| Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Over the years, Operational Research (OR) has been used extensively to support the forest
products industry and public forestry organizations (e.g., governments, environmental protection
groups) in their respective planning activities concerning the flow of wood fiber from the forest to
the customer. The applications deal with a wide range of problems, ranging from long-term
strategic problems related to forest management or company development to very short-term
operational problems, such as planning for real-time log/chip transportation or cutting. This paper
presents an overview of the different planning problems and reviews the past contributions in the
field of forestry, with a focus on applications and problem descriptions. In the context of the 50th
anniversary of the Canadian Operational Research Society, this paper also recognizes the
contributions of many Canadian researchers to the field of forestry management. | en |
