[Please post - apologies for multiple copies.]

------------

Call for Papers

8th Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO 2014
Warsaw, Poland, September 13 - 16, 2015

organized in the framework of FEDERATED CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER SCIENCE AND
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
FedCSIS - 2015

http://www.fedcsis.org/

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

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

* unconstrained and constrained optimization
* combinatorial optimization
* continues optimization
* global optimization
* multiobjective optimization
* optimization in dynamic and/or noisy environments
* large scale optimization
* parallel and distributed approaches in optimization
* random search algorithms, simulated annealing, tabu search and other
derivative free optimization methods
* nature inspired optimization methods (evolutionary algorithms, ant colony
optimization, particle swarm optimization, immune artificial systems etc)
* hybrid optimization algorithms involving natural computing techniques and
other global and local optimization methods
*computational biology and optimization
* distance geometry and applications
* optimization methods for learning processes and data mining
* application of optimization methods on real life and industrial problems
* computational optimization methods in statistics, econometrics, finance,
physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, engineering etc.

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

Important dates:

24.04.2015 (April 24, 2015) – Full paper submission

01.06.2015 (June 01, 2015) - Position paper submission
