MOPTA and iMOPTA Poster Sessions and Competitions Thursday, August 15, 2024
Modeling and Optimization: Theory and Applications (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 a small number of invited talks from distinguished speakers and contributed talks, spread over three days. Our target is to present a diverse set of exciting new developments from different optimization areas 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 who do not usually have the chance to interact in the framework of a medium-scale event.

iMOPTA
The Industrial Modeling and Optimization: Theory and Applications (iMOPTA) 2024 is a new half-day satellite workshop created to present and discuss industrial innovation and the research behind it, and to connect industry and academia more actively. A number of invited industrial partners and academicians will present needs from the industry and applied academic research. The inaugural iMOPTA will take place in the afternoon of August 16, 2024.
