Title:	Quantitative Analysis Challenges in Modern Call Center Management
Location:	Stanford satellite campus, room 379; 1070 Arastradero Road, Palo Alto

Abstract:

Call centers are an increasingly important part of today’s business world, employing millions of agents across the globe and serving as a primary customer-facing channel for firms in many different industries. Call centers have been a fertile area for statisticians and operations research analysts in several areas, including forecasting models, capacity planning methods, queuing models, and scheduling models. In this talk, Vijay Mehrotra will describe an overall framework for call center planning and analysis and discuss some of his current work applying Bayesian decision theory to call center operations.
