With apologies for cross-postings...
We cordially invite you to contribute to the fourteenth annual
"Modeling and OPtimization: Theory and Applications" (MOPTA) conference,
organized at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, August 17-19, 2016.
MOPTA aims at bringing together a diverse group of people from both
discrete and continuous optimization, working on both theoretical and
applied aspects. There will be invited plenary talks from distinguished
speakers as well as organized sessions and contributed talks, spread
over three days. Our target is to provide a diverse set of exciting new
developments from different areas of optimization research while at the
same time providing a setting which will allow increased interaction
among the participants. We aim to bring together researchers from both
the theoretical and applied communities in the framework of a
medium-scale event who do not usually have the chance to interact in
larger meetings.
We welcome contributed talks, and we are also very interested in hearing
from people who could organize a session centered around one of their
topics of expertise. MOPTA sessions have 3 speakers, with 30 mins per
presentation including Q&A's. Speakers will be kindly asked to submit
their abstract on the MOPTA website. The deadline for abstract
submission is May 20.
Confirmed plenary speakers:
* Sem Borst (Technische Universiteit Eindhoven)
* Gerard P. Cornuejols (Carnegie Mellon University)
* Michael P. Friedlander (University of California, Davis)
* Jacek Gondzio (The University of Edinburgh)
* David Simchi-Levi (MIT)
* Michael Pinedo (New York University)
* Robert Shorten (University College Dublin)
Please contact
