MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING Series B
Special issue on POLYNOMIAL OPTIMIZATION
Second Call for Papers

Polynomial Optimization (PO) refers to optimization problems in which all
objective and constraint functions are polynomials. Such problems form an
important and remarkably general class of NP-hard global optimization
problems. A fascinating feature of PO is that it can be approached from
several different directions. Indeed, in addition to traditional techniques
drawn from operational research, computer science and numerical analysis,
new techniques have recently emerged based on concepts taken from
algebraic geometry, commutative algebra and moment theory. For this
reason, PO is a rapidly expanding field.

We are pleased to announce this special issue of Mathematical Programming
Series B on PO, the deadline for which is 30th November 2013. We welcome
papers on all aspects of PO, whether concerned with theory, applications,
algorithms or software. Since we expect a large number of submissions,
all papers that we receive will be refereed to a high standard. Papers that
are deemed to be of high quality, yet are not included in the special issue,
may be forwarded to either Mathematical Programming Series A or
Mathematical Programming Computation for consideration (with the agreement
of both the authors and the respective editor-in-chief).

Manuscripts must be submitted on-line via:
http://www.editorialmanager.com/mapr/
When prompted to Choose Article Type, please select
"S.I. : Polynomial Optimization - Series B" from the menu. Due to limits in
page volume, we request that initial submissions be no more than 25 pages
in length. We also request that papers use the standard Springer LaTeX
style "svjour3". The necessary files are available at:
www.eng.cam.ac.uk/~dr241/MPB/MPB-Springer-latex-style-files.zip.

Many thanks in advance for your contributions to this special issue.

The guest editors:
Jean-Bernard Lasserre (LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse)
Adam Letchford (Lancaster, UK)
Pablo Parrilo (MIT)
David Steurer (Cornell).

Call for Papers for the
17th Conference on
Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization
(IPCO XVII)
to be held at
Bonn, Germany,
June 23-25, 2014


Conference website for additional details and paper submission:
http://www.or.uni-bonn.de/ipco/


The IPCO conference is a forum for researchers and practitioners working on various aspects of integer programming and combinatorial optimization. The aim is to present recent developments in theory, computation, and applications. The scope of IPCO is viewed in a broad sense, to include algorithmic and structural results in integer programming and combinatorial optimization as well as revealing computational studies and novel applications of discrete optimization to practical problems.

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of their recent work by November 15, 2013; see the submission guidelines for more information. The program committee will select the papers to be presented on the basis of the submitted extended abstracts. Contributions are expected to be original, unpublished and not submitted to journals or conferences with proceedings before the notification date (January 31, 2014). Papers violating these requirements will not be considered by the Program Committee.

During the conference, approximately 33 papers will be presented in single-track sessions. Each lecture will be 30 minutes long. The proceedings will be published as Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science. They will contain extended abstracts of all accepted submissions. It is expected that revised and extended versions will subsequently be submitted for publication in appropriate journals. Each participant will receive a copy of the proceedings at the conference.


Important Dates:
Submission deadline: November 15, 2013 (23:59 CET).
Notification date: January 31, 2014
Conference: June 23-25, 2014
