Working to make Randomised Optimisation Algorithms (ROAs) highly competitive in practice, leading to their widespread adoption in the real world and to the sustained availability of software tools to support it. Competitiveness encompasses ROA performance, but also all aspects of their practical application, including the humans, processes, and technologies involved.
Applying for membership of a Working Group (WG) is the usual way of becoming involved in the Action. You should read the full Action description (MoU), inform the Action Chair of your interest, and then apply for membership of a single WG.
Management Committee (MC) nominations are handled through the COST National Coordinators. If your country is not fully represented in the MC yet, and you would like to serve in this capacity, please inform the Action Chair.
