‘Optimization’ and ‘Computing’ are highly interconnected research domains. This intertwinement has become even more highlighted in recent years with the resurgence of learning-based approaches such as machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning and the emergence of concepts including crowdsourcing, smart and connected communities/systems, and autonomous and electric vehicles in various application domains. Therefore, this special issue seeks to rapidly disseminate concise and short high-quality articles (limited to a total of ten journal pages) to the community on recent advances in computational optimization and their modern applications.
Submission Deadline: December 1st, 2022 (We encourage early submissions)
