SIGOPT:International Conference on Optimization (ICO 2004)February 15-18, 2004 Lutherstadt Wittenberg Land Sachsen-Anhalt, Germany |
For many years it is a good tradition that in regular intervals a SIGOPT conference takes place. It is meant as a platform for young researchers in the field of optimization.
Everyone of the appoximately 40 invited researchers will get the opportunity to present his or her results in a short talk (20-30 minutes).
The conference takes place in Lutherstadt Wittenberg, a beautiful old town with an important history. In 2002, one of the oldest universities of Germany "Leucorea-University Halle-Wittenberg" celebrated its 500'th birthday. The conference facilities are located in the old buildings of the LEUCOREA, a beautifully restored building of the former university of Wittenberg.
The costs of accomodation in single room and food amount to 150 Euro per person.
Participants are expected to arrive on Sunday afternoon. The workshop will start on Monday morning and will end on Wednesday afternoon. It includes an excursion on Tuesday afternoon to Wittenberg.
The special interest group for optimization, SIGOPT, was created in 1993 under the auspices of the Deutsche Mathematiker Vereinigung (DMV) with the purpose of encouraging cooperation among its members, and of facilitating communication between them. It is primarily intended to meet the needs of those interested in mathematical optimization, both theory and practice. SIGOPT provides a forum for discussing actual and future developments in a broad variety of disciplines associated with optimization, and actively supports interdisciplinary research and applications to industry. In particular, SIGOPT encourages students and younger scientists to become involved in research in optimization.
