Dear colleague,

we kindly want to bring this workshop/conference to your attention:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
   Workshop on Theory and Applications of Metaheuristic Algorithms  
 as part of the 17th Int. Conference on Computer Aided Systems Theory 
    http://eurocast2019.fulp.ulpgc.es/workshops-and-participation
----------------------------------------------------------------------

        February 17-22, 2019, Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Spain


*** Deadline for 2-page abstracts: November 15, 2018 ***

Workshop Scope

The workshop invites original work concerning all aspects of
metaheuristics and heuristic problem solving, in particular:

•	Theory and applications of metaheuristics such as
	Evolutionary Algorithms, GRASP, Iterated Greedy,
	Iterated Local Search, Large Neighborhood Search,
	Scatter Search, Simulated Annealing, Swarm Algorithms, 
	Tabu Search, and Variable Neighborhood Search
•	New algorithmic developments
•	Hybrid approaches
•	Mathematical programming based approaches, e.g. Matheuristics
•	Constraint programming based approaches
•	Parallel metaheuristics
•	Machine learning and simulation
•	Data driven modeling and prediction
•	Simulation based heuristic optimization
•	Applications of simulation based soft computing
•	Applications in combinatorial optimization, bio-and medical
	informatics, networks and telecommunications, logistics,
	scheduling, and transportation
 
PAPER SUBMISSION

An extended two-pages abstract, including references, with indication 
of the workshop (Theory and Applications of Metaheuristic Algorithms)
must be submitted at http://eurocast2019.fulp.ulpgc.es by *November 15, 2018*. 
Please follow the author instructions for Springer Lecture Notes on Computer
Science Series (LNCS). Authors will be notified of acceptance
around December 1, 2018. 

After the conference full papers will be invited and accepted ones will
be published in a *post-conference volume*. It is anticipated that these
final papers will be published in line with prior Eurocast meetings in
the Springer LNCS Series. These full papers will have to be submitted by
*April 30, 2019*.
