List of Participants       

The CMS conference is an annual meeting associated with the journal of Computational Management Science published by Springer. The aim of this conference is to provide a forum for theoreticians and practitioners from academia and industry to exchange knowledge, ideas and results in a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of computational methods, models and empirical analysis for decision making in economics, finance, management, and engineering.


The conference focus is on all computational aspects of management science: theoretical and empirical studies of computational methods, models and empirical analysis for decision making in economics, finance, management, and related aspects of engineering. These include computational statistics; design, analysis and applications of constrained and unconstrained optimisation algorithms, combinatorial optimisation; stochastic models and solution algorithms; dynamic models, dynamic programming and decision trees; global optimisation modelling, learning and forecasting such as neural networks and genetic algorithms; models and tools of knowledge acquisition, such as data mining and data warehousing; and all other topics in management science with the emphasis on computational paradigms.


A special issue of the journal of Computational Management Science will be devoted to peer reviewed papers from the Conference. The Guest Editors are: Panos Parpas and Wolfram Wiesemann. Papers should be submitted via CMS Editorial Manager while informing by email the editor-in-chief and the Guest Editors.
