The Second
International Conference on Optimization and Optimal Control
(ICOOC’2007), dedicated to the memory
of Oleg V.
Vasiliev, will
take place on July 17-20, 2007
in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
The
conference is sponsored by the National University of Mongolia
and co-sponsored by a number of other higher education and research
institutions.
The working language of the conference is English.
This year’s
conference on optimization and optimal control is the second event in
the
series of conferences started with the First International Conference
on
Applied Mathematics held in Ulaanbaatar
in August 2002. More than 100 participants from 9 countries have
attended the
first meeting, and their contributions appeared in a volume entitled
“Optimization and
Optimal Control” (ISBN 9812385975) published by the
World
Scientific Publishers. We expect a high rate of participation this year
as
well.
The
goal of ICOOC’2007 is to bring together engineers, scientists, and
mathematicians from a variety of related disciplines, who are at the
forefront
of their research fields, to exchange ideas and present original high
level
unpublished research in the areas of optimization and optimal control,
with
particular interests in the following topics, but not limited to,:
- Linear,
non-linear, combinatorial, parametric, stochastic, multilevel,
multi-objective and
global
optimization;
- Calculus of variations,
optimal control, variational inequalities and game
theory;
- Mathematical economics;
- Interdisciplinary
applications of optimization theory (economics, engineering
and general sciences);
- Biomathematics, protein
folding optimization.
The conference includes invited
lectures,
mini-symposia and peer reviewed contributed papers.
We
plan to put together, as guest editors,
a special volume of the journal “Optimization”,
a Springer
book of
tutorials/lectures, and, possibly, a special issue of Mongolian
Mathematical Journal based on a selection of papers presented at the
conference.
