CALL FOR PAPERS:

Sessions on COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS, COMPUTATIONAL ECONOMETRICS and
STATISTICS & DECISION MAKING will be organized within the framework of
the following informal meeting:


                       International Workshop on
  Computational Management Science, Economics, Finance and Engineering
                  28-30 March 2003, Limassol, Cyprus.
       http://www.unine.ch/iiun/matrix/seminars/CMSEFE/index.html

Sponsored by the Society for Computational Economics.

The workshop aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners
to discuss recent developments in computational methods for decision
making and design. The workshop will cover computational methods and
tools for decision and control in economics, finance, management and
engineering.  This is intended to include areas such as data mining,
management science/operations research, econometrics, statistics,
computer science, numerical methods, engineering decision and design
problems such as control systems, process systems, power systems and
energy production.

Papers are solicited that deal significantly with computational
aspects of such topics as: linear and nonlinear systems, econometrics,
statistics, stochastic control, automatic differentiation, nonlinear
model solution methods, mathematical programming algorithms,
variational inequality and other algorithms for computing equilibria,
algorithmic models of decision making including genetic algorithms,
auction modeling, neural networks, artificial intelligence,
computability and complexity theory, parallel and supercomputing,
qualitative reasoning and models including qualitative simulation.

Tutorials will take place the 28th of March 2002.

Special Issue:

o Peer review papers will be considered for publication in a special
   issue of the journal Computational Management Science (URL:
   http://ce.buro.tue.nl/cms/cms-flyer.pdf).

o Papers containing a strong computational statistics component will
   be considered for publication in the journal Computational
   Statistics & Data Analysis (URL: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/csda).
   Standard peer review procedure will be applied.
