EU/MEeting 2012: free of charge workshop on

Metaheuristics for global challenges

We are in the world of today faced with a number of challenges, that may at first seem daunting, but are also seen from a research point-of-view highly interesting. We talk about sustainability in a number of situations eg. sustainability in the way we treat resources on the earth. Other challenges could be urbanisation and the pressure it puts on transport, planning of the environment etc. There are many more global challenges, challenges that are basically identical around the world and that to more or less extent reach beyond the boundaries of states and countries. Here metaheuristics (and Operations Research in general) can play an active role in coming up with solutions.
