[DMANET] Discrete Optimization Talks (DOTs): schedule Fall 2024

Discrete Optimization Talks (DOTs)
A virtual seminar series by the Mixed Integer Programming Society, a
section of the Mathematical Optimization Society.

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

We invite you to join us for the next season of Discrete Optimization Talks
(DOTs).
DOTs are virtual discrete optimization talks, organized by Silvia Di
Gregorio (Université Sorbonne Paris Nord), Aleksandr M. Kazachkov
(University of Florida) and Elias B. Khalil (University of Toronto). The
format is two 30-minute talks.
In the coming semester, DOTs will be held on the second Friday of the month
at 12:00pm Eastern Time over Zoom.

After a usual (in-person) seminar, you might grab a tea/coffee and chat
with other attendees. Why not here too? You are invited to stay on for some
informal discussion and socialization after the talks.

To attend, please subscribe via http://subscribe.discretopt.com. We will
send the link to join by the morning of the seminar.
Details for this season of DOTs can be found on our website:
https://talks.discreteopt.com/. There, you may also subscribe to our
calendar or watch recordings of previous talks. You may also sign up to
give a future DOT.

If you have any questions, please reach out to us at
discrete.opt.talks@gmail.com.
