This workshop will be devoted to a discussion of the physics of systems with multi-minima energy landscapes, such as glasses, crystalline solids, large molecules and combinatorial optimization problems. Of particular interest is a characterization of the landscape geometry, of the system dynamics and of the relation between the two.
