The 9th EUROPT Workshop on Advances in Continuous Optimization

The 9th EUROPT Workshop on Advances in Continuous Optimization

8 - 9 July, 2011

Aims and Scope: This meeting continues in the line of the EUROPT workshops, the first held in 2000 in Budapest, followed by the workshops in Rotterdam in 2001, Istanbul in 2003, Rhodes in 2004, Reykjavik in 2006, Prague in 2007, Remagen in 2009 and Aveiro in 2010. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners in continuous optimization and related fields to discuss and exchange their latest works.

Topics: The topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Applications of continuous optimization to combinatorial problems
  • Complexity and efficiency of optimization algorithms
  • Convex and nonsmooth optimization
  • Complementarily and variational problems
  • Derivative-free optimization
  • Global optimization
  • Large-scale optimization
  • Linear and nonlinear optimization
  • Optimal control
  • Multiobjective optimization
  • Robust optimization
  • Semi-definite programming
  • Semi-infinite programming
  • Stochastic optimization
