INFORMS -
The Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences
(INFORMS) is the largest professional society in the world for
professionals in the field of operations research (O.R.). It was
established in 1995 with the merger of the Operations Research Society
of America (ORSA) and The Institute of Management Sciences (TIMS). The
society serves the scientific and professional needs of O.R. educators,
investigators, scientists, students, managers, and consultants, as well
as the organizations they serve, by such services as publishing 12
scholarly journals that describe the latest O.R. methods and
applications and a membership magazine with news from across the
profession. The society organizes national and international
conferences for academics and professionals, as well as members of the
society's special interest groups. The Institute serves as a focal
point for O.R. professionals, permitting them to communicate with each
other and reach out to other professional societies, as well as the
varied clientele of the profession's research and practice. As of
early 2008, INFORMS has about 10,000 members.
Institute of
Industrial Engineers
- IIE is the world’s largest professional society dedicated
solely to the support of the industrial engineering profession and
individuals involved with improving quality and productivity. Founded
in 1948, IIE is an international, non-profit association that provides
leadership for the application, education, training, research, and
development of industrial engineering. With approximately 15,000
members and 280 chapters worldwide, IIE’s primary mission is to
meet the ever-changing needs of industrial engineers, which includes
undergraduate and graduate students, engineering practitioners and
consultants in all industries, engineering managers, and engineers in
education, research, and government.
Institute of
Mathematical Statistics
International Association of Engineers
- IAENG is a non-profit international association for the engineers and
the computer scientists. IAENG has been found by a group of engineers
and computer scientists from over thirty different countries. The IAENG
members include research center heads, faculty deans, department heads,
professors, research scientists/engineers, experienced software
development directors and engineers, and university postgraduate and
