Abstract: The latest meeting in the series of International Conferences of Historical Geographers was held in Kyoto in 2009. The series originated in a meeting of Canadian and British historical geographers held in Kingston, Ontario, in 1975. Four subsequent meetings held in Britain, Canada and the USA saw an increasingly international participation and the sixth meeting, held in 1986, was accorded the title of the Sixth International Conference of Historical Geographers. Eight further such conferences have been held since then, some in locations well beyond Britain and North America. This paper records the basic historical and geographical characteristics of all of the meetings between 1975 and 2009. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

In recent years, the research in the field of optimization has been very active in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in China and Japan. To promote research activities further and bring significant impact on the development of research, the Second Japanese-Sino Optimization Meeting (JSOM2002) was held in Kyoto, Japan, on September 25-27, 2002. About 130 participants not only from Asia but also from North America and Europe attended the meeting and exchanged their ideas on the latest work in optimization and related areas. In response to our call-for-papers to a special issue for the meeting, a significant number of manuscripts were submitted for possible publication. After careful review, 17 papers have finally been accepted. Reflecting the wide scope of the meeting, these papers cover extremely diverse topics of theory and applications of methods in continuous optimization, discrete optimization, dynamic optimization, and stochastic optimization. They are published in this and the next issues of Optimization Methods & Software. We are thankful to all authors who submitted their papers to the special issue and all anonymous referees who kindly helped us by reviewing the manuscripts carefully. Last but not least, we are grateful to Oleg Burdakov for his constant and generous support. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
