Dear Colleague,
Next July, two big OR conferences will be organized: on July 12-15 the 27th European Conference on Operational Research, EURO 2015 (http://www.euro2015.org/), in Glasgow, UK and on July 12-17 the 22nd International Symposium on Mathematical Programming, ISMP 2015 (http://www.ismp2015.org/), in Pittsburgh, USA.
We are organizing a stream/cluster devoted to Multiobjective Optimization at both these conferences. We invite you to organize a session in either of these conferences. If you are interested, please, let us know and we can include your session in the electronic Abstract Submission System and you can invite speakers to your session conveniently (a session can naturally have more than one organizer in which case you'll just have to decide who will chair the session). At this point, you can give a tentative title of your session and you can modify it later. Please, remember to mention which conference your session belongs to.
If you know a colleague who might be interested in organizing a session in either of the conferences, please, feel free to forward this invitation.
Each session at EURO2015 should consist of 4 talks and at ISMP 2015 of 3 talks. The EURO deadline for abstract is March 16, 2015 and the ISMP deadline is March 2, 2015.
It is naturally also possible to submit individual contributed abstracts. We shall create sessions of them if we find enough abstracts in the same area.
We hope that you are interested in organizing a session (or several sessions) or contributing you abstract and that together we can increase the visibility of multiobjective optimization in these conferences!
If you have any questions, please, do not? hesitate to contact us!
With best regards,
Kaisa Miettinen and Matthias Ehrgott
P.S. Please, remember also that the MCDM2015 conference will be organized in Hamburg on August 2-7, 2015, see http://www2.hsu-hh.de/logistik/MCDM-2015/ for further information

http://www.networks.imdea.org/sustainit2015/
April 14-15 2015, Madrid, Spain
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR PH.D. FORUM CONTRIBUTIONS
SustainIT 2015 will host a PhD Forum on Sustainable Internet and ICT
for Sustainability. The forum will give an opportunity to PhD students
for presenting their research work, including work in progress. A
major aim of the PhD Forum is to provide feedback to PhD work by
experienced researchers from industry and academia on the important
topics of eco-sustainability and energy-awareness by means of novel
ICT solutions. The forum will be organized as a poster session and
will include a short introduction by each student.
Current PhD students and researchers who completed their PhD
dissertations after December 2014 are encouraged to submit extended
abstracts. The PhD student and his/her advisor(s) are the envisioned
only authors. Submissions will be reviewed to ensure quality and
relevance. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to attend
SustainIT 2015 and present their work in form of a poster at the PhD
Forum. Accepted extended abstracts will appear in conference
proceedings.
Submission Guidelines
PhD students are invited to submit an extended abstract describing
current research and potential contributions to theory and innovation
in the areas of Sustainable Internet and ICT for Sustainability.
Extended abstracts should include the authors' names, affiliation, and
email address. Submissions must be PDF files, written in English, and
should adhere to the IEEE format and be no more than 3 pages in size
(all inclusive). Extended abstract papers must be submitted
electronically in PDF format through EDAS, PhD Forum track.
