PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS
International Workshop on New Topics in Parallel Computing in Optimization
In conjunction with PDP 2011, Ayia Napa, Cyprus, February 9-11, 2011
http://www.pdp2011.org
NEW ! Paper Submission Deadline: August 8, 2010
The International Workshop on New Topics in Parallel Computing in Optimization aims at providing a forum for scientific researchers and engineers on hot topics related to the solution of difficult optimization problems like 0-1 multidimensional knapsack problems, cutting stock problems, difficult nonlinear problems or large scale linear programming problems. Emphasis will be placed on new techniques for the solution of these problems and the use of new approaches like GPU computing and peer to peer computing.
Topics:
* Integer programming, linear programming, nonlinear programming
*
Parallel algorithms for combinatorial optimization
* distributed optimization algorithms
* Parallel metaheuristics
* GPU computing and the solution of optimization problems
* Peer to peer computing and optimization problems
Important Dates:
| Paper submission deadline: | August 8, 2010 |
| Notification of acceptance: | October 4, 2010 |
| Camera ready papers due: | October 29, 2010 |
| Conference: | February 9-11, 2011 |
Submission Details:
Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 5000 words in length and including a 150-200 word abstract. To facilitate an anonymous reviewing process, the first page of the paper should contain only the title and abstract. Proceedings will be published by Conference Publishing Service (CPS). Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present the paper at the Conference.
Papers submitted for the workshops or special sessions must be submitted through the conference submission system with an indication of the name of the workshop/special session. Papers must adhere to the formatting rules of the conference and will undergo the same review process as other papers submitted to the conference. Paper submission: http://www.pdp2011.org/
