[Apologies for multiple postings] FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS - XVI EGC XVI Spanish Meeting on Computational Geometry (Encuentros de Geometría Computacional, EGC) July 1-3, 2015 Barcelona, Spain http://www-ma2.upc.es/egc15 The XVI Spanish Meeting on Computational Geometry will be held on July 1-3, 2015, at the Faculty of Mathematics and Statistics, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain. The main focus of this international conference is on current topics in Discrete and Computational Geometry, including both theoretical and applied results. EGC started in 1990, making this edition, 25 years later, a special occasion. The intended audience for this conference includes graduate and undergraduate students, researchers in the area or from neighboring disciplines, and members of industry whose work involves geometric algorithms. Topics include, but are not limited to: * geometric algorithms and data structures; * discrete and combinatorial geometry; * theoretical foundations of computational geometry; * questions of interest in the implementation of geometric algorithms and geometric software development; * applications of computational geometry, and closely related areas, such as computer graphics, virtual reality, robotics, computer vision, simulation and visualization, solid modelling, computer aided design and manufacturing, pattern recognition, graph drawing and circuit layout, image processing, geographic information systems, multimedia and animation, wireless communications, computer algebra, computational topology, statistical analysis, operations research, computational biology, etc. The language of the conference is English, yet occasional submissions/presentations in Spanish may be exceptionally considered. IMPORTANT DATES All deadlines are 23:59 CEST and fixed. There will be no extensions. Paper submission deadline: April 16, 2015 Notification of paper acceptance: May 14 Grant application deadline: May 21 Final versions due: May 31 Early registration deadline: June 4 Conference: July 1-3, 2015 INVITED SPEAKERS Jin Akiyama, Tokyo University of Science. Francisco Santos, Universidad de Cantabria. Bettina Speckmann, Technische Universiteit Eindhoven. Jorge Urrutia, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. SUBMISSIONS We invite authors to submit extended abstracts that should not exceed 4 pages of original research. In order to guarantee that submissions are in scope and not below basic standards, there will be a limited review process. An appendix can be added as a help for the reviewers and is required when necessary to verify omitted proofs of critical claims. Submission details will be available on the conference website. We remark that XVI ECG will have neither formally reviewed proceedings nor printed abstracts. The abstracts, without ISBN, will be made available on the conference website (appendices excluded), and must be regarded as a collection of preprints rather than a formally reviewed selection of papers. Papers that have just been submitted to journals or to formally reviewed conferences are eligible for being presented at XVI ECG, assuming that it is allowed by those venues and they have not appeared by the time of the conference. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their papers at the conference. Failure to do so will result in removal of the contribution everywhere in the website.

SEPS Special Issue on public sector location

Call for Papers Special Issue of Socio-Economic Planning Sciences Location Analysis for Public Sector Decision-Making in Uncertain Times Guest Editors:Giuseppe Bruno, University of Naples "Federico II",Italy Andrea Genovese, University of Sheffield, UK Socio-Economic Planning Sciences will publish a special issue on recent development in Location Analysis for Public Sector Decision-Making. The goal is to compile state-of-the art research, spanning modeling, theory, empirical studies, application and case studies in this research area. We seek operations research oriented contributions that are rigorously executed, clearly and succinctly written, and innovative relative to what is currently known. In light of the scope of SEPS, all papers must clearly demonstrate the relevance of their contributions with respect to the public sector. A facility location problem is aimed at finding the best position for a set of facilities within a given region in order to optimize a specific objective function. In the last decades, there have been many applications concerning the location of public-sector facilities (i.e. schools or post offices, emergency services, fire stations, hospitals, ambulances). These models represent a viable decision support tool for institutions that are planning to expand their capacity in a given region and/or market. This very well established research strand, however, has to take into account the changing and uncertain nature of our times. Indeed, in recent years, due to the global recession and the general interest to reduce costs and improve efficiency, public sector bodies have been more interested in the rationalization of the current position of active facilities (either closing down some of them or re-organizing the overall service supply system). In this context, decisions may depend on various factors such as the nature of the service and the characteristics of the demand. Considering this context, the special issue will be welcoming papers related to applications and theory of Location Analysis, with a special emphasis on contributions addressing contemporary challenges. All manuscripts should be submitted electronically via the Elsevier Editorial System (EES) <http://ees.elsevier.com/seps> http://ees.elsevier.com/seps. You must select Location Analysis as the Article Type to make sure that your paper will be considered for the special issue. The submission deadline is 30 November 2014. The plan is to publish the special issue in early 2016. Researchers from all relevant disciplines are invited to consider this special issue as an outlet to publish their quality work on this topic of increasing significance. Inquiries on the special issue can be directed to the guest editors ( <mailto:Giuseppe.bruno@unina.it> giuseppe.bruno(a)unina.it, <mailto:a.genovese@sheffield.ac.uk> a.genovese(a)sheffield.ac.uk).
