Subject: New Book, Arc Routing: Problems, Methods, and Applications

Arc Routing: Problems, Methods, and Applications, by Ángel
Corberán and Gilbert Laporte, Editors.

xxii + 401 pages / Softcover / 978-1-611973-66-2 / List Price
$104.00 / MOS-SIAM Member Price $72.80 / Order Code MO20

This book provides a thorough and up-to-date discussion of arc routing
by world-renowned researchers. Organized by problem type, the book
offers a rigorous treatment of complexity issues, models, algorithms,
and applications. It opens with a historical perspective of the field
and is followed by three sections that cover complexity and the
Chinese Postman and the Rural Postman problems; the Capacitated Arc
Routing Problem and routing problems with min-max and profit
maximization objectives; and important applications, including meter
reading, snow removal, and waste collection.

The book will be of interest to practitioners, researchers, and
graduate students in operations research, engineering, logistics,
mathematics, and business.

Subject: Women in Optimization, Germany, Mar 2015

Workshop Women in Optimization
Academy of Sciences  & Humanities, Heidelberg; March 2 – 4, 2015
Supported by HGS MathComp, MATCH and KoroiBot
Target group: female junior researchers, PhD students and students of
mathematics with a focus on optimization

The goal of the workshop is to provide advanced scientific training in
the field of optimization as well as an opportunity for networking in
the optimization community.  By lectures of invited speakers working
in all areas of optimization in academia and industry we want to
present on the one hand a wide scientific spectrum of topics in
mathematical optimization as well as different possible career models
in this field. In addition to these lectures there will be ample
opportunities for discussions and an exchange of experiences.

Subject: Diff Eq and Applications/Applied Mathematics, Spain, Jun 2015

The 24th Congress on Differential Equations and Applications/14th
Applied Mathematics Congress (CEDYA/CMA 2015) will be hosted at the
University of Cadiz (Spain), on June, 8-12, 2015, in the trimillenary
city of Cadiz.

The Congress on Differential Equations and Applications initiative
arose from a group of mathematicians, mainly from applied mathematics
and mathematical analysis, in order to promote research in
Differential Equations, Numerical Analysis, Mechanics, Control and
Optimization. The first edition was held in 1978.  The congress will
feature the following plenary speakers: Henk Broer, Manuel Jesús
Castro Díaz, Dietmar Hömberg, Karl Kunisch, José Antonio Lozano
Alonso, Alfio Quarteroni, Tomas Sauer, María Elena Vázquez Cendón, and
Luis Vega González.

We invite scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and students
(graduate and predoctorate) in all areas of applied mathematics to
participate. There will be limited funding covering the inscription
fee.

Beside the invited plenary talks, there are two formats of
participation: special sessions and contributed talks.  Please refer
to the congress website for more details: http://cedya2015-en.uca.es
