August 21-24, 2013
RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany.

Registration deadline: April 28, 2013

FRICO 2013 is the 16th event in a sequence of successful meetings and 
will take place from August 21-24, 2013 at RWTH Aachen University.

The workshop aims to bring together young researchers (Master students, 
PhD students and PostDocs) and to encourage the exchange of new ideas. 
The focus of the workshop is to present their own results as well as 
work in progress from various areas of combinatorial optimization.

FRICO is intended to be a workshop in the original meaning of the word. 
In particular, we encourage the submission and presentation of on-going 
and future research (even work containing gaps and unsolved problems). 
Besides plenty of time between sessions, there will be a social program 
that allows participants to exchange ideas and have fruitful discussions.

Similar to last year's FRICO, we plan to have an industry day where 
practitioners from the industry will highlight the application of 
combinatorial optimization in practice.

To enable students and young researchers without major financial backing 
to participate at FRICO, participation for young researchers is free of 
charge. Participants will only have to cover their travel and 
accommodation expenses.
