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

The International Network Optimization Conference (INOC 2022) provides a
forum for researchers in the broad field of network optimization to
present and publish their latest results and ongoing research. INOC is
the conference of the European Network Optimization Group (ENOG), a
working group of EURO. The conference has been held biyearly since 2003,
the latest in Avignon (France) in 2019. INOC 2022 will be held in March
2022, most probably in a hybrid format, physically at RWTH Aachen
University (Aachen, Germany) and online for those who are unable to attend.

Invited speakers
----------------

Markus Leitner (VU Amsterdam) - Influence maximization in (social) networks

Anita Schöbel (Frauenhofer ITWM, TU Kaiserslautern) -
Robust multi-objective optimization: Concepts, results and applications

J. Cole Smith (Syracuse University) - The Current and Future Waves of
Interdiction Models and Algorithms

Topics of Interest
------------------

INOC solicits contributions in the broad field of Network Optimization,
from the areas of Mathematical Optimization, Operations Research, and
Graph Theory. Also application-oriented network optimization from areas
like Telecommunications, Routing, and Logistics are most welcome. Topics
include but are not restricted to:

Algorithmic Game Theory on Networks
Approximation Algorithms
Combinatorial Optimization
Connectivity Problems
Graph Algorithms
Graph Theory
Heuristics and Meta-heuristics
Mixed Integer Linear Programming
Mixed Integer Nonlinear Optimization
Multi-objective Optimization
Multicommodity Flows
Network Design
Network Flows
Network Interdiction
Network Optimization
Network Reliability
Path and Tree Problems
Robust Optimization
Routing Algorithms
Stochastic Networks
Supply Chain Network Optimization
Sustainable Mobility and Transportation

Submission Guidelines
---------------------

INOC accepts both full papers to be published in the proceedings and
extended abstracts to be published at the conference only:

- Full papers describing original, not yet published or submitted work
can be up to 6 pages (with two columns) long.

- Extended abstracts describing recent results and ongoing research can
be up to 2 pages long.

All submission have to be formatted with the templates provided at the
submissions webpage. Contributions will be peer reviewed by the program
committee (seehttps://sites.google.com/view/inoc2022/ for the list of
committee members). The proceedings will be published at OpenProceedings.

After the conference, extended papers can be submitted to a special
issue of the journal Networks.
