for sessions and papers

Call for Sessions within the Stream
===== OPTIMIZATION FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORT =====
at the 21st IFORS Conference
July 17-21, 2017 in Quebec, Canada
Following the success of the Public Transport stream on previous EURO
conferences, IFORS 2017 will again offer a stream "Optimization for Public Transport"
organized by Marie Schmidt and Anita Schöbel.
We are now looking both for session organizers and for papers fitting in this stream!
Would you be interested to organize a session of 4 talks on some particular
topic within this stream?
This task involves choosing the specific topic, contacting speakers and handling their
submission in the online system of the conference, to which you will then get access.
Usually, but not necessarily, the session organizer is also session speaker and/or chair.
If you are interested, please let us know.
In case you plan to present a paper within the stream, but do not want to organize
a full session, please let us know as well. We are glad to send you a session code
such that you may submit your paper in an invited session.
We are looking forward to a successful Public Transportation stream at IFORS 2017
and to meeting you in Quebec!

Dear Colleagues,
We are happy to announce the second iteration of PACE, the Parameterized
Algorithms and Computational Experiments Challenge. The goal of PACE is
to investigate the applicability of algorithmic ideas studied and
developed in the subfields of multivariate, fine-grained, parameterized,
or fixed-parameter tractable algorithms. The challenge consists of two
separate tracks.
TRACK A (Treewidth Challenges)
1) Compute a tree-decomposition of minimum width. You have 30 minutes
per instance. Win by solving more instances than the other participants.
2) Compute some tree-decomposition. You have 30 minutes per instance.
Win by printing solutions of smaller width than the other participants.
Detailed instructions and fresh instance sets:
<https://pacechallenge.wordpress.com/pace-2017/track-a-treewidth/>
TRACK B (Minimum Fill-In Challenge)
Given an undirected graph G, compute a smallest set of edges E such that
adding E to G results in a chordal graph. You have 30 minutes per
instance. Win by solving more instances than the other participants.
Detailed instructions and an instance set:
