We would like to announce that the 29th edition of the annual workshop
Future Research in Combinatorial Optimization (FRICO) will take place from
August 10th to August 14th, 2026 at the Technical University of Berlin,
Germany. More information about FRICO 2026 can be found on our website:
https://www3.math.tu-berlin.de/combi/frico26/
FRICO aims to network doctoral students from research areas in and
adjacent to combinatorial optimization, including:
* Discrete Mathematics and Combinatorics
* Approximation Algorithms
* (Mixed Integer) Linear and Non-Linear Optimization
* Applications of Combinatorial Optimization
* Scheduling
* Randomized Algorithms
* Online Optimization
Each participant will be assigned a slot for a 20-minute presentation or a
5-minute elevator pitch talk. It is especially encouraged to present
ongoing research and open problems.
Thanks to our sponsors, FRICO does not have a conference fee. Moreover,
our sponsors will provide insights into applied optimization and career
prospects during the workshop.
Registration is now officially open for the PhD student workshop FRICO
2026 (Future Research in Combinatorial Optimization), taking place at TU
Berlin on August 10th-14th, 2026.
FRICO provides a platform for doctoral students to present ongoing
research and open problems, and connect with peers and industry partners.
