Group Travel for U. S. Participants to ISOLDE IV (Interna- tional Symposium on Locational Decisions), Namur, Belgium, June 11-16, 1987

第四次国际会议将于1987年6月11日至16日在比利时纳穆尔举行。多年来，选址理论、方法和应用一直是众多学科的研究人员感兴趣的问题。涉及空间定位或区域指定的位置决策是操作系统内的资源在空间上的分配。参加Isolde IV的将有对位置问题感兴趣的知名研究人员和年轻科学家。这笔赠款将帮助支持美国与会者的旅行，特别是年轻的与会者。罗威教授和王教授在这一领域已经领导了一段时间，他们非常有资格管理这一奖项。普渡大学拥有开展这项活动所需的资源。强烈推荐获奖。

The international meeting ISOLDE IV (International Symposium on Locational Decisions) will be held in Namur, Belgium during the period of June 11-16, 1987. Location theories, methodologies and applications have been of interest to researchers in numerous disciplines for many years. Locational decisions, involving spacial positioning or area designations, are spatially-dependent allocations of resources within an operating system. ISOLDE IV will be attended by a mix of well-established researchers and young scientists interested in locational problems. This grant will help support the travel of US attendees, especially the younger ones. Professors Lowe and Wong have been leaders in this field for some time now, and are well qualified to administer the award. Purdue University has the resources necessary to carry out this activity. An award is highly recommended.
