Dear colleagues,

The OR Society of Hungary is pleased to announce a EURO Summer Institute
(ESI) on Online Optimization. The ESI will take place at University of
Szeged, from 15th to 27th June in 2015, the homepage of
the event can be found at http://www.eswi.u-szeged.hu

EURO Summer and Winter Institutes (ESWI) provide an excellent forum for
PhD students and early career researchers to discuss their research at
length with experts in the field, as well as forming links with other
early stage researchers. For further details, see
http://www.euro-online.org/web/pages/458/summerwinter-institutes.

Around twenty early stage researchers from the EURO member societies will
be invited to participate at the ESWI. They must be very early career
academics (PhD students and/or those who have less than two years
research experience post PhD). They have to present the material of an
unpublished piece of work, discussing it with others and with the invited
senior experts in the field. The ESI will also present a series of
lectures
by the invited senior experts. After the ESI, the papers can be submitted
to a special issue of an OR publication (TBA).

Apart from the senior experts, no one can participate in an ESWI more than
once in their lifetime. EURO provides a substantial contribution towards
all the ESWI expenses ?on location? (room and board, social programs,
etc.) and sponsorship is being sought to meet the remaining part of these
expenses. The travel costs, however, must be borne by the participants
themselves, eventually with the support of their national OR societies.
Applicants have to submit an unpublished paper (or a 3-5 pages long report
on ongoing research work) to the Scientific Committee, along with a
curriculum vitae. The Committee will select and rank the candidates on the
basis of submitted papers, and afterwards channel this information to the
national OR societies for funding decisions.

Candidates who fulfill the eligibility rules but exceed the quota of 20
participants or coming from non EURO member society might be accepted, in
a limited number. These candidates should cover their own expenses. Fees
will be also required, but their amount will be specified later.

Interested candidates are asked to notify us in advance in order to help
us assess the likely number of participants. Please send an email to
esi15@inf.u-szeged.hu if you are planning to submit a paper.

Important dates:
31st January 2015 deadline for submission of applications
15th March 2015 selection of Candidates by the Scientific Committee and
communication to the National OR Societies
15th June- 27th June 2015 ESWI at the University of Szeged
30th September 2015 submission of final versions of papers for publication
in the special issue


Scientific Committee which is the same as the list of the planned senior
speakers

? Joan Boyar (University of Southern Denmark)
? Leah Epstein (University of Haifa, Israel)
? S?ndor Fekete (TU Braunschweig, Germany)
? G?bor Galambos (University of Szeged, Hungary)
? Csan?d Imreh (University of Szeged, Hungary)
? Piotr Krysta (University of Liverpool, United Kingdom)
? Jiri Sgall (Charles University Prague, Czech Republic)
? Gerhard Woeginger (TU Eindhoven, The Netherlands)

==============================================
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
2nd German Day on Computational Game Theory
February 11th, 2015, Department of Mathematics, TU Berlin
URL: www.tu-berlin.de/?155119
==============================================

The 2nd German Day on Computational Game Theory will take place on
Wednesday, February 11th, 2015, at the Department of Mathematics, TU
Berlin. The event will be preceded by a reception and an open problems
session in the afternoon of Tuesday 10th.

We want to bring together researchers who are interested in algorithmic or
computational aspects of game theory, social choice, and related areas.
The aim of this one-and-half-day-event is to provide an opportunity to
foster collaboration, present research and exchange ideas at an informal
and relaxed level.

The program will start about 10am, consist of two invited talks and about
10 contributed presentations of 15-20min. If you want to give a talk,
please send an email with title and abstract to klimm@math.tu-berlin.de no
later than January 28th, 2015.

We will be organizing a dinner for all participants after the end of the
workshop.

Participation in the workshop is free of charge and lunch and coffee will
be provided. For organizational purposes, please send an email to
klimm@math.tu-berlin.de by January 28th, 2015 if you plan to attend.
Please indicate in your registration email if you are interested in
joining the dinner.

Best regards,
Max Klimm

Call for Papers: special issue of ITOR on Variable Neighborhood Search
Variants - Recent Applications
(URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/itor.12141)

Guest Editors:
Angelo Sifaleras, University of Macedonia, Greece
Abraham Duarte, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, Spain
Nenad Mladenovic, University of Valenciennes, France
Kenneth Sorensen, University of Antwerp, Belgium

The Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) metaheuristic is based on
systematic changes in the neighborhood structure within a search, and has
been successfully applied for solving various combinatorial, global
optimization problems, and related tasks. This Call for Papers addresses
the recently growing interest of the research community working on the VNS
methodology.

The aim of this special issue of the International Transactions in
Operational Research (ITOR) is to gather not only recent algorithmic,
theoretical, and methodological developments in the field of Variable
Neighborhood Search, but also to publish surveys and recent applications
in this area. This special issue is also linked to the 3rd International
Conference dedicated to Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS?14), which was
held in Djerba, Tunisia, October 8-11, 2014.

The deadline for submission is February 28, 2015. Although we strongly
encourage authors who attended VNS?14 conference to submit their
manuscripts, this Call for Papers is also open to the entire community of
academics and practitioners. Contributions solicited cover a variety of
topics, including but not limited to:

- Supply chain optimization;
- Job shop scheduling problems;
- Multiobjective VNS;
- VNS hybrids; and
- Real world problems and innovative applications of VNS.

Each paper will be peer-reviewed according to the editorial policy of ITOR
(http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/118505725/home), published by
the International Federation of Operational Research Societies - IFORS.
Papers should be original, unpublished, and not currently under
consideration for publication elsewhere. They should be prepared according
to the instructions to authors that can be found in the journal homepage.
Authors should upload their contributions using the submission site
http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/itor, indicating in their cover letter
that the paper is intended for this special issue. Other inquiries should
be sent directly to any of the Guest Editors in charge of this issue:
Angelo Sifaleras (sifalera@uom.gr), Abraham Duarte
(abraham.duarte@urjc.es), Nenad Mladenovic
(nenad.mladenovic@univ-valenciennes.fr), and Kenneth Sorensen
(kenneth.sorensen@uantwerpen.be).
