Dear Colleagues,

Herewith we would like to once again point your attention to our workshop

* Recent Advances in Multi-Objective Optimization *
* September 12, 2014, Vienna, Austria *
* moo.univie.ac.at *

The workshop features two keynote talks by Matthias Ehrgott and Xavier
Gandibleux, and 11 invited talks, focusing on exact methods in the field
of integer multi-objective optimization.

The registration fee is 50 EUR (incl. dinner) and 35 EUR (NEW! without
dinner). PhD students are entitled to a reduced fee of 30 EUR which
includes the dinner.

Please register here: http://moo.univie.ac.at/?page_id=33

First announcement and call for papers (with apologies if you receive this
more than once):


MATCH-UP 2015: the Third International Workshop on Matching Under Preferences

16-17 April 2015
University of Glasgow, UK
http://www.optimalmatching.com/MATCHUP2015

co-located with Meeting of COST Action IC1205 on Computational Social Choice
http://www.optimalmatching.com/COST2015


MATCH-UP 2015 is the third workshop in the series of interdisciplinary and
international workshops on matching under preferences. The first in the
series took place in Reykjavik in 2008, whilst the second took place in
Budapest in 2012.

Background
----------
Matching problems with preferences occur in widespread applications such
as the assignment of school-leavers to universities, junior doctors to
hospitals, students to campus housing, children to schools, kidney
transplant patients to donors and so on. The common thread is that
individuals have preference lists over the possible outcomes and the task
is to find a matching of the participants that is in some sense optimal
with respect to these preferences.

The remit of this workshop is to explore matching problems with
preferences from the perspective of algorithms and complexity, discrete
mathematics, combinatorial optimization, game theory, mechanism design
and economics, and thus a key objective is to bring together the research
communities of the related areas.

List of topics
--------------
The matching problems under consideration include, but are not limited to:

* two-sided matchings involving agents on both sides (e.g. college
admissions, resident allocation, job markets, school choice, etc.)
* two-sided matchings involving agents and items (e.g. house allocation,
course allocation, project allocation, assigning papers to reviewers,
school choice, etc.)
* one-sided matchings (roommates problem, kidney exchanges, etc.)
* matching with payments (assignment game, etc.)

Invited speakers
----------------
* Katarina Cechlarova, Pavol Jozef Safarik University in Kosice
* Christine Cheng, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
* Herve Moulin, University of Glasgow

Submissions
-----------
We call for two types of contributed papers.

Format A:
* original contribution
* at most 12 pages
* accepted papers will be published in proceedings (however, this should
not prevent the simultaneous or subsequent submission of contributed
papers to other workshops, conferences or journals)

Format B:
* not necessarily original work
* no page limit
* only the abstract will be published in proceedings

Important dates
---------------
* Deadline for submission of contributed papers: 1 December 2014
* Notification of acceptance: 16 January 2015
* Early registration deadline: 2 March 2015
* Workshop: 16-17 April 2015

Committees
----------
Organising committee co-chairs:
David Manlove, University of Glasgow, UK
Baharak Rastegari, University of Glasgow, UK

Programme committee co-chairs:
Peter Biro, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Hungary
