W. (Wilco) van den Heuvel

Wilco van den Heuvel is an assistant professor at the Econometric Institute of the Erasmus School of Economics. His research interests are in deterministic production planning, in particular in extensions of the economic lot-sizing model. The focus of the research is on developing efficient algorithms. Wilco received an EUR fellowship (awarded by the EUR to highly talented young researchers) and a Veni grant (awarded by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research to young researchers). Finally, his work is published in journals like Operations Research, International Journal of Production Research, European Journal of Operational Research, Operations Research Letters and Computers & Operations Research.
