About |
The International Conference on Decision Economics (DECON 2020) is a multidisciplinary international forum dedicated to advancing knowledge and improving instruction in economics, business, computer science, psychology, quantitative methods and related disciplines. To pursue this mission, DECON 2020 will facilitate the development and dissemination of knowledge in the diverse disciplines of the decision sciences in the tradition of Herbert A. Simon’s interdisciplinary heritage. Herbert A. Simon was - and still is - one of the most influential founding father of the multidisciplinary fields of decision sciences: his contributions range across microeconomics, administrative behaviour and organisation theory, management science and operation research, behavioural decision theory, cognitive psychology, and artificial intelligence. Therefore, DECON 2020 focuses on theoretical, empirical and methodological investigations of socio-economic decisions made by several economic agents in a complex market economy, not entirely according to standard “rational” economic principles, but also in light of behavioural and cognitive factors, and bounded rationality. Such investigations can be methodologically focused on quantitative approaches, qualitative methods, or can take the form of insightful reviews and commentaries on best practices in social science research. DECON 2020 dedicates itself to the interdisciplinary study of decision-making in the recognition that important decision-making takes place in a range of critical subject areas and research fields, including Economics, Finance, Information Systems, Psychology, Small and International Business, Management, Operations, and Production. We are particularly interested in analytics as an emerging synthesis of sophisticated methodology and large data systems used to guide economic decision-making in an increasingly complex business environment. |
Call for Papers |
SCOPEInspired by the research work of Alan M. Turing, the 2nd International Conference on Decision Economics (DECON 2020) is devoted to the 70th anniversary of the Turing’s Test (1950) and the intellectual setting for what could be called “Turing’s economics”. To this purpose, DECON 2020 provides a multidisciplinary forum in order to advancing knowledge and thereby improving standards in social sciences, cognitive sciences, quantitative methods, and related areas. To pursue this mission, DECON 2020 encourages the development and dissemination of the mathematical foundations of economic theorizing underpinned by the work of Alan Turing. Primary emphasis is placed on original research exploring topics in computation and computability in economics; logic and algorithmic social sciences research; experimetrics research in economics; epistemology of computation, experimentation, and dynamics in economics; cognitive economics; computational complexity theory; evolutionary and behavioural game theory; decision sciences and the economics of uncertainty; microfoundations and micro‐ macro relationships; boundedly rational choice and satisficing decisions; decision support systems and business decisions. DECON 2020 is structured into three Sessions: (i) the main track is devised to consider contributions related to the Turing’s Test and implications for economics; (ii) a special session is entitled "Decision Cognitive Sciences" (DECOGN) and is dedicated to decision-making and Cognitive Sciences; (iii) another special session is entitled "Edgeconomics" (EDGECON) and is focused on the edge of economics. TOPICSThe recent negative economic and financial events, which have hit the world economies in the last decade, call for new and innovative studies mainly in economics, business and finance, involving different research fields such as Economics, Psychology, or strictly related social sciences, leading source for original research on the interplay of those fields within Artificial Intelligence. The organisers and chairs of DECON strongly believe that this is a moral duty, as well as a scientific duty, for a prudent and wise economist aware of the complexity of the real world in which he/she lives and works in the Third Millennium. Indeed, the combination of economics and decision sciences is a field of studies which proves to be useful and, thus, should be fostered to academicians and practitioners interested in the application of quantitative and behavioural methods to the problems of society. The special session focuses on interdisciplinary approaches to the study of economic analysis and policies within several major areas. Hence, papers are invited for the following areas of special interest which include but are not limited to:
DOCTORAL CONSORTIUMThe aim of the Doctoral Consortium is to provide a frame where students can present their on going research work and meet other students and researchers, and obtain feedback on future research directions. The Doctoral Consortium is intended for students who have a specific research proposal and some preliminary results, but who are still far from completing their dissertation. All proposals submitted to the Doctoral Consortium will undergo a thorough reviewing process with the aim to provide detailed and constructive feedback. The accepted submissions will be presented at the Doctoral Consortium and published in the conference proceedings. |
