Call for Papers: 41th Annual Simulation Symposium
(Part of the 2008 Spring Simulation Multiconference)
Ottawa, Canada
April 13-16, 2008
Sponsored by: The Society for Modeling and Simulation International
(The Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society)
The Annual Simulation Symposium is a forum for the exchange of ideas,
techniques, and applications among
practitioners of simulation in industry, government, and academia. This
international Symposium is the oldest
continuously operating conference/symposium dedicated to simulation.
The paper sessions are designed to promote discussion of concepts, tools,
methodologies, and results between authors
and the audience. The structure of the Symposium also provides for a degree
of collegiality and continuity in the
discussions of the various topics presented during the week.
Original contribution in all areas of modeling and simulation are welcome.
This year's Symposium is particularly
seeking papers in the following topical areas:
Service-oriented Computing and Simulation.
Web-based Modeling and Simulation.
Simulation Languages, Tools, and Environments.
VLSI Circuit Simulators.
Simulation of Multiprocessor Architectures.
Simulation of Distributed Systems and Databases.
Simulation of Parallel Processing Systems.
Simulation based Performance Analysis.
Network Modeling and Simulation.
Simulation of Sensor Networks.
Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Networking and Computing.
Simulation of Large Scale Systems.
Simulation of Clusters and Grids.
Simulation of Client-Server Systems .
Simulation of Wireless Systems.
Pervasive computing.
Smart network design and traffic modeling.
Routing and Mobility Management in Networks
Wearable Computer Systems.
Mobile and Nomadic Computing.
Energy-aware Schemes for Wireless Networks.
Simulation of Real-time Systems.
Parallel and Distributed Simulation.
Simulation of Agent Systems.
Simulation based Software Performance.
