The paper presents an overview of the history and achievements of trans-border cooperation in the Lithuania-Germany-Poland triangle in planning instruments in Construction Management, decision-making theory, application of Operational Research, and Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods in Civil Engineering and sustainable development. The cooperation and results of the Colloquiums with 35 years of tradition, their multidimensional nature is underlined. The research instruments, methods, studied phenomena are reviewed and characteristic applications in engineering and economics are presented. The knowledge and combined efforts of three academic centers have created a synergy which set in motion many original methods and spectacular implementations. The Colloquium calendar and the evolution of organizational forms are presented along with the inclusion of the informal EURO Working Group on Operations Research in Sustainable Development and Civil Engineering.

Science Methodology

Operations Research (OR) can be identified as the discipline that uses statistics, mathematics, computer-modelling and similar science methodology for decision making (Luss, Rosenwein, 1997). OR, powered with statistics and models, is a high potential engine for use in many areas that require evidence-based or model-based decision making. One of the most promising areas is specifically the infection outbreak management. Surprisingly, very little OR/statistics research has been aimed at infection outbreak management; usually, other general epidemiology issues were tackled in models. However, OR/statistics models for use in the infection outbreak management exist and can be effectively used in public policy and outbreak management practice. Probably, key reasons for that little involvement of OR/statistics in the infection outbreaks management is low awareness among the specialist community of OR/statistics use and benefits for their decision making. Up to the moment, there is lack of contemporary review of OR/statistics-applied models used for the infection outbreak management decision making. The present paper aimed at filling that gap and providing two benefits to involved health care managers and academics: first, developing awareness on the use and benefits of OR/statistics models for the infection outbreak management decision making, and second, for plotting the current state of affairs to highlight research opportunities for developing the field by academics and epidemic control professionals.

The Impact

Environmental monitoring (EM) is one of the components of the environmental management system on Russian Railways. It consists in obtaining analytical information about the composition and properties of pollution by industrial facilities, comparing it with established standards and transferring this information to a database for management decision-making.[1]

The Relationship

Abstract. Based on responses from 158 reward managers located at the headquarters or subsidiaries of multinational enterprises, the present study examines the relationship between the centralization of reward management decision making and its perceived effectiveness in multinational enterprises. Our results show that headquarters managers perceive a centralized approach as being more effective, while for subsidiary managers this relationship is moderated by the manager’s role identity. Referring to social identity theory, the present study enriches the standardization versus localization debate through a new perspective focusing on psychological processes, thereby indicating the importance of in-group favoritism in headquarters and the influence of subsidiary managers’ role identities on reward management decision making.
