CONNECTIONIST APPROACHES IN ECONOMICS AND MANAGEMENT SCIENCES (ACSEG)

SIXTH INTERNATIONAL MEETING

"ADVANCES IN COMPUTATIONAL MANAGEMENT"

Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Reus, Spain. December 10, 1999

CALL FOR PAPERS

Since the beginning of the 80s, important advances have been made in developing new approaches of bio-mimetic inspiration (neural nets, genetic algorithms, cellular automata, ). These approaches are of prime interest for researcher both in Economics and in Management Sciences.


The ACSEG International Meetings give the opportunity to assess the state-of-the-art in the domain, to delineate future developments, and to evidence the contribution of bio-mimetic methods to Economics and Management Sciences. They also allow the researchers to present their recent work, to exchange know-how, and to discuss the problems encountered in their research. Each year a selection of the best papers is edited in a book or a scientific magazine. In 1999, they will be submitted to the European Journal of Economic and Social Systems.

The main topic of the 6th ASCEG Meeting is on "ADVANCES IN COMPUTATIONAL MANAGEMENT" and will take place at the Facultat de Ciències Econòmiques i Empresarials of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili, in Reus, Spain, December 10 and 11. Organizers are the International Association for Fuzzy Management and Economy (SIGEF) and the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Reus - Tarragona).


You are invited to submit papers in Economics and Management (Marketing, Finance, Human Ressource Management, Logistics ) in which connexionist methods (Neural Networks, genetic Algoritmhs) are applied to the following topics either conceptually or empirically: · Simulation of complex processes · New approaches for data analysis · Forecasting · Modeling · Hybrid approaches combining connexionnist and classical methods · Numerical evaluation methods (prices of financial assets, _) Official languages of the meeting are English, French and Spanish.
