活动简介

We cordially invite submissions to GDN 2017, the 17^th International Conference on Group Decision and Negotiation, which will take place at the University of Hohenheim, Stuttgart, Germany, 14^th -18^th August 2017.

The conference is the prime forum for researchers and practitioners in the fields of group decision and negotiation. It offers a truly international setting with participants from Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania.

A Doctoral Consortium will precede the conference, on 14^th August 2017. It will provide PhD students with a unique opportunity to present and discuss their work in small groups with leading researchers in the field.

GDN 2017 is the 17^th annual meeting organised by the INFORMS section on Group Decision and Negotiation. Conference topics will be organised in several streams and include all aspects of group decision and negotiation such as

Technological Foundations
Systems Design and Use
Methodological Foundations
Theoretical Foundations
Behavioural Aspects
Applications

There will be a dedicated student track offering pre-doctoral students an opportunity to present (preliminary) work and to receive valuable feedback.

Conference proceedings will be published in a volume of Springer Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP), as well as a local proceedings volume for authors who choose to retain copyrights to their papers. Selected papers will be considered for publication in the Springer journal Group Decision and Negotiation.

Papers can be submitted as full papers to be published by Springer or as short papers/extended abstract to be published by Hohenheim University. The topics are organised in conference streams that can be found on the website. Research in Group Decision and Negotiation has continued to expand, and many new research directions have been proposed. At GDN conferences, we encourage researchers to present research in Group Decision and Negotiation even if (in fact, especially if) it does not fit into any of the above areas. We particularly invite Bachelor and Master students to submit their work to the dedicated Student Stream.
