The Aussois Combinatorial Optimization Workshop is an international one week event that takes place every winter at the CNRS Centre Paul Langevin in Aussois (France), a ski resort in the Savoyard Alps. There were 26 editions of the Aussois Workshop so far. The first one took place in 1996 and the second in 1998. The editions of 2021 and 2022 did not take place because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Workshop aims at putting together senior and young specialists in the field of Discrete Mathematical Optimization to present and discuss their most recent research work in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

The participation is strictly restricted to the invited persons.

The organizers of the even year editions of the workshop are Karen Aardal, Brita Peis, and Rico Zenklusen. The odd year editions are organizied by Volker Kaibel, Gautier Stauffer, and Paolo Ventura. Previous organizers have been Michele Conforti (from 2010 to 2020), Michael Jünger (until 2017), Thomas Liebling (until 2008), François Margot (from 2016 to 2018), Denis Naddef (until 2014), Gerhard Reinelt (until 2017), Giovanni Rinaldi (until 2017), and Laurence Wolsey (until 2014).

The workshop is run on its traditional single-session format. As usual, we will have sessions during both the morning and late afternoon/evening, leaving time in the afternoon to admire the beautiful scenery and enjoy some skiing.
