Heuristic search and other forms of combinatorial search optimization are a very active areas of research in Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Planning and other areas of Computer Science. The International Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SoCS) is meant to bring researchers in such areas together to exchange their ideas and cross-fertilize the field.

SoCS is targeting researchers and submissions in all fields that use combinatorial search, including artificial intelligence, planning, robotics, constraint programming, meta-reasoning, operations research, navigation, and bioinformatics. We also invites submissions presenting real-world applications of heuristic search.

Dates: SoCS 2017 will be held on June 16-17, 2017.

Venue: SoCS 2017 will be held on in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, at the Sheraton Pittsburgh at Station Square. Registration: The registration site is now available here.
