This book presents selected proceedings from the 22nd biennial IFIP conference on System Modeling and Optimization, held in Turin, Italy in July of 2005. This edition of the conference is dedicated to the achievements of Camillo Possio, who was killed sixty years ago during the last air raid over Turin. System Modeling and Optimization covers optimization, oiptimization with PDE constraints, structural systems optimization, algorithms for linear and nonlinear programming, stochastic optimization, control and game theory, combinatorial and discrete optimization, identification and inverse problems, fault detection, shape identification, complex systems, stability and sensitivity analysis, neural networks, fractal and chaos, reliability, computational techniques in distributed systems and in information processing environments, transmission of information in complex systems, and database design.

We publish in this volume the plenary talks and a selection of the papers on numerics, optimization and their applications, presented at the 22nd Conference on System Modeling and Optimization, held at the Politecnico di Torino in July 2005. The conference has been organized by the Mathematical Department of the Politecnico di Torino. IFIP is a multinational federation of professional and technical organi- tions concerned with information processes. It was established in 1959 under the auspices of UNESCO. IFIP still mantains friendly connections with s- cialized agencies of the UN systems. It consists of Technical Committees. The Seventh Technical Committee, established in 1972, was created in 1968 by A.V. Balakrishnan, J.L. Lions and G.I. Marchuk with a joint conference held in Sanremo and Novosibirsk. The present edition of the conference is dedicated to Camillo Possio, lulled by a bomb during the last air raid over Torino, in the sixtieth anniversary of his death. The special session "e;On the Possio equation and its special role in aeroelasticity"e; was devoted to his achievements. The special session "e;Shape Analysis and optimization"e; commemorates the 100th anniversary of Pompeiu thesis.
