Two-Day Workshop on

"MIXED-INTEGER NONLINEAR OPTIMIZATION METHODS FOR ENERGY SYSTEMS
ENGINEERING"
(http://www.or.rwth-aachen.de/minomese2015)

March 9-10, 2015, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany


Description
-----------

The OPTIMIZATION-BASED DESIGN OF ENERGY SYSTEMS generally leads to
mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems. In recent years, a
surge of interest in (non-convex) MINLP problems in the mathematical
optimization community produced remarkable algorithmic progress and
triggered new developments, in particular new implementations.

To benefit most from these advances, ENGINEERS AND MATHEMATICIANS should
tie up, each contributing their own expertise. Aim of this workshop is
to bring together researchers from both fields to learn about the latest
work and to foster collaborations.

The workshop consists of INVITED TALKS on recent work, complemented by
THREE KEYNOTES delivered by the following distinguished speakers.


Invited Speakers
----------------

* Prof. Dr. Zdravko Kravanja, University of Maribor, Slovenia: "Robust
MINLP for solving complex synthesis problems"
* Prof. Dr. Jeffrey T. Linderoth, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA:
"Theory of MINLPs"
* Dr. Stefan Vigerske, GAMS Software GmbH, Zuse Institute Berlin: "MINLP
Solver Technology"


Organization
------------

The number of participants is limited to 60. Registration to the
workshop is required. The fee amounts to 50 Euro (incl. lunch and coffee
& tea). See the workshop website at
http://www.or.rwth-aachen.de/minomese2015 for more details and registration.

Important Dates:
* January 31, 2015: Registration closes
* March 9-10, 2015: Workshop

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

NetSys 2015
2nd International Conference on Networked Systems
http://www.netsys2015.com

Cottbus, Germany, March 9-13, 2015
========================================================================

* Registration is open now: https://www.netsys2015.com/registration/
* Early registration deadline: January 31st, 2015

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

The Conference on Networked Systems ? NetSys 2015 ? provides an
international forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry,
and government to discuss recent innovations in the realm of networked
systems - including aspects of networking, distributed systems,
communications, middleware, and applications. NetSys is a biennial
conference that originates from the major scientific event on networked
systems in German-speaking countries KiVS (Kommunikation in Verteilten
Systemen) - a series of conferences that was founded more than 30 years
ago. In 2013 NetSys was first organized on an international scale in
Stuttgart. NetSys is organized by the special interest group
"Communication and Distributed Systems" (KUVS) of the German
Informatics Society (GI).

NetSys 2015 is sponsored by GI and VDE-ITG.
The conference receives Technical Co-Sponsorship from the IEEE.

Conference Highlights:
----------------------
This year's conference highlights include an outstanding technical
program on recent advances in computer communications and networking
comprising:

* Keynote addresses by Klara Nahrstedt (University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign, USA) and Marc Dacier (Qatar Computing Research
Institute)

* Poland is the NetSys?15 Guest of Honour. We look forward to keynotes
by Maciej Stroinski (Pozna? Supercomputing and Networking Center) and
Tadeusz Czachorski (Polish Academy of Sciences)

* 22 technical papers reporting original research on networking,
distributed systems, middleware, security and privacy aspects as well
as networked applications

* Two half-day workshops:
- Workshop on Middleware for a Smarter Use of Electric Energy
(MidSEE 2015)
- Workshop on Software-Defined Networking and Network Function
Virtualization for Flexible Network Management (SDNFlex 2015)

* Seven half-day tutorials:
- Algorithmic Methods for Complex Network Analysis
- Communications Security and Privacy of Smart Grid and Microgrid
Optimization
- Introduction to the Topology Management Tool (ToMaTo)
- Machine-to-Machine Communications and Internet of Things as
enablers of Smart City
- Semantic-based Management of Federated Infrastructures
- Software?defined Networking
- Vehicular Networking

* An excursion to the power station Schwarze Pumpe

* Software demonstrations and the Communication Software Award

* Doctoral forum with poster session
