CALL FOR PAPERS

The ASA (Association for Applied Statistics) and the G. D?Annunzio
University of Chieti and Pescara in partnership with:
- AICQ-CN, The Italian Association for Quality Culture (north and
centre of Italy)
- AISS, The Italian Academy for Six Sigma
- ASSIRM, The Italian Association for Marketing, Social and Opinion Research
- SIS, The Italian Society of Statistics

organise in Pescara a scientific conference aimed at promoting
applications and new statistical techniques and models suitable for
food, social and health, economic and environmental risk analyses.

The conference will last two days. Scientific reports at the
conference will be partly invited by the Scientific Committee and
partly contributed by participants. Also a round-table and
participated experiments for both the sensorial evaluation of food and
wines and the convergence of opinions will be held.
At each invited session two basic speeches will open the discussion,
one of which will be held by an academic and the other by an expert
from a company or an institution currently using statistics. This
juxtaposition is aimed at favouring a better understanding between the
academia and the production world.

This message is devoted to solicit contributed papers.
Contributed papers are welcome. Concerned scholars are invited to
submit to the Scientific Committee an abstract preferably in English
of no more than 4,000 characters, title, authors? name, company or
institution they belong to, and email included. The Committee, after
acceptation, will contact the authors.

Official languages at the conference will be Italian and English. A
good practice would be to write the PowerPoint transparencies in
English so that non-Italian participants can follow all presentations.
