The
First World Congress on Global Optimization in Engineering & Science
(WCGO2009) will be held on 1-5 June 2009 in Hunan University and
Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China. A primary goal of this congress is to
offer an international forum for researchers and practitioners in
the field to exchange ideas and present original research work on
the theory and applications of global optimization. The conference
will be organized by Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science of
the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hunan University, co-sponsored by
Polytechnic University of Hong Kong, Chinese University of Hong Kong
and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC).
