These are the proceedings of an Advanced Research Workshop (ARW),
sponsored by the NATO Science Panel, entitled "Pest Control:
Operations and Systems Analysis in Fruit Fly Management." The ARW
was held in Bad Windsheim, Germany during the week of 5 August
1985. The purpose of the ARW was to bring together scientists who
are interested in fruit fly problems, but who usually do not have
an opportunity to speak with each other, for an intense week of
interdisciplinary collaboration. In particular, the group present
at the ARW contained a mix of biologists, field ecologists,
mathematical modellers, operational program managers, economists
and social scientists. Each group has its own professional meetings
at which fruit fly problems are discussed, but the point of the ARW
was to learn about the problem from the perspective of other
fields, which are equally important for the ultimate management of
the fruit fly problems. (A list of attendees follows this preface.
) It appears that the ARW successfully met its objective of
bringing together a group for interdisciplinary considerations of
the problems; I hope that the proceedings do as well. The ARW was
structured with formal lectures in the mornings and workshops in
the afternoons. For the morning lectures, four different topics
were chosen: 1) basic biology and ecology, 2) trapping and
detection, 3) control and eradication, and 4) policy issues. Each
morning, one lecture from each area was presented.
