About Eureka - 2013

Eureka - 2013 is the Fourth International Workshop on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Management and Decision Support. It aims to build on the success of the 2011 meeting in Santander, Spain and bring together experts in the fields of Knowledge Discovery (KD), Knowledge Management (KM) and Decision Analysis (DA). Main goal will be to lay down new focus on the KD, KM and DA research application, to support solutions of real problems in society, business and government.

It is organized by the Eureka network (www.eurekaiberoamerica.com), the Mexican Society of Operations Research (SMIO) (www.smio.org.mx), and the Universidad de Occidente (U de O) (www.udo.mx). It joins network partners from 23 research groups settled in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Germany, Spain, Mexico, Portugal and Venezuela, as well as associated partners from further countries, under the lemma "Making transdisciplinary science and technology for business intelligence, towards sustainable development".

In the previous three editions Eureka has promoted and contributed to the development of transdisciplinary knowledge in the fields of Computational Intelligence, Operations Research, Management Sciences and Business Informatics, useful for KD, KM and Decision Support (DS) in collaboration with local and international scientific and academic organizations.

Invited key lecturers for Eureka - 2013 are: Janusz Kacprzyk (Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland), Hans Lenz (Free University of Berlin, Germany), and Luis Martínez López (University of Jaén, Spain), with participation of further leading figures from the scientific circles expected.

 

Scope of the Workshop

We call for full papers on novel aspects related to theory and methodology, presenting contributions to KD, KM and DS, as well as papers describing innovative applications in the same fields. Topics may include: fuzzy logic, rough sets, neural networks and metaheuristics for knowledge discovery, knowledge management and decision support; theory and models of multicriteria decision making and optimization for knowledge discovery, knowledge management and decision support; probabilistic, statistic and stochastic methods for knowledge discovery, knowledge management and decision support; ontology engineering; business intelligence; business informatics.
