This is the second in a series of contributed, refereed volumes devoted to research in optimization by Australian researchers and their collaborators. These volumes are intended to have wide scope and include survey papers by established researchers providing up-to-date information on research directions. This volume includes survey and research papers on theories and methods of nonlinear programming, nonconvex and discrete optimization, stochastic linear programming, generalized convexity, complementarity and vector variational inequality problems, dynamic systems and optimal control and applications to traffic assignment models, train control, manufacturing systems and substrate diffusion of cutaneous tissue.
