ECSO - CMS 2020 is jointly organized by the Department of Economics
of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, the CMS Journal and the EURO
Working Group on Stochastic Optimization.
ECSO 2020 is the 3rd edition of a stream of conferences organized by
the EURO Working Group on Stochastic Optimization (EWGSO). The
previous editions were held in Paris (2014) and Rome (2017). The
scope of the conference is to bring together researchers and
professionals in Stochastic Optimization and its applications in
different fields spacing from economics and finance to supply chain,
logistics, etc.
CMS 2020 is the 17th edition of an annual meeting associated with
the journal of Computational Management Science published by
Springer. The aim of the conference is to provide a forum for
theoreticians and practitioners from academia and industry to
exchange knowledge, ideas and results in a broad range of topics
relevant to the theory and practice of computational methods in
management science.
This joint event will provide a forum for fruitful discussions and
interactions among researchers and professionals from industry and
institutional sectors on decision making under uncertainty in a
complex world. The conference will be within the scopes of both CMS
and EWGSO and, in particular, it will focus on models, methods and
computational tools in stochastic, robust and distributionally
robust optimization and on computational aspects of management
science with emphasis on risk management, valuation problems,
measurement applications. Traditional fields of application, such as
finance, energy, water management, logistics, supply chain
management, and emerging ones, such as healthcare, climate risk and
sustainable development, will be included.
A Best Student Paper Prize of 600 euro will be awarded. Papers
should be nominated via e-mail by the students’ supervisors (ecsocms2020@unive.it).
Deadline for the submissions to the prize is May 15. The program
will include a devoted session for presenting the best papers to
compete for the prize, such that the jury could make the final
choice. The paper does not have to be published. The papers should
be principally authored by the student, but co-authors are permitted
as long as their contributions are clarified. Only registered
participants’ papers will be considered for the prize.
Jury for the Student Best Paper Prize:
Stein-Erik Fleten (NTNU Norwegian University of Science and
Technology), Milos Kopa (Charles University of Prague), Francesca
Maggioni (University of Bergamo), Ruediger Schultz (University
Duisburg-Essen).
