Computers & Operations Research

Change of Editor

Gilbert Laporte
has decided to step down as Editor of Computers & Operations Research. We are extremely grateful to Gilbert for the excellent way he performed his editorial duties over the past 4 years and for the service he has provided to the community.

Although we are sad to see Gilbert go, we are pleased to announce that Stefan Nickel of Saarland University, Germany has agreed to take over the position as Editor. Stefan has an excellent profile for this position, for details on his background go to http://www.orl.uni-saarland.de/Mitarbeiter/Personen/StNi/CV_SN_December_2005.htm.

Submissions made up until September 30, 2006 should still be delivered to Gilbert. Gilbert will finalize the editorial process for these submissions. Also, because of the large stock of accepted articles, many of the articles to be published in forthcoming issues will remain under Gilbert’s editorial responsibility. Gilbert will continue to be associated with C&OR as a serving member on the Editorial Advisory Board.

As of October 1, 2006, all submissions should be made electronically via the web http://ees.elsevier.com/cor and will be handled by Stefan.

Once again, we thank Gilbert for his service which has helped to establish and maintain C&OR as a reputable international journal. We wish Stefan all the best in his new role and have full confidence that the C&OR editorship will be in good hands.
