INOC 2015 is the conference of the European Network Optimization Group (ENOG), a working group of EURO. The conference is an excellent forum of professionals for presenting and discussing mathematical models, methods and methodologies, as well as computational tools for tackling problems in graph and network optimization. The current event is the seventh in the series of the INOC editions, following the success of past events held in Tenerife (2013), Hamburg (2011), Pisa (2009), Spa (2007), Lisbon (2005), and Paris (2003).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Combinatorial and discrete optimization, integer, convex, quadratic and linear programming models, together with decomposition methods, are typical optimization approaches dealt with at the INOC conferences. Besides theoretical problems in graph theory, presented solutions are applicable to communication, transportation, and electrical grid networks.
The authors are encouraged to submit via EDAS their papers describing original, previously unpublished research results, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and developments in the area of network optimization.
Two types of publication of accepted papers will be offered:
1) Full papers to be published in Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics (ENDM), Elsevier. The total length of these papers should be between 4 and 8 pages prepared in LaTeX according to the ENDM template, 2) Extended abstracts to be distributed in a CD during the conference only.
The authors of the top INOC 2015 papers will be invited to prepare the extended versions of their papers for a special issue of Networks journal (Wiley).

USRR 2014 Fall
2nd International Workshop on Understanding the inter-play between Sustainability, Resilience, and Robustness in networks
co-located with RNDM 2014
--------------------------------------------------------------------- Paper submission web page: https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18741 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop Fee: 120 EUR (it also covers the Gala Dinner of RNDM 2014) http://www.rndm.pl/2014/program.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Context: ------------------ Emerging network sciences (interdisciplinary science of networks of networks) aim at discovering/identifying, formalizing/representing and analyzing common processes and phenomena underlying physical, chemical, biological, communication, social and cognitive networks. The fundamental objective of this emerging interdisciplinary field is to propose predictive models of these processes and phenomena in these networks that are characterized as adaptive, interdependent, unpredictable, nonlinear, and dynamic. From this perspective, a fundamental question arises as how interdependent network systems can be designed to support unpredictable disturbance and unexpected changes when vulnerable to natural disasters, (un)voluntary disruptions, malfunctions, and changes in its usage patterns due to socio-economic or technological changes. The latter changes could also impact operations for system maintenance as operators running an infrastructure might operate differently than system design assumes. For this purpose, a better understanding of the aforementioned properties characterizing interdependent networks requires to first capture the fundamental interplay between sustainability, resilience and robustness.
Workshop Objective: ------------------ Technical networks exhibit many inter-dependencies which are complex to measure and model but also lead to multi-objective decision problems where uncertainty becomes the transversal notion to capture. To this end, understanding the fundamental interplay between sustainability, resilience, and robustness becomes essential in order to rejuvenate and/or improve current design and evaluation methods that are currently unable to cope with this fundamental dimension.
Topics: ------------------ Authors are invited to submit papers that describe state-of-the-art research, present work-in-progress, or suggest open problems covering one or more of the topics of interest to the workshop: - Case studies about natural disasters, (un)voluntary disruptions, malfunctions, failures, etc. in (inter-dependent) network infrastructure: what happened and what lead to the situation? - Life cycle (data) analysis for inter-dependent networks: life stat. distributions, parametric and non-parametric methods, life data classification, competing failure modes analysis - Quantifying and evaluating the sustainability of (inter-dependent) networks - Robust optimization of large-scale (inter-dependent) networks - Robust decision methods for resilient (inter-dependent) networks - Robust, adaptive and stochastic optimal control for sustainable network systems design - Extend robustness analysis towards a rigorous approach to resiliency analysis by e.g. capturing and representing system dynamics at multiple time scale, multi-scale models and cross-interactions - Energy-aware resilience - Game theoretic and economic aspects of sustainability-vs-resilience trade-offs - Predictive simulation and uncertainty quantification
