Le Grand Salon
Optimization problems of enormous size and complexity arise in areas from
genome sequencing to VLSI design. In this talk we discuss the challenges
in working with large-scale models by considering the well-known traveling
salesman problem, or TSP for short, which asks for the cheapest way to visit
a collection of cities and return to the starting point. For over fifty
years the study of the TSP has led to improved solution methods for a wide
range of practical problems. We will discuss the history and applications
of the TSP and the methods used to attack very large instances. Along the
way, we discuss the interplay of modern applied
mathematics and increasingly more powerful computing platforms, including
computational grids and distributed web-computing.

You are invited to contribute a presentation for this conference in one of the following formats.
A minisymposium consists of four 25-minute presentations, with an additional five minutes for discussion after each presentation. Prospective minisymposium organizers are asked to submit a proposal consisting of a title, a description (not to exceed 100 words), and a list of speakers and titles of their presentations using the Conference Management System available at:
http://www.siam.org/meetings/an03/part.htm
It is recommended that the minisymposium organizer make the first presentation. Each minisymposium speaker should submit a 75-word abstract. The Organizing Committee will referee contributed minisymposia. The number of minisymposia may be limited to retain an acceptable level of parallelism in the conference sessions.
For further minisymposium organizer and participant information, please
visit: http://www.siam.org/meetings/resources/miniguid.htm
Deadline for submission of minisymposium proposals is January 3,
2003. PASSED
CONTRIBUTED PRESENTATIONS IN LECTURE OR POSTER FORMAT
Contributed presentations in lecture or poster format are invited in all areas consistent with the conference themes. A lecture format involves a 15-minute oral presentation with an additional 5 minutes for discussion. A poster format involves the use of visual aids such as 8-1/2" x 11" sheets for mounting on a 4' x 4' poster board. A poster session is two hours long.

A poster format involves the use of visual aids such as 8-1/2" x 11" sheets for mounting on a 4' x 4' poster board. Poster presenters are requested to set up their poster material in Hochelaga 1, 2, and 3. Presenters may set up their posters on Sunday, June 15, between the hours of 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM. All materials must be posted by 8:00 PM Tuesday, the official start time of the session. Posters will remain on display through 12:00 PM on Thursday, June 19. Poster displays must be removed by 12:00 PM on Thursday. Posters remaining after this time will be discarded. SIAM is not responsible for discarded posters.
Every PLENARY SESSION ROOM will have TWO OVERHEAD PROJECTORS and TWO SCREENS, AND A DATA PROJECTOR.
All other breakout rooms will have one overhead projector, one screen, and a data projector. Speakers may order additional audio-visual equipment, other than the standard A/V set-up listed above, by contacting [email protected].
Registration information is now AVAILABLE!
The Montreal Grand Prix is scheduled for June 13- 15, 2003. This is a city wide event and hotel rooms are scarce!
There will not be a Short Course at this year's Annual Meeting. The CAIMS/SIAM Welcome Reception is scheduled for Sunday, June 15. We would suggest that you make your hotel reservations starting on Sunday, June 15 and if you wish you to take advantage of a Saturday night stay over plan to stay through Saturday, June 21st. SIAM does have some rooms blocked for the weekend during the Grand Prix but more rooms are available from the 15th - 21st of June.
Further general information will be posted here as information becomes available.
