We are pleased to announce the official launch of the PhD Student
Conference on Operational Research (SCOR 2014), now back for its
fourth instalment. We invite you to join us once again, at the
beautiful University of Nottingham campus the 2-4 May 2014.

PhD students from all European Universities studying Operational
Research, Management Science or a related field are kindly invited to
submit an abstract for presentation at the conference. As some
presenters may still be on an early stage of in their careers, the
work presented does not need to be fully developed or thoroughly
explored as of yet. The purpose of SCOR 2014 is to provide a friendly
environment for the next generation of Operational Researchers to
receive constructive feedback on their work and to meet people with
similar interests. The scope of the conference includes, but is not
limited to:

*Big Data & Analytics * Data Mining * Energy * Forecasting * Graphs /
Networks * Healthcare *
*Heuristics * Inventory * Mathematical Programming * Multicriteria
Decision Analysis * *Neural Networks / Machine Learning * Optimisation
and Applications * Reliability / Risk Assessment * Scheduling /
Timetabling * Stochastic Modelling * Supply Chain Management *
*Simulation / System Dynamics * Transport /Logistics*

*******Deadline for abstract (250 words) submission: Monday 10th
March 2014*********

A notification of acceptance will be sent shortly after this deadline.
In order to encourage a wide
range of students to attend, an affordable conference fee will cover
accommodation, a full social
program and full catering provided.

******************Deadline for PAPERS submission: Friday 11th April
2014******************


Presenters are also invited to submit a paper (no more than 10 pages)
on their work to be published electronically as part of the SCOR 2014
proceedings. This will be available in the Dagstuhl OpenAccess Series
in Informatics (OASIcs). Paper submissions will undergo a selection
process based on refereeing by the Committee. This gives doctoral
candidates a chance to experience the peer-review process and to
enhance their technical writing skills. Although it
is not mandatory, it is again, highly recommended. To get an idea on
the paper standards please visit the SCOR2012 proceedings.


See you in Nottingham!!!
