6th International symposium on Combinatorial Optimization (ISCO 2020)
Friday, 17 January 2020

 

May 4-6, 2020 - Monteal - Canada (co-located with Optimization Days 2020)

 

Spring School "Data Science, Machine Learning and Optimization", May 2-3, 2020

 

CALL FOR PAPERS

 

THEME AND SCOPE

**ISCO is a biennial symposium whose aim is to bring together researchers from all the communities related to combinatorial optimization, including algorithms and complexity, mathematical programming and operations research. It is intended to be a forum for presenting original research in these areas and especially in their intersections. Quality papers on all aspects of combinatorial optimization, from mathematical foundations and theory of algorithms to computational studies and practical applications, are solicited.

 

SESSIONS**

The conference is organized into plenary and parallel sessions. The conference language is English. Each speaker can give only one talk. Proposals for invited sessions are welcome. Researchers who are interested in organizing an invited session should contact Bernard Gendron (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.).

 

CO-LOCATION WITH OPTIMIZATION DAYS 2020

This year's edition of ISCO will take place at the same time and location as Optimization Days 2020. ISCO participants will have access to plenary and parallel sessions of Optimization Days 2020, as well as to the Monday evening Optimization Days Wine and Cheese Reception. The Tuesday night ISCO Banquet will be reserved to ISCO participants.

 

SPRING SCHOOL

ISCO 2020 will be preceded by a school on "Data Science, Machine Learning and Optimization". Andrea Lodi and Elias Khalil from Polytechnique Montreal are organizing the school. Invited experts will give 16 hours of lectures**on May 2 and 3, 2020.

SUBMISSION - PUBLICATION

Papers presenting original unpublished results in all areas of combinatorial optimization and its applications are welcome.The submission deadline is January 17, 2020. Simultaneous submissions to other conferences with published proceedings or journals are not allowed. There are two types of submissions:

Regular papers up to 12 pages. The post-conference proceedings will be published by an international publisher (pending approval).
