============================================================
Special Issue of the EURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics
on "Packing problems arising in transportation and logistics"
http://transp-or.epfl.ch/euroJournal/special.php?id=9
============================================================

Aim of the special issue is to provide an insight of the most recent
results of the research in new variants of packing and loading problems
arising in transportation and logistics applications. In particular, new
problems arising in Smart City, Last Mile integration, and City Logistics
are welcome, as well as in broader definitions of existing packing and
loading problems, including multi-dimensional and multi-attribute
problems, integration between packing and routing, and stochastic
problems. A special focus will be given to tactical and strategic
problems, as well as to the management of uncertainty of the parameters.
Possible topics include (but are not limited to):
- Integration of packing and routing
- Uncertainty management and stochastic packing problems
- Introduction of realistic additional constraints
- Impact of additional operational constraints on packing algorithms
- Generalized packing algorithms
- Multi-attribute packing problems
- Rich and generalized packing problems

A track of special sessions on "Structured Families of Graphs:
Mathematical and Algorithmic Aspects" will be organized at the 45th
Southeastern Conference of Combinatorics, Graph Theory and Computing
(Boca Raton, March 3-7, 2014). See website:
http:/www.math.fau.edu/cgtc/cgtc45 We will also take this opportunity to
celebrate the 65th birthday of Robert Jamison at our sessions.

Invited 35 minute talks will be given by
Derek Corneil, Martin Golumbic, Pavol Hell, Robert Jamison,
Ortrud Oellerman, Jerry Spinrad, Ann Trenk and Tom Trotter,

AND there is an open call (below) for a larger number of 15 minute contributed
talks, to be submitted in the usual Boca Conference tradition, spanning areas
related to Robert's research and the theme of the special track.

We're also happy to report that Maria Chudnovsky and Noga Alon have
accepted Fred Hoffman's invitation to be plenary speakers on Wednesday of the
general conference this year.

For some of us, the Boca Meeting has been off-our-radar-screen for a
while. We hope that this year will be an opportunity for many of us to get
together for research discussions and joint work, and to honor Robert.

Best wishes, Derek Corneil and Marty Golumbic

===============================================================

Call for 15 minute contributed talks for the

Special sessions on "Structured Families of Graphs:
Mathematical and Algorithmic Aspects"
celebrating the 65th birthday of Robert Jamison

Contributions spanning areas related to Robert's research are
particularly welcome for the special track.

Procedure:
1. Send an initial email to Martin Golumbic <golumbic@cs.haifa.ac.il>
indicating your expectation to submit a contributed talk. Our special
sessions will run in parallel throughout most of the week of the
conference.
2. Submit your abstract in the usual fashion to the
45th Southeastern Conference of Combinatorics, Graph Theory and Computing
(Boca Raton, March 3-7, 2014) according to the INSTRUCTIONS at the
website:
http:/www.math.fau.edu/cgtc/cgtc45/Contributed%20Papers.htm
including in the body of your email your preference to be scheduled in
the special sessions on Structured Families of Graphs.

Call for Sessions and Papers within the Stream

===== RAILWAY OPTIMIZATION =====

at the IFORS Conference

July 13-18, 2013 in Barcelona, Spain

www.ifors2014.org

Railway Optimization is a fruitful research topic in Operations Research.
Therefore I am looking for session organizers and for papers fitting in this stream.

Are you interested to organize a session of 4 talks on an appropriate topic in this stream?
Organizing a session involves choosing the topic, contacting speakers and handling their submission in the online system of the conference, to which you will get access.
Usually, but not necessarily, the organizer is also session speaker and/or session chair. If you are interested to organize a stream, please let me know, even if you are not yet fully sure.

In case you want to present a single paper in our stream, but do not want to organize a full session, please let me know the title and abstract.
Then your paper can be scheduled in an appropriate session in the stream. Papers contributed to the conference are much harder to trace later for inclusion in the correct stream.

I am looking forward to a successful stream on Railway Optimization and to meeting you in Barcelona!
