Just a quick reminder about the FRICO 2016. We recommend to
register as soon as possible.

**************************************************************
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

frico2016@uos.de

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.

Dear colleagues,

There is much dissatisfaction with the current state of research publication, but little information on community attitudes and priorities. I have started a survey which I hope you will fill in (I estimate 10-15 minutes, and it is completely anonymous). The results will be made publicly available later this year. I hope that it will help to focus our efforts as a community by allowing us to work toward broadly agreed goals. I want to get as representative and as large a sample of the world mathematical community as possible. Please forward to your local colleagues.

Please answer this survey if and only if you have been involved with a mathematical journal as editor, reviewer/referee, author or reader in the last 3 years. By "mathematical" we also mean to include theoretical computer science journals and disciplinary journals used by applied mathematicians. Essentially, any journal covered by Mathematical Reviews qualifies.
