The 16th Conference on Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization (IPCO XVI) will take place from March 18 to March 20, 2013 on the campus of Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María, in Valparaíso, Chile.

The IPCO conference is under the auspices of the Mathematical Optimization Society (formerly known as the Mathematical Programming Society). It is held every year, except for those in which the International Symposium on Mathematical Programming takes place. The conference is a forum for researchers and practitioners working on various aspects of integer programming and combinatorial optimization. The aim is to present recent developments in theory, computation, and applications in these areas.

IPCO 2013 is supported by
