JuMP-dev 2026
JuMP-dev 2026 will be held Sunday, May 31 and Monday June 1, 2026 in Edinburgh, Scotland.
This is the weekend prior to SIAM OP26, which will be held June 2-5, 2026 in Edinburgh, Scotland.
JuMP-dev will be co-located with the 2026 HiGHS Workshop.
Outline
The purpose of JuMP-dev is to bring together students, researchers, and practitioners with interests in the methodological, algorithmic, and software aspects of JuMP and related packages. In particular, we invite new contributors and those who have not met the core development team.
All participants will uphold the JuMP Code of Conduct.
How do I attend?
To attend JuMP-dev, you must purchase a ticket.
If you use JuMP in a professional capacity, please consider purchasing a
“Supporter ticket”. If you purchase a supporter ticket, please email your
company logo to jump-dev-2026@googlegroups.com, and we will include it in our
promotional materials.
To request a visa invitation, please write to jump-dev-2026@googlegroups.com
with the subject line Visa invitation letter.
Talks
Talk submissions are now closed.
Schedule
The workshop is structured as two days of talks. Unlike previous years, there will not be a hackathon; the JuMP core contributors will be attending SIAM OP26.
- Saturday 30 May: pre-conference excursion
- Sunday 31 May: talks at the John McIntyre Conference Centre, dinner at the Salisbury Arms
- Monday 1 June: talks at the John McIntyre Conference Centre
On Monday 1 June, the 2026 HiGHS Workshop will be taking place in parallel in an adjacent room. Participants are welcome to move between streams.
Talk schedule
A preliminary schedule is as follows, and is subject to change at any time.

Venue
The workshop will take place in downtown Edinburgh.
Talks
JuMP-dev will be held at the John McIntyre Conference Centre. There are a wide range of accommodation options within walking distance.
Use the entrance on the south-west corner of the building. The registration desk is up the stairs. The lecture theatres are straight ahead, through a few sets of doors. (Go past the terrace on your right.) From the lounge area where the food will be served, the JuMP talks will be in the Prestonfield room on right and the HiGHS talks will be in the Holyrood room on your left.
Pre-conference excursion
On Saturday May 30, we will walk up Arthur’s Seat for a view of the city.
Meet at the Holyrood Carpark at 2pm.
Dinner
On Sunday night we will meet for an informal dinner at the Salisbury Arms. The pub is a short walk from the conference venue.
Accommodation
There are a wide variety of accommodation options nearby.
Accommodation is available at the conference venue, but it is open only from Monday 1 June. (You will need to book somewhere else for the weekend.) For more details, see Summer stays at the University of Edinburgh.
