Call for sessions/papers within the stream "OR in Sports"
at the 21st IFORS Conference
July 17-21, 2017 in Quebec, Canada


We (Dries Goossens and James Cochran) are putting together a number of sessions on OR in Sports for the IFORS Meeting next July in Quebec City, Canada (more information about the conference can be found at http://ifors2017.ca).  We'd like to have a sports track covering various areas such as optimization, analytics, graph theory, mathematics, and statistics.

If you plan to present a paper within this stream (or if you want to organize a full session of 3-4 talks), please let us know (dries.goossens@ugent.be or jcochran@cba.ua.edu). We are glad to send you a session code such that you may submit your paper in an invited session. Note that the deadline for abstract submission is February 10, 2017.

Furthermore, if you are interested/involved in any quantitative research that is related to sports in a broad sense, you may want to enjoy a free membership of the "OR in Sports" working group (see orinsports.com). This group also maintains a list of conferences on OR/analytics and sports: http://orinsports.com/index.php/events/.


Best regards,
James and Dries

details, please, visit the conference site as the information is added
frequently.


Aims and objectives
-------------------

The joint conference aims to bring together researchers, in
particularly from Europe and China, in the field of Combinatorial
Optimization to present their work, share experiences, and discuss
recent advances in theory and applications. The primary objectives
are:
- exchanging results and experiences in solving real-world
combinatorial optimization problems
- strengthen the collaboration between researchers in Combinatorial
Optimization from Europe and China
- reporting on development and implementation of appropriate models
and efficient solution methods for combinatorial optimization
problems
- establishing networking contacts between individuals and research
groups working on related topics
- promoting the work on combinatorial optimization (theory and
applications) to the broader scientific community
- identifying challenging research problems for the field, as well as
promising research outlets (both in theory and applications)
- promoting interactions with researchers in other related fields


Scope and Topics
----------------

We seek submissions in all areas of combinatorial optimization from
theory through applications. Suggested, but not exclusive, topics
include:

- theory and applications of combinatorial optimization
- exact solution algorithms, approximation algorithms, heuristics, and
meta-heuristics for combinatorial optimization problems
- integer programming, global optimization, stochastic integer
programming, multi-objective programming, graph theory and network
flows
- application areas include logistics and supply chain optimization
manufacturing, energy production and distribution, land
consolidation telecommunications, bioinformatics, finance, discrete
tomography, discrete and hybrid dynamical systems, and other fields


Abstract submission
-------------------

Only electronic submissions will be accepted (in pdf format), via EURO
online system:

https://www.euro-online.org/conf/ecco2017/

The submission is limited to a half to one page abstract.

Two special issues (Journal of the Operations Research Society of
China, snd Discrete Applied Mathematics) will be dedicated to the
conference.

Call for Papers - ACM Workshop SecDef 2017

=============================================


Dear Colleagues,

It is our pleasure to announce the fourth ACM Workshop on Genetic and
Evolutionary Computation in Defense, Security, and Risk Management
(SecDef'2017) will be held in conjunction with the ACM Genetic and
Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO) in Berlin, Germany, July 15-19,
2017.

With the constant appearance of new threats, research in the areas of
defense, security and risk management has acquired an increasing importance
over the past few years. These new challenges often require innovative
solutions and computational intelligence techniques can play a significant
role in finding them.

We invite completed or ongoing work, with the aim to encourage
communication between active researchers and practitioners to better
understand the current scope of efforts within genetic and evolutionary
computation on defense, security and risk. The ultimate goal is to
understand, discuss, and help set future directions for our community.
Authors are invited to submit papers that fall into or are related to one
or multiple topic areas listed below:

Security:
- Intrusion Detection
- Anomaly Detection
- Signature-Based Detection
- Behavior Monitoring
- Network Traffic Analysis
- System Data Analysis
- Application Data Analysis
- Attack Prevention and Defense Systems
- Threat Forecasting Systems
- Anti Spam and/or Antivirus Systems
- Bring Your Own Device
- Critical Infrastructure Protection
