MAPSP 2015 - Second Call for Papers

Twelfth Workshop on Models and Algorithms for Planning and Scheduling Problems

MAPSP2015 will take place in a relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the Ardennes, a hilly and forested region of Belgium. There will be ample opportunity for hiking and other sporty leisure, as well as for tasting world-famous Belgian beers; furthermore, we expect to have a great scientific program!

Date: June 8-12, 2015
Location: La Roche-en-Ardenne, Belgium
Site: http://www.mapsp2015.com

MAPSP is a biennial workshop dedicated to all theoretical and practical aspects of scheduling, planning, and timetabling. Registration costs are 425 euro per person (including all meals), and room costs are either 47 or 62 euro per person per night (depending upon whether a room is shared).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Submissions:

MAPSP submissions undergo a selection process based on a light refereeing by the Program Committee. MAPSP does not publish proceedings other than a conference booklet (with an ISBN number). Hence, presenting your paper at MAPSP will not prevent you from submitting it to journals or to other conferences. Similarly, it is acceptable to submit a paper that was presented at an earlier conference.

Abstracts of 2-3 pages must be submitted using Easychair according to the guidelines at www.mapsp2015.com

We intend to publish a special issue of the Journal of Scheduling including some of the contributions presented at the workshop. Papers submitted for this special issue will undergo the usual reviewing process of Journal of Scheduling.

DEMADYN?15 - CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

Hengstberger Symposium on (Non-)Optimal human decision making
in dynamic environments

March 2?4, 2015,
Internationales Wissenschaftsforum (IWH), Heidelberg, Germany.

http://www.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/groups/optimus/demadyn15/
==============================================================

Real-world decisions take place in complex dynamic environments under imperfect information. Situations develop dynamically and change as a consequence of decision made, often in ways that are difficult to predict. This poses particular challenges for decision makers and scientific investigators alike. Different scientific disciplines have applied different approaches to understand the problem from their particular perspective. The goal of this symposium is to explore opportunities for interaction: Complementary theories and methods provided by mathematics, economics, and psychology should be integrated for a more profound understanding of dynamic decision making. The symposium will focus on the questions of (a) what it means to make ?optimal? decisions in dynamic situations, (b) how and under which conditions optimal solutions can be determined, (c) to what extent formal optimality is an appropriate yardstick for often non-optimal human behavior, and (d) how human cognitive!
limitations can be integrated into models of (non-) optimal decision making.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- The role of learning in dynamic decision making
- Learning theories in dynamic environments and games
- Bounded rationality and deviations from rationality
- Formal models of dynamic decision processes
- Modeling and integration of cognitive limitations
- Optimal actions versus human decision makers' heuristics

Confirmed Invited Speakers

- Ido Erev (Technion, Haifa, Israel)
- John Hey (Centre for Experimental Economics, University of York, United Kingdom)
- Magda Osman (Queen Mary College, University of London, United Kingdom)
- Sebastian Sager (Otto von Guericke Universit?t, Magdeburg, Germany)

Target Audience

Researchers interested in an interdisciplinary approach to decision making in dynamic environments. Relevant fields include psychiatry, psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, mathematics, economics, computer science, statistics, and related disciplines. The workshop welcomes young researchers and is open to attendance of doctoral and graduate students.

Organizers

- Peter Duersch (Alfred-Weber Institute for Economics, Heidelberg University)
- Daniel Holt (Institute of Psychology, Heidelberg University)
- Christian Kirches (Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing, Heidelberg University)
