The Origins of IPCO
The idea of organizing a conference on integer programming and combinatorial optimization
which consists of papers selected by a program committee and presented in a single stream
had its origin in 1987. Inspired by the FOCS (= Foundations Of Computer Science) and STOC
(= Symposium on the Theory Of Computation) meetings in the theoretical computer science
community, Ravi Kannan and Bill Pulleyblank got the idea to propose a conference with a
similar format for the mathematical programming community. They discussed the idea with the
Executive Committee of the what is today the Mathematical
Optimization Society (MOS) and received strong encouragement. The Society responded
positively and agreed to be an official sponsor. The Department of Combinatorics and
Optimization of the University of Waterloo agreed to be the host for the first meeting.
In 1988, the first IPCO program committee was formed. It consisted of Vasek Chvatal,
William Cunningham, Ravi Kannan, Richard Karp, George Nemhauser, William Pulleyblank, and
Paul Seymour. The meeting was formally announced at the MPS meeting in Tokyo, at the end of
August 1988. The submission deadline of the first IPCO was November 15, 1989. The program
committee met in early January 1990 in Oberwolfach, Germany, and in mid January 1990 at
Carnegie Mellon University, USA. Finally IPCO I took place in Waterloo, May 28-30, 1990.
Since then, IPCO has become one of the main events in mathematical programming. It has a
high level of quality and an excellent visibility within the community. The general issues
of IPCO are now handled by the IPCO steering commitee. By all
conceivable measures, the IPCO conference series is a success.
