The NSAIS16 workshop is organized to act as a platform for the research
community interested in Adaptive and Intelligent systems – the theme
this year is Operational Research, applications of Fuzzy logic, and TRIZ.
The NSAIS16 workshop takes place at Lappeenranta University of
Technology, situated in South‐Eastern Finland and located on the lake
Saimaa. The working language of the workshop is English.
Workshop Theme:
“OR+Fuzzy+TRIZ” encompasses these three areas of interest. Both,
theoretical and application‐oriented papers are welcome within the scope
of the workshop theme. The workshop is doctoral student friendly in that
