19 17:00 UTC | Trento, Via Tommmaso Gar 14, Trento, Italy
The Department of Industrial Engineering of the University of Trento is pleased to warmly invite researchers at any stage of their career as well practitioners from industries to contribute submitting an abstract to the 9th meeting of the EURO working group on Vehicle Routing and Logistics optimization (VeRoLog) organized in Trento (Italy) on 16-19 June 2025.
This distinguished event goal is to provide a platform to present and discuss the latest and most relevant advances concerning vehicle routing optimization and its relationship with logistics, in an environment distinguished by fast, unexpected and prominent scenario variations.
Disruptions in supply chains, customer compelling requirements, dynamic evolution of targeted scenario, needs to fulfill social and environmental goals determines novel threats as well as opportunities for today logistic sector. Availability of huge amount of data, innovative and performing solving algorithms, mathematical modelling of real features of distribution problems enable researcher and practitioners to efficaciely and efficiently face remarkable transportation issues.
Aim of this conference is to collect distinguished and original contributions to tackle and solve the most relevant problems dealing with vehicle routing and logistics optimization, for the different industries which face such peculiar issues in different variants and applications.
For the first time in VeRoLog history roundtables will be organized to enhance and foster the discussion and debate among peers concerning the hottest topics and trends in VRP research, chaired by distinguished experts.
