*CLAIO 2008* invites submissions in all areas of Operations Research. The
conference is aimed at providing a platform where significant theoretical
contributions as well as insightful new applications will share the stage.
To achieve this goal, accepted submissions will be jointly classified in
"clusters" (based upon methodological and analytical techniques or
application domains) and "workshops" (emphasizing practitioners' insight and
experience). It is expected that this two-fold classification will enable a
more lively interaction between academics, practitioners from various
industries and recognized suppliers of OR-based technologies.

The preliminary list of clusters include: data mining and machine learning,
multi-criteria decision making, optimization theory (semi definite
programming, global optimization, stochastic programming, integer
programming), applications in the process industry, telecommunications,
transportation, energy markets, health systems; queuing systems, dynamic
games, financial engineering and risk management. The preliminary list of
workshops include:

§          2nd  ALIO/INFORMS Workshop on OR Education

§          1st ALIO/ALL Workshop on Operations Research, Logistics and
Supply Chain.

§          CLAIO 2008 Workshop on Finance and Financial Risk

§          CLAIO 2008 Workshop on Energy Markets Modeling

§          CLAIO 2008 Workshop on Regional Planning

§          CLAIO 2008 Workshop on Military Applications and Homeland
Security

§          CLAIO 2008 1st Workshop on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge
Management an Decision Making

§          Meeting on Game Theory, In Honor Of Guillermo Owen on The
Occasion of His 70th Birthday

Contributed sessions in subject areas not covered by any of the conference's
clusters and/or workshops are welcome (instructions on how to submit a
contributed session are available at the conference's webpage).

Submissions will be in the form of extended abstracts (max. 3 page length).
These should be formatted according to instructions (available at the
conference's webpage) and should be submitted electronically as a PDF file
at *www.easychair.org/CLAIO_2008*. The official languages of CLAIO 2008 are:
Spanish, Portuguese and English. Special issues dedicated to CLAIO 2008 will
be published by Annals of Operations Research and the Journal of Intelligent
Manufacturing.

Deadlines:

§          Submission of new clusters is March 15, 2008

§          Submission of the extended abstracts is April 30, 2008

§          Final decisions will be notified by May 31, 2008

§          Final program will be published June 20, 2008.
