9th Workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS)September 10, 2009IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark Preliminary Call for PapersThe ATMOS 2009 workshop will be held in connection with ALGO 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark, on September 10, 2009. Since 2000, the series of ATMOS workshops brings together researchers and practitioners who are interested in all aspects of algorithmic methods and models for transportation optimization and provides a forum for the exchange and dissemination of new ideas and techniques. In the last years the scope of the workshop has been broadened to comprise all modes of transportation. Scheduled transportation networks give rise to very complex and large-scale network optimization problems requiring innovative solution techniques and ideas from mathematical optimization and theoretical computer science. Applicable tools and concepts include those from graph and network algorithms, combinatorial optimization, approximation and online algorithms, stochastic and robust optimization. Important DatesSubmission Deadline: June 7, 2009 - EXTENDED TO June 14, 2009 Notification to Authors: July 6, 2009 Final Version due: August 23, 2009 Workshop: September 10, 2009 TopicsWe invite papers for presentation at the workshop on optimization problems for scheduled passenger and freight transport, including — but not limited to —
Of particular interest are the successful integration of several of these subproblems or planning stages, algorithms operating in an online/realtime or stochastic setting and heuristic or approximate algorithms for real-world instances. SubmissionsAuthors are invited to submit an extended abstract or full paper of at most 12 pages. The paper should contain a succinct statement of the issues and of their motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief explanation of their significance, accessible to non-specialist readers. Proofs omitted due to space constraints can be put into an appendix to be read by the program committee members at their discretion. Papers must be submitted electronically at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=atmos2009. The submission must be received by 23:59 (GMT) on June 14, 2009. Each accepted paper must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors.ProceedingsThe proceedings will be published online on the Dagstuhl Research OnlinePublication Server (DROPS) http://drops.dagstuhl.de/Program Committee
