The forthcoming International Conference SMTDA2012 will take place in Chania Crete Greece (5-8 June 2012).
The Stochastic Modeling Techniques and Data Analysis International Conference (SMTDA) main objective is to welcome papers, both theoretical or practical, presenting new techniques and methodologies in the broad area of stochastic modeling and data analysis. An objective is to use the methods proposed for solving real life problems by analyzing the relevant data. Also, the use of recent advances in different fields will be promoted such as for example, new optimization and statistical methods, data warehouse, data mining and knowledge systems, computing-aided decision supports and neural computing.
Particular attention will be given to interesting applications in engineering, productions and services (maintenance, reliability, planning and control, quality control, finance, insurance, management and administration, inventory and logistics, marketing, environment, human resources, biotechnology, medicine, ...).
Special sessions and workshops are devoted to demography and related models and applications (see at http://www.smtda.net/demographics2012.html )
The publications of the conference include:
1. The Book of Abstracts in Electronic and in Paper form
2. Electronic Proceedings in CD and in the web in a permanent website
3. Publications in International Journals and in Book series
