<div dir="ltr"> </div><div dir="ltr">If you would be interested in organizing a session on some topic in computational optimization or software for optimization, please contact me as soon as possible. The deadline for submission of sessions is May 15. A session normally consists of four related talks. You'd be responsible for finding speakers and getting them to submit abstracts by the May 15 deadline. It is possible to include your own talk in the session. You'd also chair the session at the meeting.</div>
