Supply chains and logistics have long been recognized as critical concerns in homeland security because so much of the economy now depends on products and components manufactured in one place and used shortly thereafter in another. Disruptions can result in serious economic loss, and the risk has become even greater since the events of September 11, 2001. This workshop will bring together 20-30 researchers, educators, regulators and practitioners in freight transportation at a mid-January 2004 workshop hosted by Georgia Tech to discuss issues in the logistics security area and evolve a research agenda. The challenge of making logistic networks more secure without losing functionality is enormous and a rich potential application for the modeling and analysis methods of operations research. Still, it is relatively unexplored. Thus the meeting could have very broad impact on the degree to which academia responds to the challenge

长期以来，供应链和物流一直被认为是国土安全中的关键问题，因为现在的经济在很大程度上依赖于在一个地方生产的产品和零部件，然后不久又在另一个地方使用。中断可能导致严重的经济损失，自2001年9月11日事件以来，风险变得更大。这次研讨会将在2004年1月中旬由佐治亚理工学院主办的研讨会上汇聚20-30名货运领域的研究人员、教育工作者、监管机构和从业人员，讨论物流安全领域的问题，并制定研究议程。在不损失功能的情况下使物流网络更安全是一个巨大的挑战，对于运筹学的建模和分析方法来说，这是一个巨大的潜在应用。尽管如此，它仍然相对未被开发。因此，这次会议可能会对学术界应对挑战的程度产生非常广泛的影响
