Apologies for multiple copies -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [SoCS 2020] Call for Participation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (with apologies for cross postings) The International Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SoCS) will be held from 26th - 28th May, 2020. Each year SoCS offers a unique opportunity to hear about the newest advances in the field of Heuristic and Combinatorial Search and to engage with some of the brightest minds working in those areas. SoCS attendees include world-leading academics, outstanding early career researchers and the next generation of leading young scientists. In this its 13th year the Symposium will take place online and our entire technical program and proceedings are being made available to all. This year SoCS has aligned itself with the 17th International Conference on the Integration of Constraint Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Operations Research (CPAIOR). To celebrate we have will have special activities which aim to bridge the gap between the area of Heuristic and Combinatorial Search and that of Discrete Optimisation. Among the many highlights at SoCS 2020: - 25 talks across five technical sessions (plus two award winners!) - Keynote talk from Rina Dechter (SoCS plenary) - Keynote talk Peter Stuckey (special activity, joint with CPAIOR) - Master Class sessions (special activity) where leading experts will disseminate recent developments on a variety of exciting search-based topics. Every talk will be streamed live on YouTube and will be subsequently made available for viewing on-demand. HOW TO PARTICIPATE: 1.
