This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization, IPCO 2017, held in Waterloo, IN, Canada, in June 2017.
The 36 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 submissions. The conference is a forum for researchers and practitioners working on various aspects of integer programming and combinatorial optimization. The aim is to present recent developments in theory, computation, and applications in these areas. The scope of IPCO is viewed in a broad sense, to include algorithmic and structural results in integer programming and combinatorial optimization as well as revealing computational studies and novel applications of discrete optimization to practical problems.
