From dmanet@math.utwente.nl Sat Jul 3 20:48:58 1999 Date: Wed, 23 Jun 1999 10:26:58 +0200 From: Discrete Mathematics and Algorithms Network Reply-To: mastzgg@brunel.ac.uk To: DMA-LIST@NIC.SURFNET.NL Subject: Call for papers Call for papers Discrete Applied Mathematics will publish a special issue on "Foundations of Heuristics in Combinatorial Optimization". Papers are sought in the BROAD area of heuristics for combinatorial optimization problems with a focus on theoretical analysis. In particular, papers are solicited on design and/or analysis of heuristics with emphasis on worst-case bounds, domination analysis, probabilistic analysis, theoretical insights generated by experimental analysis, etc. All papers submitted for consideration will undergo standard review process. Four copies of the paper, following the standard guidelines for Discrete Applied Mathematics should be sent by 15 October 1999 to: Dr. Gregory Gutin, Department of Mathematics & Statistics, Brunel, The University of West London, Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3PH, UK or Dr. Abraham Punnen, Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science, University of New Brunswick, Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada E2L 4L5 G Gutin Brunel University, UK mastzgg@brunel.ac.uk ****************************************************** Contributions to be spread via DMANET are submitted to DMANET@math.utwente.nl Replies to a message carried on DMANET should NOT be addressed to DMANET but to the original sender.
