This is the second call for papers of the XLVIII International Symposium on Operational Research (http://symopis2021.matf.bg.ac.rs/), which takes place in Banja Koviljaca, Serbia, from 20 to 23 September 2021.
SYM-OP-IS is an International Symposium that has been organized since 1974. It presents an annual gathering of OR researchers, both theoreticians and practitioners, in order to exchange scientific and technical information, convey experiences and present new results achieved in the development and application of OR methods. This year, the conference is organized by the Faculty of Mathematics - University of Belgrade (www.matf.bg.ac.rs) and Mathematical Institute of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts (www.mi.sanu.ac.rs), in cooperation with several other research, educational, and state institutions.
The Symposium Programme comprises of plenary lectures and numerous sections that accommodate the exchange of ideas among academia and industry, both from Serbia and abroad. The main aim of the Symposium is the development and applications of new Operational Research methods, models and techniques. Various sections ensure a valuable mixture of theoretical and practical aspects of Operational Research. A special section on the VNS method and its applications is dedicated to Prof. Nenad Mladenovic celebrating his 70th birthday and 45 years of research work.
