The 6th edition of the Winter School on Network Optimization will take place at the Hotel Sana, Estoril, from the 16th to the 20th of January 2017. Its main objective is to provide an opportunity for PhD students to get together and attend high level courses in the field of Network Optimization. Non-PhD students are welcome to attend the school, but the number of participants is limited and priority will be given to PhD students.

Lecturers and subjects to be addressed:
- Angel Corberan (Univ.  Valencia): Arc routing problems with profits
- Arie Koster (RWTH Aachen Univ.): Robust optimization for network design and energy supply problems
- Gerhard Reinelt (Univ. Heidelberg): Ordering problems
- Giovanni Rinaldi (IASI): Maximum weight cuts in graphs and extensions
- Jose Valerio de Carvalho (Univ. Minho): Dual feasible functions to construct fast lower bounds

Since the first edition in 2009, the school has been part of the activities of the CIO (Centro de Investigação Operacional) University of Lisbon as well as of the ENOG (European Network Optimization Group).
CIO has been merged with the Centro de Matemática e Aplicações Fundamentais (CMAF). Since the 5th edition the event is part of the activities of the new CMAFCIO and is also endorsed by the EURO (the Association of European Societies) and  APDIO (the Portuguese OR society).

Potential participants are invited to submit their CVs to the address NetOpt2017@fc.ul.pt no later than the 31st October.
