Call for papers: "Models and Algorithms for Applied Optimisation Problems"

For a special issue of the International Journal of Operational Research.

Optimisation techniques are extensively used for solving a wide range of problems related to engineering, science and business. This special issue aims to be a valuable collection of original contributions proposing novel mathematical models and solution algorithms to solve challenging problems. Works devoted to solving real-life optimisation problems are particularly welcome.

The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the 3rd International Conference and Numerical Analysis and Optimization (NAO2014), but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this call.

Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
  • Linear programming
  • Network models
  • Integer and mixed formulations
  • Stochastic programming
  • Non-linear programming
  • Heuristic techniques

Important Dates
Submission deadline: 31 December, 2014
Notification to authors: 30 April, 2015
Final versions due: 31 June, 2015
