Call for Papers
6th Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO 2013)
Krakow, Poland, September 8 - 11, 2013
organized in the framework of FEDERATED CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER SCIENCE
AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS
FedCSIS - 2013 -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
* 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, medicine, engineering etc
