Computing in Economics and Finance '99
Call for Papers
Downloadable, suitable for printing and posting, in PDF format
The meetings will embrace quantitative and qualitative methods in economics,
finance, and decision making. Papers are solicited that deal significantly
with computational aspects of such topics as: linear and nonlinear systems,
econometrics, statistics, stochastic control, automatic differentiation,
nonlinear model solution methods, mathematical programming algorithms,
variational inequality and other algorithms for computing equilibria,
algorithmic models of decision making including genetic algorithms, auction
modeling, neural networks, artificial intelligence, computability and
complexity theory, parallel and supercomputing, qualitative reasoning and
models including qualitative simulation. Topics in computational finance are
exemplified by: complex options modeling, computational asset liability
issues, computational issues in modeling fixed income securities, risk
assesment simulation, data mining and pattern recognition, high frequency
data, information technologies, databases, intelligent user interfaces,
network pricing, decision support systems and management information.
