The 2024 iteration of the biennial Computational Techniques and Applications Conference (CTAC) will be held at Monash University from 19 to 22 November 2024. The CTAC meetings are the main event in numerical mathematics and scientific computing in Australia, and have been taking place biennially since 1981, the most recent being held in 2022 at QUT. 

As organisers of the numerical optimisation stream, we would like to invite you to submit an abstract for a contributed talk in this stream. We are interested in talks related to continuous optimisation, including topics with potential links to other CTAC streams (e.g. machine learning, inverse problems, uncertainty quantification, numerical PDEs). Please feel free to extend this invitation to others who may be interested in participating, including students/postdocs and visitors. There is a prize for best student talk.

Early bird registration closes on 1 June and abstract submission closes on 1 October.
