The 2006 IAENG International Workshop on Financial Engineering

(Part of The International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer
Scientists IMECS 2006)

IMECS 2006: 20-22 June, 2006, Hong Kong
http://www.iaeng.org/IMECS2006/IWFE2006.html


The IWFE'06 workshop is held as part of the International
MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2006. The IMECS
2006 is organized by the International Association of Engineers
(IAENG), and serves as good platforms for the engineering community
members to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. Extended version
of the papers under this workshop can be included in the special issue
of our journal Engineering Letters. And, further extended version can
also be included in a book called "Current Trends in Financial
Engineering" to be published by IAENG.

The IMECS 2006 multiconference has the focus on the frontier topics in
the theoretical and applied engineering and computer science subjects.
It consists of 14 workshops (see the details at IMECS website:
www.iaeng.org/IMECS2006). The multiconference serves as good platforms
for the engineering community members of different disciplines to meet
with each other and to exchange ideas. The current conference committee
of the IMECS 2006 includes over 140 workshop co-chairs and committee
members of mainly research center heads, department heads, professors,
research scientists from over 20 countries, while a few of the
committee members are also experienced software development directors
and engineers.

All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers will
be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN: 988-98671-3-3). The
abstracts will be indexed and available at major academic databases.
The Technology Research Databases (TRD) of CSA (Cambridge Scientific
Abstracts), DBLP and Computer Science Bibliographies have promised to
index the print proceeding in advance of its publication. And after the
publication of the proceeding, print copies will also be sent to
databases like IEE INSPEC, Engineering Index (EI) and ISI Thomson
Scientific for indexing. The accepted papers will also be considered
for publication in the special issues of the journal Engineering
Letters. Some participants may also be invited to submit extended
version of their conference papers for considering as book chapters
(soon after the conference).

The topics of the workshop include, but not limited to, the following:

Investment banking
Corporate strategic planning
Risk management
Primary and derivative securities valuation
Swaps & derivatives trading or dealing
Financial information systems management
