Aims & Scope
The HM Workshops are intended to be an international forum for
researchers in the area of design, analysis, and experimental
evaluation of metaheuristics. Metaheuristics, such as simulated
annealing, evolutionary algorithms, tabu search, ant colony
optimization, scatter search and iterated local search, are
considered state-of-the-art methods for many problems. In
recent years, however, it has become evident that the
concentration on a sole metaheuristic is rather restrictive. A
skilled combination of concepts from different optimization
techniques can provide a more efficient behavior and a higher
flexibility when dealing with real-world and large-scale
problems.
Hybrid Metaheuristics are such techniques for optimization that
combine different metaheuristics or integrate AI/OR techniques
into metaheuristics. Previously organized Workshops were held
in Ischia Island (HM 2013), Vienna (HM 2010), Udine (HM 2009),
Malaga (HM 2008), Dortmund (HM 2007), Gran Canaria (HM 2006),
Barcelona (HM 2005), and Val?ncia (HM 2004).
HM2014 is organized as a non-profit event.
************************************************************************
Topics of Interest
Contributions solicited cover a variety of topics including but
not limited to:
- Novel combinations of components from different metaheuristics
- Hybridization of metaheuristics and AI/OR techniques
- Low-level hybridization
- High-level hybridization, portfolio techniques, expert systems
- Cooperative search
- Automated parameter tuning
- Empirical and statistical comparison
- Theoretical aspects of hybridization
- Parallelization
- Software libraries
************************************************************************

Motivation ?
Demographic change and increasing health expenditures in the world make the
healthcare delivery research a hot topic. Hospitals in the world are
becoming larger and larger to take advantage of the scale economic but also
become more and more complex to design and to operate. Aging population
makes chronic diseases increasingly important and leads to the need of
better disease prevention, diagnostic, treatment planning and proactive
cares. Patients are more and more concerned by healthcare safety and
traceability. Healthcare systems are also changing and new health services
such as home healthcare and telemedicine are growing. Most hospitals used to
empiric management are not prepared for and innovative systems engineering
approaches are needed.
Recent development of advance medical technologies makes the systems
engineering approach possible. The increasing availability of healthcare
relevant data makes possible better disease prevention, diagnostic and
healthcare system operations. Automation technologies such as robotics and
ICT technologies are making healthcare logistics more efficient and safer.
Innovative operations research techniques have been developed for a wide
range of healthcare applications such as operating room planning, emergency
department staffing, breast cancer screening, radiotherapy treatment
planning, home healthcare planning, long-term care planning and scheduling,
Scope and Topics ?
The goal of this IJPR special issue is to provide a comprehensive view of
health services improvement by systems engineering approaches such as
operations research, industrial engineering and control theories. It
includes, but not limited to, the following topics:
Healthcare delivery planning and scheduling
Hospital logistics & supply chain management
Health information analytics
Healthcare safety and traceability
Work-force staffing and planning
Emergency Department Models
Disease modelling and prevention
Clinical pathways and workflow modelling
Emergency response planning and evaluation
Home healthcare

Call for Papers
UNIF 2014
The 28th International Workshop on Unification
July 13, 2014. Vienna, Austria
a FLoC workshop hosted by RTA-TLCA and IJCAR
http://vsl2014.at/unif
====================================================
UNIF 2014 is the 28th event in a series of international meetings
devoted to
unification theory and its applications. Unification is concerned with the
problem of identifying terms, finding solutions for equations, or making
formulas equivalent. It is a fundamental process used in a number of fields
of computer science, including automated reasoning, term rewriting, logic
programming, natural language processing, program analysis, types, etc.
The International Workshop on Unification (UNIF) is a yearly forum for
researchers in unification theory and related fields to meet old and new
colleagues, to present recent (even unfinished) work, and to discuss new
ideas
and trends. It is also a good opportunity for young researchers and
scientists
working in related areas to get an overview of the current state of the
art in
unification theory.
Topics
------
A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest includes:
* syntactic and equational unification
* matching
* constraint solving
* unification in modal, temporal, and description logics
* narrowing
* disunification
* anti-unification
* semi-unification
* higher-order unification
* complexity issues
* implementation techniques
* applications
Submission
----------
Short papers or extended abstracts, up to 5 pages in EasyChair style,
should be
submitted electronically as PDF files through the EasyChair submission site:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=unif2014
Accepted abstracts will be presented at the workshop and included in the
preliminary proceedings, available in the electronic form at the
workshop and
also at the UNIF web page:
