You are cordially invited to participate in the upcoming workshop on

community together to discuss very recent developments in the field.
The workshop series consists of a single track of invited talks and a
poster session.

Tobias Achterberg, IBM CPLEX Optimization
Pietro Belotti, Clemson University
Greg Blekherman, Georgia Institute of Technology
Sergei Chubanov, University of Siegen
Daniel Dadush, New York University
Marco Di Summa, University of Padova
Yuri Faenza, EPFL Lausanne
Oktay Gunluk, IBM T.J. Watson Research
John Hooker, Carnegie Mellon University
Matthias Koeppe, University of California, Davis
Quentin Louveaux, University of Liege
Carla Michini, ETH Zurich
Marco Molinaro, Carnegie Mellon University
Eduardo Moreno, Universidad Adolfo Ibanez
George Nemhauser, Georgia Institute of Technology

Mohit Singh, McGill University
Gautier Stauffer, University of Bordeaux I
Mathieu Van Vyve, Catholic University of Louvain
Juan Pablo Vielma, MIT
Laurence Wolsey, Catholic University of Louvain

A poster session will be held the first evening of the workshop (July
22). All workshop participants are invited to submit an abstract.
There will be an award for the best poster presented by a student or
postdoctoral researcher. To submit an abstract, please email a two
page PDF containing a detailed abstract of the poster to
mip2013 at discovery.wisc.edu by April 1, 2013. Space for posters may be
limited, and the abstract will be used to decide which posters are
accepted, so it is important that the abstract provide a good
description of the research to be presented. We expect to send out
notifications by May 1, 2013.

The workshop is designed to provide ample time for discussion and
interaction between the participants, as one of its aims is to
facilitate research collaboration. Thanks to the generous support by
our sponsors, registration is free, and travel support is available
for students and postdocs who present posters at the workshop.
Students and postdocs who wish to apply for travel support must submit
a poster abstract by the April 1 deadline to be considered for
funding. We expect to make funding decisions by May 1, 2013.

See you in Madison!

Sincerely,

Amitabh Basu, University of California, Davis
Daniel Bienstock, Columbia University
Alberto Del Pia, ETH Zurich
