Dear colleagues,
As you might know, Ridha Mahjoub was 60 years old in May. We would
take this opportunity to celebrate his scientific achievements and
his everlasting dynamism.
We organize a 2-days "birthday" workshop on "Polyhedral Approaches
for Combinatorial Optimization". This workshop will be held in the
Henri Poincarré Institute in Paris the 8th and 9th of December,
2016. We hope that this event will be an opportunity to share
scientific discussions and convivial times.
There is no registration fees, but for practical reasons we ask
you to fill and send back a short form (see the registration page
on the website).
We plan to offer the gala dinner to every participant.
You can find more informations on the workshop website:http://www.lamsade.dauphine.fr/~poc/PACO/index.html
With our best regards,
Pierre Pesneau
For the organizing committee
