ABOUT THE AWARD
The world needs more engineers, and that means engineers who represent the full spectrum of individuals within our global community.
Airbus and the Global Engineering Deans Council (GEDC) created the GEDC Airbus Diversity Award in 2013 to recognise people whose efforts are making engineering schools more diverse and inclusive. Our aim is to shine a light on good practise around the world and inspire others to take up this challenge.
The 3rd Advanced Summer School on Humanitarian Supply Chain Management and Logistics, to be held in Yogyakarta from 6th to 10th of July 2015, is the manifestation of the ever-closer relationship and cooperation between NOHA AISBL and Universitas Gadjah Mada. Already for a period of eight years NOHA AISBL has worked closely together with Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Republic of Indonesia. Thanks to the Directorate General Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection and the Directorate General Education and Culture (Erasmus Mundus), both European Commission, as well as the European NOHA Universities this cooperation blossoms.
The deepening relationship has resulted in dozens of staff and student exchanges, in thesis research being accompanied by UGM professors in situ and in collaboration towards joint doctorate research. By co-jointly organizing a high profile summer school NOHA and UGM set the next step to an activities-based relationship – as dictated by NOHA’s global strategy – aimed for increased academic humanitarian research and aimed at contemporary relevance for humanitarian practice. The University of Groningen have been mandated by the NOHA Board of Directors to organize this school together with UGM, its scholars from various faculties, the Programme on Humanitarian Action (POHA) and its International Office. The target audience constitutes a mix of students, academics, officials and practitioners; familiar as well as unfamiliar with the subject, both from Indonesia itself, the larger Asia region and from international organisations.

The 2015 11th International Conference on Natural Computation (ICNC’15) and the 2015 12th International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery (FSKD’15) will be jointly held from 15-17 August 2015 in Zhangjiajie, China. Zhangjiajie is a city in the northwestern part of Hunan province. Nearby is the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an AAAAA (the highest class) scenic area in China. Towering sandstones mesas, dense forests, and deep ravines form the gorgeous and mysterious natural landscape. With many spectacularly-shaped stone pillars, hidden valleys, seas of cloud, majestic waterfalls, wandering streams, clear lakes, and limestone caves, Wulingyuan is a must-see in China. Avatar, James Cameron’s block-buster movie, did much of its filming in these beautiful mountains.
As with the past ICNC-FSKD conferences, all papers in conference proceedings will be submitted to both EI Compendex and ISTP (ISI Proceedings), as well as IEEE Xplore (all previous ICNC-FSKD conferences from 2005 to 2013 have been indexed in Ei Compendex). Extended versions of selected best papers will appear in 3 SCI-index ICNC-FSKD special issues of Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, International Journal of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence and International Journal of Parallel Programming (60+ papers). ICNC-FSKD 2015 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society.
ICNC-FSKD is a premier international forum for scientists and researchers to present the state of the art of data mining and intelligent methods inspired from nature, particularly biological, linguistic, and physical systems, with applications to computers, circuits, systems, control, communications, and more. This is an exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of theory and methodologies are being investigated and developed to tackle complex and challenging problems. The registration fee includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all technical sessions.
Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts written in English. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field based on originality, significance, quality and clarity. Authors should use the Latex style files or MS-Word templates obtained from the conference site to format their papers. Authors should submit PDF files of their manuscripts via the online submission system. Submissions imply that the papers have not been submitted elsewhere and will not be submitted elsewhere for publications before the review decisions of this conference.
