Subject: Special Announcement from the EC-Digest Moderators
Dear members of the EC Community,
Thank you for participating in the EC-Digest mailing list. We know that
occasionally, one of your messages may not get published in the expected issue.
If this occurs, please know that you are welcome to contact us for an
explanation. However, please note that when compiling the EC-Digest each
month, messages received after the 3rd day of that month will be held until the
next issue. In an effort to respect your inbox size, we will we send out
amendment issues (such as this one) only in rare cases where the content is of
a time critical nature.
As one last additional note, please be aware that we are currently considering
format changes of the Digest itself. This may include the removal of the 80
character column width. We are also attempting to combine multiple messages
that specify the same content, such as specific track announcements within a
conference announcement that also lists the tracks. It is our hope that such
actions will make the Digest easier to read, without removing any of the
information that you have come to expect.
Happy New Year,
The EC-Digest Moderators

Subject: EMO session at MCDM'2011 and Associated Special Issue in J. of MCDA
Special Session on
Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization
during the
21st Intl. Conference on Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM 2011)
June 13--17, 2011 in Jyväskylä, Finland
http://emoatmcdm.gforge.inria.fr/
associated with a
Special Issue
"Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization: Methodologies and Applications"
of the Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (Wiley)
Submission deadline: January 31, 2011 (full papers and abstracts)
Organizers: Dimo Brockhoff and Kalyanmoy Deb
Research on evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) deals---opposed
to many multicriteria decision making (MCDM) approaches---with stochastic
algorithms that are able to find multiple (near) Pareto-optimal solutions
in a single algorithm run. The goal of the EMO session as well as of the
associated special issue is to present to the general MCDM audience salient
current research and application studies using evolutionary multiobjective
optimization methodologies. Moreover, the special session is going to be a
nice opportunity to bring together researchers from the two main research
fields in multiobjective optimization and decision making in order to foster
collaborations and bringing the fields of EMO and MCDM closer together.
We are welcoming high quality papers in all theoretical, developmental,
implementational, and applied aspects of EMO and decision making though
papers focusing on combining EMO and MCDM methodologies are highly
encouraged. All papers will be reviewed by at least three different
reviewers according to the standards of Wiley. Authors of accepted papers
will be then invited to present their work within the EMO session at the
MCDM'2011 conference. Authors that would like to give a talk within the
session without submitting a full paper are asked to submit an abstract
(350 words max.) via the usual abstract submission system of MCDM'2011.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
* EMO for dynamic optimization
* handling a large number of objectives
* hybrid EMO methodologies
* innovative applications
* interactive EMO
* multiobjectivization studies
* performance metrics
* preference articulation in EMO
* set-based MCDM approaches
* theoretical foundations of EMO
* uncertainty handling
Please note that, whereas the acceptance of a full paper allows to travel
to Jyväskylä with the certainty of a peer-reviewed journal publication, an
accepted abstract allows to give a talk only and does not guarantee a
publication as no conference proceedings will be published. Note also that,
though you can submit several contributions to the MCDM'2011 conference,
all talks must be given by distinct authors. More details on the submission
procedures can be found on the web page http://emoatmcdm.gforge.inria.fr/.
