Policy makers who run the complex network of diverse people, expected services
and aging infrastructure are on a constant search for more efficient ways to
analyze data, anticipate problems and coordinate resources in their cities.
Developing methods for fulfilling such a need involves, among other things,
data analytics and intelligent sensor dissemination, modeling human demands and
operations and planning, often under uncertainty.
This workshop has the purpose of bringing together scholars and practitioners
that work on the solution of problems related to the improvement of the quality
of life and the use of resources in cities, to make cities smarter.
We invite submissions of a short abstract (not more than 4000 characters)
describing original work on applications of methods, with special emphasis on
optimization, for "making our cities smarter".
Abstract should be submitted via EasyChair at:

Abstract should be submitted by:
Apr 12 2015
Techniques of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Constraint Programming
- Mathematical Programming
- Hybrid algorithms
- Interconnection between (multi-agent) Simulation and Optimization;

This workshop is organized within the CPAIOR 2015 Conference in Barcelona,
Spain on Monday May 18, 2015, and will include both invited and contributed
talks. The program/organizing committee will evaluate the submissions and a
selection of abstracts will be admitted for presentation at the workshop. We
encourage the submission of new challenging problems, including data instances.
