The Summer Palace of Empress Maria Theresia at Laxenburg, Austria, is the home of a unique experiment in international negotiations. The Processes of International Negotiation (PIN) Program is a group of international scholars whose secretariat is based at the International Institute of Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). The purpose of the PIN group is to conduct and organize research on a broad spectrum of topics related to the processes of international negotiation. Its objectives include disseminating new knowledge about negotiation as widely as possible, developing networks of scholars and practitioners interested in the subject, and generally advancing the improved study and practice of negotiation internationally.

The PIN Steering Committee is composed of seven scholars and practitioners from seven different countries and seven different disciplines:

Rudolf Avenhaus Statistician and game theorist from the German Armed Forces University of Munich	Franz Cede International lawyer and Austrian Ambassador to Brussels	Guy Olivier Faure Sociologist from the Sorbonne University		Victor A. Kremenyuk Political historian from the Russian Academy of Sciences
Paul W. Meerts Political scientist and diplomatic trainer from the Netherlands Institute of International Relations	Gunnar Sjöstedt Political economist from the Swedish Institute of International Affairs and the University of Stockholm	I. William Zartman Political scientist from the Johns Hopkins University
