ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
This meeting, the eighth in the series of IPCO (Integer Programming and
Combinatorial Optimization) conferences held every year
in which no MPS International
Symposium takes place, is a forum for
researchers and practitioners working on various aspects of integer programming
and combinatorial optimization. The aim is to present recent developments in
theory, computation, and applications of integer programming and combinatorial
optimization.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- approximation algorithms
- branch and bound algorithms
- computational biology
- computational complexity
- computational geometry
- cutting plane algorithms
- diophantine equations
- geometry of numbers
- graph and network algorithms
- integer programming
- matroids and submodular functions
- on-line algorithms
- polyhedral combinatorics
- scheduling theory and algorithms
- semidefinite programs
In all these areas, IPCO welcomes structural and algorithmic
results, revealing computational studies, and novel
applications of these techniques to practical problems. The
algorithms studied may be sequential or parallel, deterministic
or randomized.
During the three days, approximately thirty-six papers will be
presented, in a series of sequential (non-parallel) sessions.
Each lecture will be thirty minutes long.
The conference proceedings will
contain full texts of all presented papers. Copies will be
provided to all participants at registration time.
