*In conjunction with
*The 11th Metaheuristics International Conference (MIC'2015)
*http://www.lifl.fr/MIC2015
*7-10 June, 2015
*Agadir, Morocco
*************************************************************************************
Submission Deadline: Feb 6, 2015
Selected best papers of McM'2015 will be considered for publication in
a special issue of the Wiley's journal of Concurrency and Computation:
Practice and Experience (CC-PE).
-----------------------------------------
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
-----------------------------------------
Plenty of hard problems in a wide range of application areas,
including engineering design, telecommunications, logistics, etc. have
been modelled and tackled successfully with metaheuristics
(evolutionary algorithms, scatter or swarm search, simulated
annealing, Tabu search, etc.).
Nowadays, optimization problems become increasingly large and complex,
forcing the use of parallel computing for their efficient and
effective resolution. On the other hand, parallel computing has
recently undergone a significant evolution in terms of performance and
energy consumption with the emergence of multi-core and many-core
computing technologies (GPU, MIC, etc.). Indeed, accelerators and
coprocessors have powered many parallel and/or distributed
environements including high-performance workstations, hybrid clusters
among them the top ranked Top500 and Green500 ones, and computational
grids and clouds.
The design and implementation of parallel metaheuristics for the above
environments raise several issues related in the same time to the
characteristics of these hardware execution machines and those of the
parallel models of metaheuristics. This workshop seeks to provide an
opportunity for the researchers to present their original
contributions on the joint use of advanced (discrete or continuous,
single or multi-objective, static or dynamic, deterministic or
stochastic, hybrid) optimization methods and distributed and/or
parallel multi/many-core computing, and any related issues.
-----------------------------------------
TOPICS INCLUDE (BUT NOT LIMITED TO):
-----------------------------------------
Parallel models (island, master-worker, multi-start, etc.) for
metaheuristics revisited for multi-core and/or many-core (MMC)
environments.
Parallel mechanisms for hybridization of metaheuristics on MMC environments.
Implementation of parallel metaheuristics on MMC workstations, MMC
clusters, MMC grids/clouds, etc.
Software frameworks for the design and implementation of parallel
and/or distributed MMC metaheuristics.
Computational/theoretical studies reporting results on solving
challenging problems using MMC computing.
Performance metrics for MMC parallel and/or distributed metaheuristics.
Energy-aware optimization for/with MMC parallel and/or distributed
metaheuristics.

WG 2015 CALL FOR PAPERS
41st International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science
June 17 - 19, 2015, Garching near Munich, Germany
Submission Deadline: Feb 28, 2015 (23:59:59 GMT/UTC)
http://www14.in.tum.de/WG2015
************************************************************************
The WG 2015 conference is the 41st edition of the WG series. It will take
place on the Garching campus of Technische Universit?t M?nchen (about
15km north of the city of Munich). The
conference will be from Wednesday, the 17th, to Friday, the 19th of June
2015,
with participants expected to arrive in Garching/Munich on the 16th of June.
AIMS AND SCOPE
***************
WG conferences aim to connect theory and applications by demonstrating how
graph-theoretic concepts can be applied in various areas of computer
science.
The goal is to present recent results and to identify and explore directions
for future research. Submitted papers should describe original results in
any
aspects of graph theory related to computer science, including but not
restricted to:
- design and analysis of sequential, parallel, randomized, parameterized and
distributed graph and network algorithms,
- structural graph theory with algorithmic or complexity applications,
- computational complexity of graph and network problems,
- graph grammars, graph rewriting systems and graph modeling,
- graph drawing and layouts,
- computational geometry,
- random graphs and models of the web and scale-free networks, and
- support of these concepts by suitable implementations and applications.
SUBMISSIONS AND PROCEEDINGS
***************
Contributors are invited to submit an extended abstract of at most 12 pages
Springer LNCS format including title, abstract and references. Proofs
omitted
due to space restrictions must be placed in an appendix, to be read by
program
committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission of papers to
any other conference with proceedings published or made publicly available,
or
submitting papers previously accepted for journal publication is not
allowed.
Authors are encouraged to post full versions of their submissions in a
freely
accessible repository such as the arXiv or ECCC.
Invited papers and accepted contributions will be published in the
conference
proceedings in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series of
Springer-Verlag.
WG 2015 offers an award for the best paper written by students only. Three
papers selected by the PC will be invited to contribute to a special section
in Algorithmica.

Subject: [DMANET] PhD position in QBF solving at Vienna University of
Technology, Austria
Message-ID: <36B6DBC8-20E5-4EF0-A947-043238BBAF45@szeider.net>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
There is an opening for a funded PhD position in Quantified Boolean Formula (QBF) solving at the Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria.
The PhD student will join Stefan Szeider's research group to develop and implement new methods for leveraging variable independence in QBF solvers, as part of a new research project funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF). Applicants are expected to have solid programming skills and a strong interest in theory. A background in QBF or SAT solving is of advantage.
The position is for a duration of three years (the expected duration for completing the PhD). The successful applicant is expected to start in 2015. The salary is according to standard FWF contracts for PhD candidates (approx. EUR 27,500 gross, p.a.), which allows for a convenient living in Vienna close to the city center.
The application should include the candidate's CV, an abstract of their diploma/masters thesis, a short motivation letter, and two letters of recommendation (all five items in a single pdf file). The application should also mention possible starting dates and should be sent to qbf@kr.tuwien.ac.at by February 15, 2015.
