CALL FOR PAPERS - ATMOS 2018
-----------------------------------------------------------------
18th Workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling,
Optimization, and Systems
23-24 August 2018, Helsinki, Finland
http://algo2018.hiit.fi/atmos/
The workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling,
Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS) is an annual event bringing together
researchers and practitioners who are interested in all aspects of
algorithmic methods and models for transportation optimization. The
workshop provides a forum for the exchange and dissemination of new
ideas and techniques. The aim of making transportation better gives rise
to very complex and large-scale optimization problems requiring
innovative solution techniques and ideas from mathematical optimization,
theoretical computer science, and operations research. Applicable tools
and concepts include those from graph and network algorithms,
combinatorial optimization, approximation and online algorithms,
stochastic and robust optimization.
ATMOS 2018 will be part of ALGO 2018, which also hosts ESA, ALGOCLOUD,
ALGOSENSORS, IPEC, WABI, and WAOA.

Traffic Guidance
Electro Mobility
The workshop welcomes but is not limited to papers applying and
advancing the following techniques: Graph and Network Algorithms,
Combinatorial Optimization, Mathematical Programming, Approximation
Algorithms, Methods for the Integration of Planning Stages, Stochastic
and Robust Optimization, Online and Real-time Algorithms, Algorithmic
Game Theory, Heuristics for Real-world Instances, Simulation Tools.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSIONS
Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or full paper of at
most 12 pages (including title page and abstract, but not counting
references and an optional appendix). Submissions must be formatted in
LaTeX, using the OASIcs style file. The paper should contain a succinct
statement of the issues and of their motivation, a summary of the main
results, and a brief explanation of their significance, accessible to
non-specialist readers. Proofs omitted due to space constraints can be
put into an appendix to be read by the program committee members at
their discretion. Papers must be submitted electronically via the
EasyChair submisson system at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=atmos18. The submission must be
received by June 17, 2018. By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge
that in case of acceptance at least one of the authors must register at
ALGO 2018 or ATMOS 2018, attend the conference, and present the paper.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
DISSEMINATION, AWARDS
The proceedings of ATMOS 2018 will be published online and as
open-access in the Dagstuhl Open Access Series in Informatics (OASIcs).
Selected papers will be invited for publication in a special issue of
'NETWORKS'.
There will be a BEST PAPER award as well as a BEST VGI PAPER award for
the paper that best leverages volunteered geographic information in
meaningful and novel ways.
