The Service Systems Track is calling interested authors and presenters
to submit their papers and presentations for the 2013 Industrial and
Systems Engineering Research Conference (ISERC). The ISERC, which is
part of the IIE Annual Conference and Expo, is a forum for exchanging
knowledge and discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering
research community.

 

As track chairs of the Service Systems Track, we would like to encourage
you to contribute to the conference by submitting an abstract of your
proposed presentation.  Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to
present their work in the Service Systems sessions. Each session will be
75 minutes and have 3 or 4 presenters. Abstracts are welcome in the
following areas:

 

Financial Engineering

 

Entertainment and Recreation

 

Humanitarian/ Emergency / Disaster Relief Systems

Service Systems (Workforce issues, call centers, policy, variability,
modeling)

 

Modeling of Human Interaction and Behavior in Service Systems

 

Hospitality Systems

 

We encourage all presenters to submit a full length paper for the
conference proceedings. The papers should contain results that are
significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems
engineering research community; however, the papers are more limited in
scope and length than a full-length journal paper. Full papers have a
ten-page limit and will undergo a double-blind peer review process. All
accepted papers are indexed by ProQuest. Presentations without a paper
are acceptable, but will not be indexed in the conference proceedings.
While papers are not required in support of a presentation, we encourage
you to take advantage of this opportunity and will give considerable
preference to presentations with a supported paper. 

 

In addition, the Service Systems track will conduct a "Best Paper"
competition for 2013. All accepted papers for the 2013 Service Systems
Track will be considered for this prize.

 

The important deadlines for the conference are: 

 

Abstract submissions: November 7, 2012 
Notification: December 5, 2012 
Submission of full papers (optional but encouraged): January 11, 2013 
Notification of paper acceptance: February 22, 2013 
Final version of full paper due: March 8, 2013 
Presenting author registration deadline: March 15, 2013 

 

If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) you or a co-author must
register for the conference by March 15, 2013 (presentations/papers
without an author registered for the conference will be withdrawn from
the program and the proceedings); (b) you or a co-author must attend and
present the paper at the conference; and (c) we ask that you be ready to
serve as a reviewer for fellow authors and follow all review deadlines.

 

There are also opportunities to organize invited sessions, panels, or
tutorials.  In addition to research presentations, the annual conference
offers many opportunities for attendees, including the Applied Solutions
Conference program, plant tours, networking, and keynote speakers.

 

We look forward to seeing you in San Juan!

 

Sincerely,
