Call for Papers
This will be the fifth in a series of conferences that aims to bring together researchers developing and applying techniques from AI and OR to problems in operations management. Previous conferences held in 1997, 2001, 2005 and 2009 proved to be very successful and led to a total of six special issues of the Journal of the Operational Research Society and the International journal of Manufacturing Technology Management.
Researchers and practitioners from industry and academia are invited to submit papers in all areas related to aspects of design, development, testing and implementation of intelligent management systems in manufacturing and service operations covering but not restricted to:
*         Intelligent Media Operations
*         HealthCare, e-Health, m-Health
*         Knowledge Management in Operations
*         E-Business and E-Manufacturing
*         Finance and Credit Scoring
*         Logistics
*         Maintenance and Fault Diagnosis
*         Scheduling and Capacity Planning
*         Supply Chains and Inventory Management
*         Process Design, Quality Management & Control
*         Operations and Control of Intelligent Buildings

Papers describing case studies utilising or evaluating AI techniques such as Neural Networks, Data Mining, Knowledge Discovery, Semantic Ontologies, Knowledge Based Systems, Case Based Reasoning, Fuzzy Logic, Bayesian Networks, Agent Technology as well as Hybrid Intelligent techniques are particularly encouraged.
Key Dates & Deadlines
*         Indication of intention to present a paper A.S.A.P.
*         Extended abstract of around 500 words to be submitted by 18 January 2013.
*         Full papers to be submitted by 29 March 2013.
