Scope

High-performance computing is very important for optimization. Large
practical optimization problems unsolvable with a single computer due
to the limited time always exist. Therefore, high-performance
computers and distributed computing systems are very helpful. On the
other hand optimization is helpful to high-performance computing in a
broader scope allowing efficient exploitation of resources. This
workshop aims to bring together researchers interested in both
high-performance computing and optimization to discuss recent trend in
the area.

********************************************************************************
