[DMANET] ODSA 2010

Second Announcement

OPTIMAL DISCRETE STRUCTURES AND ALGORITHMS (ODSA 2010)

September 13-15, 2010, Rostock, Germany

http://www.math.uni-rostock.de/odsa/


The ODSA 2010 conference, to be held at the University of Rostock,
continues the ODSA series following previous conferences in 1997, 2000
and 2006. The University of Rostock was founded in 1419 and is the
oldest university in northern continental Europe. The old Hanse-town
Rostock is located about 200 km north of Berlin at the Baltic coast.

AIMS AND SCOPE

The conference aims at the interactions between several aspects of
Discrete Mathematics, Mathematical Optimization, Theoretical Computer
Science, and their applications. In particular, the scope of the
conference includes combinatorial optimization and algorithms on
discrete structures, extremal problems in posets, design theory,
coding theory, and graph theory.

ORGANIZERS

A. Brandst"adt and V.B. Le (Dept. of Computer Science),
K. Engel, H.-D. Gronau, R. Labahn and F. Pfender (Dept. of Mathematics).

INVITED SPEAKERS

Michal Karonski (Poznan)
Kurt Mehlhorn (Saarbruecken)
Walter Wallis (Carbondale)
Peter Widmayer (Zuerich)
Gerhard Woeginger (Eindhoven)

CONTRIBUTED TALKS

We invite submission of short abstracts of 25-minute talks to be
