No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Abhyuday Mandal, an ISyE PhD student, won the Best Student Paper Award at the INFORMS Meeting in Denver this October. The QSR (Quality, Statistics, Reliability) Section of INFORMS sponsors the competition. About 20 competitors submitted papers, and the QSR Section chose four for presentation at the Meeting. Mandal based his presentation on the written paper, "SELC: Sequential Elimination of Level Combinations by Means of Modified Genetic Algorithms". This paper was a joint effort with Jeff Wu (thesis advisor) and Kjell Johnson (Pfizer statistician).
