36th Annual Simulation Symposium
March 30 - April 2, 2003
Orlando, Florida
Sponsored by:
The Society for Modeling and Simulation International
In cooperation with:
The IEEE Computer Society
ACM (Association for Computing Machinery)
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:
o Object-Oriented Simulation
o Simulation Languages, Tools, and Environments
o VLSI Circuit Simulators
o Simulation of Multiprocessor Architectures
o Simulation of Distributed Systems and Databases
o Simulation of Parallel Processing Systems
o Simulation based Performance Analysis
o Network Modeling and Simulation
o Simulation of Sensor Networks
o Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Networking and
Computing
o Simulation of Large Scale Systems
o Simulation of Clusters and Grids
o Simulation of Client-Server Systems
o Simulation of Wireless Systems
o Simulation of Real-time Systems
o Parallel and Distributed Simulation
o Simulation of Agent Systems
o Simulation based Software Performance
o Reliability and Maintenance Models
o Simulation of Multimedia Applications and Systems
o Artificial Intelligence in Simulation
o Neural Network Models and Simulation
o Web-based Modeling and Simulation
o Animations/Virtual Reality
o Advances in Simulation Methodology and Practices
o Experimental design
o Meta-modeling
o Statistical Analysis and Inference
o Verification and Validation
o Selection and comparison procedures

Those unable to use electronic means should mail five (5) complete
copies
of the paper to Professor Helen Karatza by October 15, 2002.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission Deadline: 10/15/2002
Acceptance Notification: 11/30/2002
Camera-Ready Paper: 1/18/2003
All submissions will be fully refereed for accuracy, technical content,
and
relevance. Papers should be NO longer than 20 double-spaced pages.
Please
include full name, affiliation, address, phone number, and email
address of
each author and designate the author who is to be contacted. Authors
