Dear Colleagues,
it is my pleasure to announce that a new book has just been
published by Springer:
Economics and Computation
An Introduction to Algorithmic Game Theory,
Computational Social Choice, and Fair Division
Jörg Rothe (Editor)
http://www.springer.com/de/book/9783662479032
This textbook connects three vibrant areas at the interface
between economics and computer science: algorithmic game theory,
computational social choice, and fair division. It thus offers an
interdisciplinary treatment of collective decision making from an
economic and computational perspective. Part I introduces to
algorithmic game theory, focusing on both noncooperative and
cooperative game theory. Part II introduces to computational
social choice, focusing on both preference aggregation (voting)
and judgment aggregation. Part III introduces to fair division,
focusing on the division of both a single divisible resource
("cake-cutting") and multiple indivisible and unshareable resources
("multiagent resource allocation"). In all these parts, much weight
is given to the algorithmic and complexity-theoretic aspects of
problems arising in these areas, and the interconnections between
the three parts are of central interest.
- First textbook on computational social choice
- Connects economic and computational dimensions of collective
decision-making
- Explores the interrelations between algorithmic game theory,
computational social choice and fair division
- First book focusing on the algorithmic and complexity-theoretic
aspects of fair division

Authors may request that a regular paper be considered as a brief
announcement. As far as possible, the program committee will remain
blind to this request until status as a regular paper has been resolved.
Such a request will not affect the chances of the manuscript to be
accepted as a regular paper.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Call for Volume Chapters in Series
"Advances on Learning, Analytics and Intelligent Computing Systems"
published by Springer
Volume Title:
"Modelling, Computing and Data Handling Methodologies for Maritime
Transportation"
Purpose
Maritime transportation is the major conduit of international trade. In
terms of cost, maritime transport is very competitive against land and
airborne transport, increasing only by a few percent the total product cost.
On the other hand, maritime transportation takes longer or may cause harbor
congestion which further increase the voyage time. Furthermore, there are
difficulties in integrating this transportation mode efficiently with other
transport or distribution options. On top of that, the safety and the
environmental impact of maritime transportation, in particular, in the case
of sea accidents, are always two challenging issues.
As recent advances on maritime transportation require the synergy of both
computer science and maritime science, the main focus in this edited volume
will be upon the latest developments on IT methodologies for maritime
transportation. Computational intelligence, data mining and knowledge
discovery/representation, risk assessment methodologies as well as
combinatorial optimization are the IT fields that have gain importance in
maritime studies because of their potential in giving solutions for
effective sea transportation.
Book chapters on timely topics, state-of-the-art reviews providing a
comprehensive survey and evaluation of a subject area are welcomed for
submission. The main emphasis should be on the presentation of research
aiming for more effective and safer sea transportation, targeting complex
and large-scale optimization problems with conflicting criteria, requiring
innovative solution techniques and ideas from mathematical optimization,
theoretical computer science, massive data analysis and operations research.
Specifically, topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Graph and Network algorithms for Maritime Transportation
* Combinatorial optimization techniques for Maritime Transportation
* Environmentally Safe Shipping
* Safety and Security of Maritime Shipping
* GIS in Maritime Applications
* Spatiotemporal and Maritime Data Handling
* Route Planning and Monitoring
* Piracy Protection
* Risk Analysis, Assessment and Prediction
* Maritime Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Applications: surveillance,
maritime traffic control, anomaly detection, emergency management, situation
recognition, etc.
* Decision Support Tools for Maritime Transportation
* Integration of Heterogeneous Maritime Data Sources
Submission Information
The volume will be published by Springer in Series "Advances on Learning,
Analytics and Intelligent Computing Systems". First a chapter proposal of
1500 words should be sent to Volume Editors for evaluation. Upon proposal
acceptance, the authors will be called to submit the full manuscript before
a certain deadline. Then, the submissions will be double-blind reviewed for
deciding the chapters that will be included in the volume.
Important dates
Submission of chapter proposals: December 11, 2015
Notification for proposal acceptance: January 11, 2016
Submission of full chapters: April 11, 2016
Notification for chapter acceptance: May 31, 2016
Submission of the camera-ready chapters: July 1, 2016
