Parametric optimization is a part of mathematical programming and has emerged as an exciting research area in theory, numerics and applications. It investigates the properties of solutions to optimization problems under data perturbations or uncertainty. Many relations to other disciplines of operations research, like stochastic programming, complementarity problems, mixed-integer problems, model-building, numerical methods, multi-objective optimization and optimal control, originate from these properties.

A Special Issue of the journal Optimization is planned dedicated to the 12th Conference on Parametric Optimization and Related Topics (paraoptXII). 

Guest Editors:

• Mirjam Dür (University of Augsburg)
• Jan-Joachim Rückmann (University of Bergen)
• Oliver Stein (KIT)
• Ralf Werner (University of Augsburg)

Deadline for submission: January 31, 2023

The nearest airport to reach Augsburg by plane is Munich airport.

From Munich airport, you can reach Augsburg by a train ride of 1.5 - 2 hours. Train connections between Munich airport and Augsburg can be found here.

From the city center of Augsburg, the university campus can be reached by tram line 3. The stop is called "Universität" (University). For a map, see here.

The conference venue will be Building T on the university campus. A map indicating Building T can be found here.

The international conference series “Parametric Optimization and Related Topics” was founded in 1985 and, since then, took place in different places: the latter eight conferences were held in Enschede (1995), Tokyo (1997), Dubrovnik (1999), Puebla (2002), Cairo (2005), Cienfuegos (2007), Karlsruhe (2010), and Prague (2017).
