In addition to finance and economics, we also include management sciences by noticing that tremendous applications have been employed in marketing, accounting, management of information systems, human resources, and organization and leadership. Anything not mentioned above, but related to computational finance, economics or management science in a general sense, is also welcome.
On the instrumental side, we are also open to the various application tools. In addition to fuzzy logic, neural networks and evolutionary computation, other related and novel techniques which can contribute to computational finance, economics and management sciences are also welcome.
