ICMS 2016 Session on
MATHEMATICAL OPTIMIZATION
http://events.zib.de/ICMS_MathOpt_2016/
as part of
The 5th International Congress on Mathematical Software
July 11 - 14 2016, Berlin
http://icms2016.zib.de/
Aim and Scope
=============
One out of four mathematical software packages listed in the database
swMATH.org is categorized under the search term "optimization". This
indicates the prominent role of computational research in the field of
optimization, and vice versa. This session aims at spanning the broad
range of mathematical optimization software from algorithms for
continuous, convex optimization that exploit strong duality theory to
solver software for nonconvex problem classes, including packages that
support the modeling process.
Recent developments that deserve special, though not exclusive
attention are the integrated handling of nonconvex constraints from
discrete and continuous optimization, the exploitation of increasingly
available parallel hardware architecture, and arithmetically exact
methods that render optimization a tool for mathematical theory
exploitation. The session shall provide a forum for discussing common
and distinct challenges and future trends.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to
- linear and nonlinear programming solvers,
- conic optimization and interior-point methods,
- mixed-integer optimization,
- algorithms for complementarity problems,
- (mixed-integer) optimal control,
- multi-objective and multi-level optimization,
- modeling languages and solver interfaces,
- testing and benchmarking of optimization software,
- software design,
- parallel algorithms,
- numerical stability,
- optimization over large data sets,
- applications of optimization software in practice,
- etc.

Conference announcement
50 Years of the Hales-Jewett Theorem (May 6-8, 2016)
In 1963, Alfred Hales and Robert Jewett proved a theorem on colourings of
the discrete cube. This theorem, the Hales-Jewett theorem, has since become
a cornerstone of Ramsey theory and extremal combinatorics. During the last
50 years, many extensions of the original Hales-Jewett theorem have been
proved by a series of outstanding mathematicians. The aim of this
conference is to bring together three generations of mathematicians working
on problems related to the famous theorem of Hales and Jewett.
This conference will take place May 6-8, 2016, on the campus of Western
Washington University in Bellingham, WA (located two hours north of Seattle
and one hour south of Vancouver). The conference will feature Alfred W.
Hales (UCLA) and Robert I. Jewett (WWU) as guests of honour. The honorary
scientific chair is Ronald L. Graham
The conference website is: http://loglogn.wix.com/halesjewett Registration
is now open. There is no registration fee for the conference, but we ask
that participants register by April 4 to help for planning purposes. We
also ask that you please share this announcement with your friends and
colleagues.

FRICO 2016 http://cs.uos.de/frico2016
20th Workshop on Future Research in Combinatorial Optimization
August 2–5, 2016
Osnabrück University, Germany
**************************************************************
FRICO 2016 is the 20th event in a row of successful meetings
and will take place in the first week of August 2016 at
Osnabrück University, Germany.
FRICO 2016 aims to bring together young researchers (post-
graduate students, PhD students, postdocs) and to encourage
the exchange of new ideas. The focus of the meeting is to
present own results as well as work in progress from various
areas of Combinatorial Optimization and Operations Research.
FRICO is intended to be a workshop in the original meaning
of the word. In particular, we encourage the submission and
presentation of on-going and future research (even work
containing gaps and unsolved problems). Note that every
participant of the FRICO will have to give a talk. We will
also award the best talk.
In celebration of this 20th FRICO we are very pleased to
announce our invited speaker:
Prof. Dr. Jens Vygen
Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics,
University of Bonn
http://www.or.uni-bonn.de/~vygen/
Similar to last years' FRICOs, we plan to have an Industry
Day where practitioners from the industry will highlight
various applications of Combinatorial Optimization.
Besides plenty of time between sessions, there will be a
social and cultural program that allows participants to
exchange ideas and have fruitful discussions.
To enable students and researchers without major financial
backing to participate at FRICO, the participation is free
of charge. Participants only have to cover their travel and
accommodation expenses.
In order to register, please send an e-mail with your name,
your affiliation and a (preliminary) title to
The workshop is limited to 30 participants.
We recommend to register as soon as possible.
The whole event is sponsored by SIEMENS and INFORM.
More information can be found on the website:
Cheers
FRICO 2016 Team
PS: Although the FRICO 2016 begins at August 2, we are
planning a social dinner on August 1 to get to know each
other. Please keep that in mind when you're planning your
trip to Osnabrück.
