As vice chair for computational optimization and software of the INFORMS Optimization Society, I've been asked to organize a cluster of sessions on this topic at the INFORMS meeting to be held in Phoenix on October 14-17, 2012. <br>
<br>If you would be interested in organizing a session on some topic in this area, please contact me as soon as possible. A session normally consists of four related talks. As session chair you'd be responsible for finding speakers and getting them to submit abstracts. It is possible to include your own talk in the session. You'd also normally chair the actual session. <br>
