*** Soft Computing represents a collection or set of computational techniques in machine learning, computer science and some engineering disciplines, which investigate, simulate and analyze very complex issues and phenomena.

The 10th International Conference on Soft Computing Models in Industrial and Environmental Applications (SOCO'15) is mainly focused on its industrial applications.

SOCO Series of Conferences provides an interesting opportunity to present and discuss the latest theoretical advances and real-world applications in this multidisciplinary research field.

SOCO'15 will be held in conjunction with:

CISIS'15: http://cisis.usal.es

ICEUTE'15: http://iceute.usal.es
