The Association for Modeling and Simulation in Enterprises (AMSE) is pleased to announce the “International Conference on Modeling and Simulation in Engineering, Economics and Management (MS'2016)”, which will be held in Santiago de Chile (Chile), January 20 – 22th, 2016. This Congress is jointly organized with the School of Economics and Business of the University of Chile, through the Department of Management Control and Information Systems. 

Scientific research in modeling and simulation needs new techniques and models in order to deal with new complex problems and environments. The use of Computational Intelligence and related techniques are needed to face with systems where classical methods are not enough. Dealing with imprecision, vagueness and uncertainty is a part of reality which cannot be avoided. 

The AMSE association, through this International Conference, wants to offer a forum where university people, professionals and practitioners, working in the field of modeling and simulation, can exchange ideas and experience on the advancement of research, methods, techniques, applications and projects based on Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Soft Computing, Intelligent Systems, Business Intelligence, New Quantitative Methods and Related Applications. 

The International Conference aim is to stimulate scientific exchanges, promote international co-operation between the academic community and companies, and disseminate results of theoretical and applied research. 

Authors are invited to submit papers up to 15 pages by November 15, 2015. Those wishing to publish their paper in the Springer “Lecture Notes on Business Information Processing” Series, should send the paper by October 15th, 2015. The rest of the accepted papers (oral and poster presentations) will be published in accompanying CD-ROM proceedings. The proceedings will be submitted for indexing in major databases including the Web of Science – Conference Proceedings Citation Index. The title of the book will be “Modeling and Simulation in Engineering, Economics and Management”. Furthermore, authors of the best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of the paper for a special issue in an international journal.
