Special issue on Advances in Continuous Optimization on the occasion of EUROPT 2016

Theory and methods for continuous optimization and their application to practical problems continue to be of great value to practitioners. The aim of this Special Issue is to disseminate the best of the work presented at the 14 th EUROPT Workshop on Advances in Continuous Optimization, July 1-2, 2016, Warsaw, Poland

Topics of interest

The major topics of interest are continuous optimization theory, algorithms, software and

applications. It is expected that there will be a particular focus on

• Linear and nonlinear local optimization
• Optimal control and applications
• Large-scale optimization
• Multi-objective optimization
• Mixed integer nonlinear optimization
• Robust optimization and applications
• Derivative-free optimization
• Semi-infinite programming
• Global optimization
• Stochastic optimization
• Complementarity and variational problems
• Optimization in data mining
• Conic optimization and semi-definite programming
• Optimization in industry, business and finance
• Complexity and efficiency of optimization algorithms
• Analysis and engineering of optimization algorithms
• Convex and non-smooth optimization

Submission

Papers are required no later than November 1 st , 2016

The refereeing outcome should be provided by   March 1 st , 2017

Final papers should be submitted by May 1 st , 2017

Please submit manuscripts through the Springer online system (if you are a new author to the system you will be required to create a system login). https://www.editorialmanager.com/mmor/ and, when you come to "Choose Article Type", select "S.I.: EUROPT 2016 ".

Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out.

The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.

The journal imposes no hard limits on the paper length as long as what authors write is important. A paper length of about 20 pages in journal format is appreciated. Submissions that exceed 40 pages in journal format (including illustrations and references) should however be accompanied by a short justification as to why a briefer discussion of their research results.
