In 2017, NATCOR will be running week-long residential courses in Stochastic Modelling, Simulation
and Combinatorial Optimisation. Although based in the UK, the courses are open to PhD students and post-docs from any country working in a relevant area, such as Operational Research, Statistics, Engineering, Computer Science or Quantitative Finance.

Detailed descriptions of these courses, and information about registration and accommodation fees may be found on our website (http://www.natcor.ac.uk). Our courses are approved by the UK Research Councils and also by EURO (the European Association of Operational Research Societies).

The 23rd Annual International Computing and Combinatorics Conference
(COCOON'17) will be held in Hong Kong, China, during August 3--5,
2017. Original research papers in the areas of algorithms, theory of
computation, computational complexity, and combinatorics related to
computing are solicited. In addition to theoretical results, we are
particularly interested in submissions that report on experimental and
applied research of general algorithmic interest. Special
consideration will be given to research that is motivated by
real-world problems. Experimental and applied papers are expected to
show convincingly the usefulness and efficiency of the algorithms
discussed in a practical setting.

Papers of high quality will be invited to special issues of
Algorithmica, Theoretical Computer Science (TCS), and Journal of
Combinatorial Optimization (JOCO).

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

Algorithms and Data Structures
Algorithmic Game Theory
Approximation Algorithms and Online Algorithms
Automata, Languages, Logic, and Computability
Complexity Theory
Computational Learning Theory and Knowledge Discovery
Cryptography, Reliability and Security, and Database Theory

Submission instructions
====================

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract of original
research on Computing and Combinatorics. Submissions must contain a
scholarly exposition of the ideas, techniques, and a full description
of the results achieved. A clear indication of the motivation and

CP2017: Call for Thematic Tracks
--------------------------------

The International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming will take place in Melbourne, Australia, from August 29 to September 1, 2017. This is the 23rd edition of the annual conference on all aspects of computing with constraints, including: theory, algorithms, environments, languages, models, systems, and applications such as decision making, resource allocation, scheduling, configuration, and planning.

Full details (soon) at http://cp2017.a4cp.org

Following on the successful introduction of THEMATIC TRACKS at CP2016, we are seeking proposals for tracks for 2017. Each track represents a particular sub-field or application area of constraint computation and has its own program sub-committee to ensure relevant reviewers. Both repeat tracks and new tracks are enthusiastically encouraged.

As an example, the CP2016 tracks were:
- testing and verification
- CP and biology
- computational sustainability
- preferences, social choice, and optimisation
- music

A far-from-exhaustive set of other suggestions:
- configuration
- CP, data mining, and machine learning
- CP and AI
- CP and Operations Research

!! Track topics are open to any relevant themes including those from CP2016. !!

Of course, CP2017 will continue to have TECHNICAL and APPLICATION tracks, as usual. This call is for thematic tracks beyond these.

Details for Proposers

Track chairs will have the following responsibilities, working with the CP2017 organizers:
- Recruitment of a track program committee
- Advertising and encouraging submissions, especially outside the usual CP channels
- Assignment of papers to reviewers
- Membership on the Senior Program Committee with associated reviewing, discussion, and meta-reviewing duties

Track proposals can be in the form of an email to Chris Beck (jcb@mie.utoronto.ca), the CP2017 Program Chair, containing:
- The names and email addresses of at most two track co-chairs (one is fine, too).
- A paragraph justifying and demonstrating the relevance of the theme to the CP community.
- A list of 6 to 10 people who have expressed interest in either serving on the program committee of or submitting a paper to the track.

As a general guideline, track chairs should be confident of at least a half-dozen submissions.

Potential chairs are encouraged to contact Chris Beck (jcb@mie.utoronto.ca) for informal discussions.

Deadline: October 31, 2017
Email: jcb@mie.utoronto.ca
