MOTBI 2013 - Special session on Modelling and Optimization Techniques for Business Intelligence MOTBI 2013

Optimization is an important intelligent computing area and an active research field.
Revitalization of earlier methods due to availability of high performance computing, inauguration of novel Optimization methodologies, as well as continuing demands for solving non-linear and complex problems, fierce competition, and cutting edge profit margins in manufacturing and business sectors are raisons d'être that make this subject area a strong and high demand topic for researchers.
The goal of this session is to provide an open place which should allow researchers and practitioners to discuss recent developments in models and optimization methods for decision making in Business Intelligence.
