____ Scope ____

  Bin Packing and Placement problems are an old but still challenging
  topic that has been tackled with different approaches.

  On the one hand, the aim of this workshop is to share recent progress
  made on pure problems by using any technique (or the mix) like Mixed
  Integer Linear Programming, Local Search, or Constraint Programming.

  On the other hand, the aim is to present challenging problems formulated
  and/or solved by these methods, or challenging extensions that have a
  practical interest and for which pure methods do not directly work.

  Submitted papers can be

       * Extended Abstracts of new results or
       * Abstract of ongoing works
       * Systems presentations (with demos at the workshop)
       * Summaries of already accepted or recently published results

  on any topic concerning bin packing and placement constraints.

  For registration, travel, accomodation and venue, see the CPAIOR 2008
  web site.
