Mr. Hajem Ati Daham:
He graduated from the University of Alqadisyah in 2000, and completed his master degree in OR from the University of Baghdad in Iraq in 2013. Before he came to the UK, he worked as a lecturer at the University of Al Muthanna in Iraq.
He is currently a PhD student in Operational Research at the department of Mathematical Science, University of Essex. His supervisor is Dr. Xinan Yang. His project research is focusing on investigating the optimal models to make decisions for the inland haulage delivery of orders. Inland transportation is an important part of orders import and export business. It is harder to manage than ocean shipping as it normally gets more conveyors and parties involved, and it has a significant portion of the total transportation cost. So, we will search for better management strategies. Our industrial partner is the Port of Felixstowe.
