This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in July 2013 at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in Santiago, Chile. Organized by Dr. Alice E. Smith, Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering and Dr. Jorge F. Valenzuela, Professor and Chair of Industrial and Systems Engineering, both at Auburn University, the institute will focus on the transport and distribution of manufactured goods to customers, known as physical distribution systems. Managing distribution systems in globalized business environments is challenging due to the increasing complexity of production systems and supply networks, traditional efficiency concerns, quality, storage and transport aspects, and holistic approaches involving sustainability, security, and human factors. Thus, the modeling and design of physical distribution systems require a mastery of cutting edge technical tools and understanding of new approaches to design and operation. The PASI will provide participants with educational modules on various aspects of physical distribution systems, with an emphasis on multinational distribution systems at both the micro and macro levels. The micro level addresses such topics as warehousing, material handling, and facility layout while the macro level refers to facility location, supply networks, routing optimization, and collaborative logistics.This PASI brings together outstanding scholars and students from throughout the Americas to learn about many technical facets involved with complex distribution systems. It encompasses traditional small classroom experiences, hands-on group projects taken from actual distribution systems, and intensive field experiences. Knowledge will be disseminated widely through first hand contacts and through an open access web page of all educational materials and project outcomes. As such, it will benefit many other students and early career researchers in the fields of industrial engineering, systems engineering, operations research, operations management, applied mathematics and logistics. Additionally, the PASI will promote sustainable international collaborations among senior and junior researchers of different countries and regions.

该泛美高级研究所 (PASI) 颁奖典礼由 NSF 和能源部 (DOE) 共同支持，将于 2013 年 7 月在智利圣地亚哥的智利天主教大学举行，由 Alice E 博士组织。 Smith 是奥本大学工业与系统工程教授，Jorge F. Valenzuela 博士是奥本大学工业与系统工程教授兼主席，该研究所将专注于运输和配送由于生产系统和供应网络日益复杂、传统的效率问题、质量、存储和运输方面以及涉及可持续性的整体方法，在全球化商业环境中管理分销系统具有挑战性。因此，物流系统的建模和设计需要掌握尖端技术工具并了解设计和操作的新方法，PASI 将为参与者提供有关物流系统各个方面的教育模块。重点关注微观和宏观的跨国分销系统微观层面涉及仓储、物料搬运和设施布局等主题，宏观层面涉及设施选址、供应网络、路线优化和协作物流。本次 PASI 汇聚了来自美洲各地的优秀学者和学生进行学习。它包括传统的小课堂经验、来自实际分配系统的实践小组项目以及现场密集经验，知识将通过第一手接触和开放获取网页进行广泛传播。所有教育材料和项目成果。因此，它将使工业工程、系统工程、运筹学、运营管理、应用数学和物流领域的许多其他学生和早期职业研究人员受益。此外，PASI 将促进不同高级和初级研究人员之间的可持续国际合作。国家和地区。
