*************************
European Chapter on Combinatorial Optimization (ECCO) 2018

To be held at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland
From June 14th to June 16th, 2018

*************************

The 31st Conference of the European Chapter on Combinatorial Optimization (ECCO) will be held at the University of fribourg (Switzerland) on June 14th to June 16th 2018.

ECCO is a working group of EURO (Association of European Operation Research Societies) that provides an excellent opportunity to discuss recent and important issues in Combinatorial Optimization and its applications.

*************************

Topics of interest

- theory and applications of combinatorial optimization
- exact solution algorithms, approximation algorithms, heuristics and meta-heurtistics for combinatorial optimization problems
- integer programming, global optimzation, stochastic integer programming, multi-objective programming, graph theory and network flows
- application areas include logistics and supply chain optimization, manufacturing, energy production and distribution, land consolidation, telecommunications, bioinformatics, finance, dicrete
  tomography, discrete and hybrid dynamical systems and other fields
