IJAHP News: Ferretti/ISAHP 2016 International Journal of the Analytic Hierarchy Process 201 Vol. 8 Issue 1 2016 ISSN 1936-6744 http://dx.doi.org/10.13033/ijahp.v8i1.383 We are looking forward to seeing you at the ISAHP 2016 Symposium which will take place August 4 - 7, 2016, in London, UK ! The International Symposium on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (ISAHP) for Decision Making brings together researchers, academics, students and other users of AHP/ANP to share their research and experiences in decision-making. The ISAHP is a biennial conference on multi-criteria decision analysis, with a particular focus on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and its extension, the Analytic Network Process (ANP), (both developed by Thomas L. Saaty) and the combination/comparison of these with other methods. Our last ISAHP meeting was held in Washington, D.C. in 2014. Paper proposals presented at ISAHP cover the major studies of international research in AHP/ANP, and provide solutions for current challenges in important areas of decision-making. Of particular interest are the topics listed for the conference as well as scholarship developed by students who constitute the new generation of AHP/ANP scholars and practitioners. Publication Opportunities The following journals will publish a selection of papers from the ISAHP 2016 conference. Selected authors will be invited to submit extended versions of their paper by the person responsible for each special issue, and their papers will be fast-tracked for review.

They will have the opportunity to exchange ideas and get feedback from the top authors in the AHP/ANP field and even have one-on-one time with them in our newly introduced “Mentoring Sessions”. For these sessions you can book time and discuss specific topics with highly acclaimed experts who are members of our community (for more info click here). Unattended poster presentations Taking into consideration the difficulties of getting funding for conferences, ISAHP 2016 has also introduced the unattended poster sessions. This is for scholars who want to submit and send their work, even if it is still in progress, but cannot be present during the conference (student-fee registration will be required). Social Networking Event ISAHP 2016 offers a variety of events for attendees, such as community meetings and receptions, mentoring sessions and a very nice social networking event that will take place on Saturday, August 6, at the Dickens Inn. Dickens Inn, traditional English pub The Dickens Inn is an original warehouse building near Tower Bridge, Tower of London and the Shard. As an original warehouse building, it's thought to have housed tea or to have been owned by a local brewery. It certainly existed at the turn of the 18th century and may well have been created in the 1700's. This Inn was opened by Cedric Charles Dickens, grandson of the famous author Charles Dickens. We look forward to see you again, at ISAHP 2016, August 4 – 7, in London, UK! http://www.isahp.org/ http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/ IJAHP News: Ferretti/ISAHP 2016 International Journal of the Analytic Hierarchy Process 203 Vol. 8 Issue 1 2016 ISSN 1936-6744 http://dx.doi.org/10.13033/ijahp.v8i1.383 ISAHP 2014, Washington DC, USA
