===================================
CO 2008 is an International Symposium on Combinatorial Optimization.
It
is the next in a series of biennial conferences. The last few
conferences
were held in Porto (2006), Lancaster (2004), Paris (2002), Greenwich
(2000), Brussels (1998), and London (1996). CO 2008 is hosted by the
University of Warwick, UK.
PROGRAM TOPICS
The program topics will be on any subject related to theory and
applications of combinatorial optimization, which includes but not
limited to:
* Computational complexity
* Constraint satisfaction
* Crew scheduling
* Cutting and packing
* Exact and approximation algorithms
* Frequency assignment
* Graphs
* Heuristic methods
* Integer programming
* Location
* Meta-heuristics
* Network design
* Polyhedral theory
* Production and logistics scheduling
* Timetabling
* Vehicle routing and scheduling
PAPER SUBMISSION
Contributed papers are cordially invited. Please submit your
contribution on-line via EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/CO2008.
Your submission should be a one-page (A4) abstract, which includes a
list
of key words and is in the PDF format. A selection of accepted papers
will
be published in a special issue of Journal of Combinatorial
Optimization after
the normal review process.
