[DMANET] Computational optimization

Call for Papers

17th International Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO22)
Sofia, Bulgaria, September 4-7, 2022

organized in the framework of CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER SCIENCE AND
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
FedCSIS - 2022

IEEE CS is a technical co-sponsor of FedCSIS 2022

https://fedcsis.org/2022/wco

===============================

We invite original contributions related to both theoretical and practical
aspects of optimization methods. The list of topics includes, but is not
limited to:

* combinatorial and continuous global optimization
* unconstrained and constrained optimization
* multiobjective and robust optimization
* optimization in dynamic and/or noisy environments
* optimization on graphs
* large-scale optimization, in parallel and distributed computational
environments
* meta-heuristics for optimization, nature-inspired approaches and any
other derivative-free methods
* exact/heuristic hybrid methods, involving natural computing techniques
and other global and local optimization methods
*numerical and heuristic methods for modeling

The applications of interest are included in the list below, but are not
limited to:

* classical operational research problems (knapsack, traveling salesman,
etc)
* computational biology and distance geometry
* data mining and knowledge discovery
* human motion simulations; crowd simulations
* industrial applications
* optimization in statistics, econometrics, finance, physics, chemistry,
biology, medicine, and engineering.
*environment modeling and optimization
===============================

Best paper award

The best WCO22 paper will be awarded during the social dinner of
FedCSIS2022.
The best paper will be selected by WCO22 co-Chairs by taking into
consideration the scores suggested by the reviewers, as well as the quality
of the given oral presentation.

===============================

Submission and Publication

* Authors should submit draft papers in PDF format.
* The total length of a paper should not exceed 10 pages for regular paper
and 4 pages for short papers (IEEE style). IEEE style templates are
available at http://www.fedcsis.org/.
* Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific
merit and relevance to the workshop.
* Accepted and presented papers will be published in the Conference
Proceedings and included in the IEEE Xplore database and submitted for
different indexations (Communication and Position papers will only appear
in the conference proceedings).
* Extended versions of selected papers presented at WCO21 will be published
in edited book of the series "Studies of Computational Intelligence",
Springer with SJR 183.
