Kjetil Haugen
I am born in 1959, (in Kristiansund) living in Molde, Norway. I am a professor of Logistics and Sport Management at Molde University College, Specialized University in Logistics. I hold a PhD in Management Science from the Norwegian Institute of Technology from 1991. I achieved a (full) professorship in Logistics in 2005 and (full) professorship in Sport Management in 2011. Lately, my research interests have moved from operations management-/logistics into sports economics/strategy. My main interest has been game theory applied in football, both as a tool to understand football economics as well as the game itself. I have published in Journals such as Public Choice, EJOR, Annals of Regional Science, INTERFACES, PLoS ONE, Journal of Sports Economics, European Sport Management Quarterly, Sport Management Review and Sport in Society among others. Finally, I am a massive supporter of Molde Football Club.

Logistics. The course is planned to be given at Molde University College -
Specialized University in Logistics, the rst time in fall 2010. This course is
a part of the Event Management programme launched in Molde, fall 2010.
To be able to understand this book, a basic knowledge in Logistics is
necessary. Some of the material is probably too advanced for readers with
only a basic knowledge of Logistics/Operations Management, and several
appendixes that signal this type of diculty are used. So, readers with only a
minor level of knowledge in logistics should probably avoid these appendixes.
In order to meet these constraints, the planned course will be accompanied
by another (standard) text book in logistics at an intermediate level - for
instance "Production and Operations Analysis", by S. Nahmias (Nahmias). The
basic idea in teaching the course, is to capture essential Logistics modelling
through selected topics in (e.g.) (Nahmias) and then continue and finish up withthe contents of this book.
The structure of the book is consciously kept at a minimal academic level
- in the sense that literature references are kept at a minimum. The reason
for such a choice is of course partly laziness, but also the wish to produce
something that is more easily accessible than normal research literature.
Economics and Game Theory. The course was given at Molde College for the
first time in spring 2003.
To be able to understand this book, a basic course in Game Theory is
necessary. Some of the material is probably too advanced for readers
with only a basic knowledge of Game Theory, and several appendixes
used here may signal this type of difficulty. Consequently, readers
with only a minor level of knowledge in Game Theory should probably
avoid these appendixes.
Many of the examples used to address game theoretic problems in
soccer are taken from Norwegian soccer. However, the thoughts, ideas
and results introduced by these examples are meant to be general, and the
contents should as such be interesting for any reader interested in both
soccer and Game Theory.
As many of the problems in the field of Operations Research deals with future planning and many future events are hard to predict with certainty, it is not hard to imagine the possible practical importance of SDP and related techniques. According to the old"gurus" in the field, Bellmann and Dreyfus, this - that is; the stochastic case - is always the actual situation."
