Abstract:
This e-book contains five of the best papers from the 18th annual NOFOMA conference, hosted by the Norwegian School of Management in Oslo in 2006. The theme of the conference was 'Logistics in the new valley'. Two articles, on relief logistics and inventory control models respectively, received awards for best papers. Two further articles, a multiple case study of vendor managed inventory and a participant observation study, were considered the best papers written by research students. The final piece investigates the efficiency of supply to an offshore petroleum installation.
