[DMANET] WCO first CFP

3nd Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO 2010)
Wisla, Poland, October 18-20, 2010

in the framework of IMCSIT 2010 - International Multiconference
on Computer Science and Information Technology

http://www.imcsit.org

====================

We invite original contributions related with both theoretical and practical aspects of optimization methods. The list of topics includes, but is not limited to:

- unconstrained and constrained optimization
- combinatorial optimization
- global optimization
- multiobjective and multimodal optimization
- dynamic and noisy optimization
- large scale optimization
- parallel and distributed approaches in optimization
- random search algorithms, simulated annealing, tabu search and other derivative free optimization methods
- interval methods
- nature inspired optimization methods (evolutionary algorithms, ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, immune artificial systems etc)
- hybrid optimization algorithms involving natural computing techniques and other global and local optimization methods
- memetic algorithms
- optimization methods for learning processes and data mining
- computational optimization methods in statistics, econometrics, finance, physics, medicine, biology, engineering etc.

====================
