These advances have been made possible through the joint contribution of very different scientific fields. Healthcare is nowadays better understood as a multidisciplinary field, with increasing number of challenges that can be better tackled by joint collaboration of researchers with different scientific backgrounds. The challenges that Healthcare is facing have not only to do with the ability of providing better services to all (treatments, preventive medicine, better diagnosis tools), with an increased focus on improved personalized treatment options, but also with the need to tackle an increased pressure felt by Healthcare systems: increased number of patients, some of them requiring expensive treatments, with a consequent increase in the workload for health institutions that most of the times have to deal with important budget restrictions. The Conference will provide a forum in which researchers coming from different scientific disciplines can discuss and share their experience regarding methodological approaches to tackle different Healthcare challenges. Contributions from operational research, industrial engineering, medicine, medical physics, management, computational biology, bioinformatics, health economics among others are welcomed. _ Streams_ If you are interested in organizing a stream please let us know (info(a)minieuro2015.com). Confirmed streams: ·Health Informatics ·Radiotherapy Optimization ·Biomedicine ·Health Logistics and Scheduling ·Health Economics _ Confirmed Plenary Speakers_ Sally Brailsford, University of Southampton David Craft, Harvard Medical School Massachusetts General Hospital Ben Heijmen, Erasmus MC Cancer Institute and Erasmus University Rotterdam Alexandre Quintanilha, Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas Abel Salazar _ _ _ Submissions:_ Authors are invited to submit an abstract with not more than 350 words or a full paper (4 to 10 pages) to be published in the conference proceedings (Journal of Physics: Conference Series (JPCS)).

Call for Papers - Socio Economic Planning Sciences
by Andrea Genovese 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Dear all, could you help us in sending this information to EWGLA members? Regards A. 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 … [View More]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. 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 (giuseppe.bruno(a)unina.it <Giuseppe.bruno(a)unina.it>, a.genovese(a)sheffield.ac.uk). -- *Dr Andrea Genovese (MSc, MBA, PhD)* Lecturer in Logistics and Supply Chain Management Programme Director - MSc in Logistics and Supply Chain Management Logistics and Supply Chain Management Research Centre Management School, The University of Sheffield Room B.063, Conduit Road Sheffield S10 1FL, UK.

Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies Special Issue: Advances in alternative fuel vehicle transportation systems Guest Editors: Yongxi (Eric) Huang, Clemson University, USA, yxhuang(a)clemson.edu<mailto:yxhuang@clemson.edu> Michael Kuby, Arizona State University, USA, mikekuby(a)asu.edu<mailto:mikekuby@asu.edu> Joseph Y.J. Chow, Ryerson University, Canada, joseph.chow(a)ryerson.ca<mailto:joseph.chow@ryerson.ca> Introduction The increasing pace of worldwide … [View More]modernization and urbanization now requires the creation of more sustainable approaches to mitigate the effects of climate change and to manage large urban population centers. The transportation sector is facing a grand challenge regarding the evolution of new renewable energy sources to reduce the dependence on oil with a concurrent environmental stewardship. Recent technological advances in alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) (e.g., electric, natural gas, biofuel, and hydrogen) lend evidence to that continuing evolution. However, before AFVs can be widely adopted in the marketplace, several deficiencies in these systems must first be resolved. For example, more alternative fueling stations (AFSs) must be built to alleviate range anxiety. New routing and scheduling strategies must be designed for service fleets and public transit systems that employ AFV technologies. Complex (often dynamic and nonlinear) interactions between users, technologies, and the underlying economy need to be better understood. Technologies and systems solutions are thereby needed in order to better understand the interactions between infrastructure, vehicles, and the users. Scope of the Special Issue This special issue will be focused on new problem formulations, models, and more effective exact or approximate solution approaches. Potential topics could come from different aspects that include but are not limited to the following: * AFS near-and-long term planning on network * Alternative fuel transit system planning and operations * Smart AFV routing strategies * Interactions between users, technologies, and economy * Integrated models to evaluate broad impacts of AFV technologies, e.g., transportation-energy-land use interactions * Interaction of public and private sectors in driving the technologies to marketplace * New business/operational models enabled by AFVs, e.g., vehicle-to-grid operations Submission Method All submissions will go through the journal's standard peer-review process. For guidelines to prepare your manuscript and for manuscript submission, please visit http://ees.elsevier.com/trc. When submitting your manuscript, please choose "SI: AFV transport systems" for "Article Type". This is to ensure that your submission will be considered for this special issue instead of being handled as a regular paper. All submissions will be subject to the journal's standard peer review process. Criteria for acceptance include originality, contribution, and scientific merit. Important Dates Submission website opens: January 5, 2015 Submission deadline of full paper online: April 5, 2015 Feedback from first-round reviews: July 15, 2015 Feedback from second-round reviews (if indicated): October 15, 2015 Final manuscripts due: December 15, 2015 Planned publication: 2016 Inquires All inquiries regarding this call for papers should be directed to Guest Editors, Drs. Yongxi (Eric) Huang (yxhuang(a)clemson.edu<mailto:yxhuang@clemson.edu>), Michael Kuby (mikekuby(a)asu.edu<mailto:mikekuby@asu.edu>), and Joseph Chow (joseph.chow(a)ryerson.ca<mailto:joseph.chow@ryerson.ca>) or to the Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Yafeng Yin (yafeng(a)ce.ufl.edu<mailto:yafeng@ce.ufl.edu>).
