CFP: IAENG International Conference on Operations Research ICOR 2012
Draft Manuscript submission deadline: 8 December, 2011
Camera-Ready papers & registration deadline: 10 January, 2012
IMECS 2012: Hong Kong, 14-16 March, 2012
http://www.iaeng.org/IMECS2012/ICOR2012.html

The IAENG International Conference on Operations Research (ICOR'12)
will take place in Hong Kong, 14-16 March, 2012.

The conference ICOR'12 is held under the International
MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2012. The IMECS
2012 is organized by the International Association of Engineers
(IAENG), a non-profit international association for the engineers and
the computer scientists. The conference has the focus on the frontier
topics in the theoretical and applied engineering and computer science
subjects. The IMECS conferences serve as good platforms for our
members and the entire engineering community to meet with each other
and to exchange ideas. Our IMECS committees have been formed with over
three hundred conference committees members who are mainly research
center heads, faculty deans, department heads, professors, and
research scientists from over 30 countries. The last IMECS 2011 has
attracted more than eight hundred participants from over 50
countries.

All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN:
978-988-19251-1-4). Revised and expanded version of the selected
papers may be included as book chapters in the standalone edited books
under the framework of cooperation between IAENG and publishers like
Springer. The abstracts will be indexed and available at major
academic databases. The accepted papers will also be considered for
publication in the special issues of the journal Engineering Letters,
in IAENG journals and in edited books. For reference, the recent IAENG
post conference edited books include titles like for example: Trends
in Intelligent Systems and Computer Engineering, Advances in
Communication Systems and Imaging Engineering, and Advances in
Industrial Engineering and Operations Research by Springer.

The topics of the ICOR'12 include, but not limited to, the following:

Management Science

Managerial economics

Systems thinking and analysis

Optimization

Integer programming

Linear programming

Nonlinear programming

Assignment problem

Transportation network design
Simulation

Statistical Analysis

Stochastics Modelling
