Society issues a call for pre-proposals to organize and host ISMP
2015, the triennial International Symposium on Mathematical
Programming.
ISMP is the flagship event of our society, regularly gathering over a
thousand scientists from around the world. The conference will be
held in or around the month of August, 2015. Hosting ISMP provides a
vital service to the mathematical optimization community and often has
a lasting effect on the visibility of the hosting institution. It
also presents a significant challenge. This call for pre-proposals is
addressed at local groups willing to take up that challenge.
Preliminary bids will be examined by the Symposium Advisory Committee
(SAC), which will then issue invitations for detailed bids. The final
decision will be made and announced during ISMP 2012 in Berlin.
Member of the SAC are
Jeff Linderoth, Chair <linderoth@wisc.edu>
Shabbir Ahmed, <sahmed@isye.gatech.edu>
Kurt Anstreicher <kurt-anstreicher@uiowa.edu>
Anders Forsgren, <andersf@kth.se>
Martine Labbe, <mlabbe@ulb.ac.be>
Philippe Toint <philippe.toint@fundp.ac.be>
Rüdiger Schultz <ruediger.schultz@uni-due.de>
Shuzhong Zhang, <zhangs@umn.edu>.
Preliminary bids should be brief and contain information pertaining to
the
1) Location,
2) Facilities: Campus? Hotel? Convention Center?,
3) Logistics: Accommodation and transportation, and
4) Likely local organizers.
Further information can be obtained from any member of the advisory
committee. Please address your preliminary bids until September 15,
2011 to Jeff Linderoth <linderoth@wisc.edu>.
