MAPSP 2015 - Second Call for Papers

Twelfth Workshop on Models and Algorithms for Planning and Scheduling Problems

MAPSP2015 will take place in a relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the Ardennes, a hilly and forested region of Belgium. There will be ample opportunity for hiking and other sporty leisure, as well as for tasting world-famous Belgian beers; furthermore, we expect to have a great scientific program!

Date: June 8-12, 2015
Location: La Roche-en-Ardenne, Belgium
Site: http://www.mapsp2015.com

MAPSP is a biennial workshop dedicated to all theoretical and practical aspects of scheduling, planning, and timetabling. Registration costs are 425 euro per person (including all meals), and room costs are either 47 or 62 euro per person per night (depending upon whether a room is shared).

Submissions:

MAPSP submissions undergo a selection process based on a light refereeing by the Program Committee. MAPSP does not publish proceedings other than a conference booklet (with an ISBN number). Hence, presenting your paper at MAPSP will not prevent you from submitting it to journals or to other conferences. Similarly, it is acceptable to submit a paper that was presented at an earlier conference.

Abstracts of 2-3 pages must be submitted using Easychair according to the guidelines at www.mapsp2015.com

We intend to publish a special issue of the Journal of Scheduling including some of the contributions presented at the workshop. Papers submitted for this special issue will undergo the usual reviewing process of Journal of Scheduling.
