IAP 2004 Activity


Airline Security: A Lost Cause?
Arnold Barnett
Thu Jan 22, 10:30am-12:00pm, E40-106

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event

The airline-security situation changes so rapidly that it is hard to predict what will seem most urgent in late January. Possible topics include profiling systems to identify "high risk" passengers, precautions for items carried in aircraft luggage compartments, and the recent abolition of certain security measures even though they cost practically nothing. We will approach all topics from an Operations Research perspective.
