================================================= LAST CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: 6th AIMMS/MOPTA International Optimization Modeling Competition (http://coral.ie.lehigh.edu/~mopta/competition/) ================================================= Dear Colleagues, There is still time to encourage your students to participate in the sixth AIMMS/MOPTA Optimization Modeling Competition. The competition is jointly organized by the conference organizers of MOPTA (http://coral.ie.lehigh.edu/~mopta/) and AIMMS (http://www.aimms.com). Finalists are expected to attend and present their results at the 2014 MOPTA Conference to be held August 13-15, 2014 at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA, USA. Teams of at most three students can participate. The team leader has to be a graduate student, though the other members of the team can be advanced undergraduate students. Each member of the team must be registered as a full-time student at a recognized educational institution during the Spring term of the 2013-2014 academic year. Students with a background in optimization, regardless of their actual field of study, are eligible. Collaboration between students from different departments is strongly encouraged. Each team must declare a team advisor with which the team may consult about the problem and their solution. It is the team advisor’s responsibility to ensure that the students have appropriate knowledge for the competition. The team advisor should not be involved as a participant in the solution process. As the conference is international, so is the competition. Teams from all over the world can participate, as long as at least one team member can come to the conference, should the team make it to the final round. The official language of the competition is English. The competition problem has been posted; please visit: http://coral.ie.lehigh.edu/~mopta/competition/ for a description of the problem and further details. All teams must *register* for the competition in order to participate. Important Dates: Registration Due: 13 June 2014 (but please register as soon as you start work on the problem) Solutions Due: 13 June 2014 Finalists Chosen: 4 July 2014 Conference Begins: 13 August 2014 For questions, please contact Luis F.

============================================== SECOND CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS: 14th MOPTA Conference, Lehigh University, August 13-15, 2014 http://coral.ie.lehigh.edu/~mopta/ ============================================== Dear Friends and Colleagues With apologies for cross-postings... We cordially invite you to contribute to the fourteenth annual "Modeling and OPtimization: Theory and Applications" (MOPTA) conference, organized at Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, August 13-15, 2014. MOPTA aims at bringing together a diverse group of people from both discrete and continuous optimization, working on both theoretical and applied aspects. There will be invited plenary talks from distinguished speakers as well as organized sessions and contributed talks, spread over three days. Our target is to provide a diverse set of exciting new developments from different areas of optimization research while at the same time providing a setting which will allow increased interaction among the participants. We aim to bring together researchers from both the theoretical and applied communities in the framework of a medium-scale event who do not usually have the chance to interact in larger meetings. We welcome contributed talks, and we are also very interested in hearing from people who could organize a session centered around one of their topics of expertise. MOPTA sessions have 3 speakers, with 30 mins per presentation including Q&A's. Speakers will be kindly asked to submit their abstract on the MOPTA website. The deadline for abstract submission is June 13th. Please contact Boris Defourny (defourny(a)lehigh.edu) if you would like to organize a session for MOPTA. Boris Defourny.
