Special session “Mathematical and Computational Optimisation” in 60th AustMS meeting

Dear Colleagues,

The 60th annual meeting of the Australian Mathematical Society will be held by the Mathematical Sciences Institute at the Australian National University from the 5–8 December 2016. A website for the conference is available at:

http://maths.anu.edu.au/events/austms-meeting-2016

It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the special session “Mathematical and Computational Optimisation” and hope that you will agree to present a 20-minutes’ talk.

This special session will focus on new mathematical and computational developments and their applications in continuous and discrete optimisation, as well as in optimal control and calculus of variations.

Our special session’s field aligns with that of the recently created special interest group, Mathematics of Computation and Optimisation (MoCaO) https://mocao.mathsig.org.

Hence, if you are a member of MoCaO, please consider presenting at our special session!

Please do encourage participation of your postdocs and doctoral students at our special session. Student members of AustMS who are giving a conference talk at the meeting may be eligible for a travel costs subsidy. An online form for claiming travel expenses is available at the link

Please let us know your interest by September 1st, 2016.

Best regards, and looking forward to meeting you at our special session
