Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 22nd Conference on Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization, IPCO 2021, which took place during May 19-21, 2021. The conference was organized by Georgia Institute of Technology and planned to take place it Atlanta, GA, USA, but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 33 papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 90 submissions. IPCO is under the auspices of the MathematicalOptimization Society, and it is an important forum for presenting the latest results of theory and practice of the various aspects of discrete optimization.
