Hi All
May we remind you that the final submission date for full papers to the Special Issue of the European Journal of Decision Processes on Risk Management is September 30th. We are very excited about this issue. We already have some excellent proposals and abstracts, but that does not mean that we cannot consider further papers: only that a full paper will need be submitted now. We can promise that it will be a full special issue with a range of excellent papers exploring interconnections between decision processes and risk management.
Detailed call below
Simon French, Alec Morton and Ortwin Renn

The new European Journal of Decision Processes founded by EURO is preparing a special issue on risk Management.
CALL FOR PAPERS
Special Issue on Risk Management
Guest Editors Simon French (University of Warwick)
Alec Morton (London School of Economics)
Ortwin Renn (University of Stuttgart)
Motivation
Most decision making involves dealing with uncertain consequences and managing these uncertainties. Thus decision process and risk management are intimately interconnected, although their literatures are based in distinct communities. The purpose of this special issue of the EURO Journal of Decision Processes (EDJP) is to explore that relationship and draw together different disciplinary perspectives on risk management and decision. EJDP–which has been recently established by the Association of European Operational Research Societies (EURO)–publishes papers that contribute to the understanding and appropriate use of operational research in supporting different phases of decision making processes. More information on EJDP is at http://www.springer.com/40070 and at http://www.euro-online.org/web/pages/1497/euro-journal-on-decision-processes
Contents
The editors seek state of the art reviews and research that develop our understanding of risk management and decision processes. We invite submissions covering, for example:
- state-of-the-art reviews of methods and applications
- analysis of how risk and uncertainties are handled or managed in decision making
- theoretical underpinnings of risk and methodological advances in risk analysis for decision making
- modeling of uncertainties, risks, preferences, multiple criteria, constraints, and interdependencies for the purpose of improving the quality of decision making
- development and evaluation of software and tools for risk management and decision processes
- embedding of analytical approaches in organizational decision making and risk management processes
- reflective reports of innovative applications and high-impact case studies on the interface between risk and decision making.
Schedule
Prospective authors are invited to submit a full paper to the Manuscript Central editorial system (https://www.editorialmanager.com/ejdp, article type SI: Risk Management). Alternatively, they may send the Guest Editors a three-page extended abstract describing the proposed contribution (email [log in to unmask]) for feedback. The planned schedule is as follows:
- June 1st, 2012: Deadline for the submission of extended abstracts
- *** September 30th, 2012: Deadline for submission of full papers ***
- November 15th, 2013: Final decision notification
