Workshop on
Optimization in Health and Medicine
28 May 2009
Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
http://www.cs.ucc.ie/~osullb/cpaior2009-ws/
Pre-conference event of CP-AI-OR:
International Conference on Integration of
AI and OR Techniques in Constraint Programming for
Combinatorial Optimization Problems
27-31 May 2009 http://www.cpaior.org/
___________________________________________________________
__ Scope ________________________________________________
Medicine and healthcare is rich in computational
problems, among them many combinatorial ones. These
problems are often hard because of their large scale,
their inherent multiple objective nature, or because
modern medical technology entails specific, non-standard
problem structures. As a consequence, classical
techniques are often insufficient, and innovative
approaches in modelling and computation are required.
Further, solving these complex problems can have
far-rearching impact.
Papers are solicited from all areas concerned with the
application of modern combinatorial optimization
techniques in the healthcare domain. Areas of interest
include, but are not limited to:
- disease diagnosis,
- treatment design,
- healthcare provider operations,
- genomic analysis,
- biomedical informatics.
The workshop is aimed at both computationally oriented
researchers with new insights into previously studied
problems, as well as medical researchers who face new,
challenging problems from their medical practice. It
will offer a unique venue for knowledge exchange and
cultivate potential multidisciplinary collaboration in
this challenging field of bio-informatics.
The workshop proceedings will be published on-line at the
workshop website. Papers should not exceed 15 pages.
Submission information is given on the workshop website.
