07 Aug '17

Dear Locators, Another ISOLDE conference has gone by. We had an excellent conference both scientifically and socially. I updated the http://isoldeconference.org/ website to include photos and information from this latest meeting. Moreover, I recently posted an updated version of the Attendance Merit<http://isoldeconference.bilkent.edu.tr/?p=419>. This list is not exhausted and I need your input. Please get in touch with me if you have attended 9 or more ISOLDE meetings. I’ll keep this list updated. Thanks to Zvi Drezner, I recently got hold of albums from ISOLDE II, III, and IV. I scanned and uploaded these photos on Isolde Conference Facebook page<https://www.facebook.com/IsoldeConference/>. There are individual links from the website to each of these ISOLDE albums. You do not need to be a Facebook member to be able to see these photos. Last but not least, the next ISOLDE will take place in Göttingen and at the Baltic Sea, Germany in June 2020 to be organized by Anita Schöbel. Hope to see you all there in 3 years! Best regards, Sibel Sibel Alumur Alev, PhD Assistant Professor Department of Management Sciences University of Waterloo Waterloo, Ontario, N2L 3G1 CANADA tel: +1-519-888-4567, ext. 33365 e-mail: sibel.alumur(a)uwaterloo.ca<mailto:sibel.alumur@uwaterloo.ca> url: http://www.mansci.uwaterloo.ca/~salumura/

Dear EWGLA Members FYI :) Bahar Call for Papers: Contribu2ons to Humanitarian Logis.cs Special Issue of IISE Transactions Focus Issue on Scheduling and Logistics Purpose Disasters around world claimed hundreds of thousands of lives and led to US$1.5 trillion lost between 2005 and 2015, according to The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction. On the other hand, as much as 80 percent of disaster relief expenditures go toward logistics. Therefore, humanitarian logistics is a key element of a disaster relief process. The purpose of this special issue is to publish rigorous research around emerging themes in the area of Humanitarian logistics, such as the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient, cost-effective flow and storage of goods, and materials, as well as related information, from point of origin to the point of consumption for the purpose of alleviating the suffering of vulnerable people. We would welcome contribuAons across a wide range of issues. Topics for this SI may include but are not limited to: ● Humanitarian logistics and supply chain management ● The use of technology enable real-time monitoring ● Humanitarian operations evaluation ● Coordination within organizations and collaboration among organizations ● Predictive analytics for demand planning ● Inventory planning and control ● Transportation networks design and vehicle routing ● Medical supply delivery Important dates • Manuscript submission deadline: September 1, 2017 • NoAficaAon of disposiAon of the manuscript: December 31, 2017 • Final revisions due: March 1, 2018 Submission Process Authors should submit their paper through Scholar One's Manuscript Central online manuscript submission system at hWp://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iietransacAons <hwp://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iietransacAons>.

Topics of interests include but are not limited to: Mathematical modeling and optimization of cloud-related problems (e.g., resource allocation, scheduling, redundancy allocation, (big) data management) Application of metaheuristics in cloud computing and fog computing environments Metaheuristics for energy management, (big) data management, security, and reliability Metaheuristics for cloud brokerage Application of metaheuristics to support decision making in different domains (e.g., logistics, smart cities, etc.) Distributed and parallel metaheuristics Design and development of cloud-based decision support systems For more information, please visit http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1097-024X/homepage/spe… <http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1097-024X/homepage/spe…> and select Special Issue on: Metaheuristics in Cloud Computing <http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/store/10.1002/(ISSN)1097-024X/asset/homepage…> * IMPORTANT DATES: Submission: September 15, 2017 Notification: November 15, 2017 Revision due: January 15, 2018 Notification of final acceptance: February 15, 2018 Notification of final revised paper: March 15, 2018 * SPECIAL ISSUE PAPER SUBMISSION: This special issue seeks submission of papers that present novel and innovative ideas. It also welcomes submissions of extended versions of the best selected papers presented in the related special track of the International Conference on Metaheuristics (MIC). All submissions including invited papers go under regular peer review process. We seek submission of papers that present new, original and innovative ideas for the "first" time in SPE. Submission of "extended versions" of already published works (e.g., conference papers) is not encouraged unless they contain a significant number of "new and original" ideas/contributions along with more than 50% brand "new" material. If you are submitting an extended version, you must submit a cover letter/document detailing (1) the "Summary of Differences" between the SPE paper and the earlier paper, (2) a clear list of "new and original" ideas/contributions in the SPE paper (identifying sections where they are proposed/presented), and (3) confirming the percentage of new material. Otherwise, the submission will be "desk" rejected without being reviewed. If you have a paper on cloud computing which does not match the requirements of the Special Issue, we encourage you to submit it as a regular paper to Software: Practice and Experience. The journal has expanded its coverage to specifically include cloud computing. While submitting paper to this issue, please select Special Issue - Metaheuristics in Cloud Computing in the submission system (https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/spe <https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/spe>). * GUEST EDITORS: Leonard Heilig (contact for submission queries) Institute of Information Systems, University of Hamburg, Germany Email: leonard.heilig(a)uni-hamburg.de <mailto:leonard.heilig@uni-hamburg.de> Eduardo Lalla-Ruiz Institute of Information Systems, University of Hamburg, Germany Stefan Voß Institute of Information Systems, University of Hamburg, Germany Rajkumar Buyya Cloud Computing and Distributed Systems (CLOUDS) Laboratory, University of Melbourne, Australia
