We invite young researchers from the field of Combinatorial Optimization
to the 19th workshop "Future Research in Combinatorial Optimization
(FRICO)" at the University of Cologne.


http://www.zaik.uni-koeln.de/FRICO2015/

11 August - 14 August 2015


The workshop aims at bringing together young researchers and encouraging
the exchange of new ideas. FRICO is intended to be a workshop in the
original meaning of the word. We encourage the submission and
presentation of own results (even work containing gaps and unsolved
problems) from various areas of combinatorial optimization.


Besides plenty of time between sessions, there will be a social program
that allows participants to exchange ideas and have fruitful discussions.


Participation is free of charge. As in the tradition of previous FRICOs,
there will be an award for the best talk. Further, we also plan to have
an industry day where practitioners from industry will highlight the
application of combinatorial optimization in practice.


Best regards


FRICO 2015 Team

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)

PhDs in Logic VII

May 14-16th, 2015

VIENNA, AUSTRIA

http://phdsinlogic.logic-cs.at

FINAL CALL FOR ABSTRACTS AND PARTICIPATION

PhDs in Logic is an annual graduate conference in logic. Each year we

invite four established researchers in various branches of logic to do a

tutorial on their work in two 45-minute sessions. We also give PhD

students the opportunity to do a twenty-minute presentation on (a) their

own work or (b) an overview of some topic in their field.

The conference includes the following tutorial speakers.

Thomas Eiter (Vienna University of Technology)

Michael Moortgat (Universiteit Utrecht)

Revantha Ramanayake (Vienna University of Technology)

Torsten Schaub (University Potsdam)

PhD students in logic with a background in philosophy, computer science,

mathematics or linguistics are the intended audience for these

tutorials. They are also the type of students we have in mind for our

thirty-minute student sessions. Students interested in doing a talk

should send a 500-1000 word blinded abstract to

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pil2015 by February 12th, 2015.

The selection of the talks will follow a double-blind review process.

Please make sure that your name and affiliation are not included in the

abstract.

We welcome students to participate in PhDs in Logic VII regardless of

whether they want to do a presentation. We also invite master students

in logic, first year postdocs, and logicians from disciplines other than

philosophy, computer science, mathematics and linguistics to apply.

Students interested in participating without giving a talk should

contact us at phdsinlogic@gmail.com.

For more information, visit our website at

http://phdsinlogic.logic-cs.at. In case you have any questions, please

do not hesitate to contact us via phdsinlogic@gmail.com.
