- Innovating Mathematics for New Industrial Challenges
20 - 21 April 2017, Aston University, Birmingham, UK
CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTERS
The conference will aim to draw together the considerable community of researchers and practitioners who develop new mathematics of relevance to and which underpin applications in Operational Research (OR). It will take a comprehensive view, will showcase activity from across OR, and will welcome both contributions which have a clear application focus as well as those which are theoretically driven.
Contributions will be expected to showcase both significant new mathematics and OR relevance. The conference will host plenaries from leading international experts.
Invited Speakers:
Professor Jacek Gondzio (University of Edinburgh)
Professor Edward Kaplan (Yale School of Management)
Guillermo Ortega (European Space Agency)
Professor Bert Zwart (CWI Amsterdam)
Call for Papers: Papers will be considered for the conference based on a 300 word abstract for oral presentation. Abstracts should be submitted by Friday 30 December 2016 via https://my.ima.org.uk/*
Call for Posters: The poster session provides an opportunity for academics and practitioners to showcase their challenges and the latest developments across the academic-practitioner interface. We are inviting posters to showcase a problem you are working on, a challenge which you think could be solved by an academic-practitioner partnership, or a successful academic-practitioner collaboration. Posters will be considered for the conference based on a 300 word abstract. Abstracts should be submitted by Friday 24 February 2017 via https://my.ima.org.uk/*
