WinterSim '16

Date: Dec 11, 2016 6:00 am – Dec 14, 2016 5:00 pm
Location: Washington, D.C.

2016 Winter Simulation Conference

December 11-14, 2016 | Washington, D.C. | http://www.wintersim.org/

The Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) is the premier international forum for disseminating recent advances in the field of dynamic systems modeling and simulation. In addition to a technical program of unsurpassed scope and quality, WSC provides the central meeting place for simulation practitioners, researchers and vendors. Research in modeling and simulation is propelled by fostering cross-fertilization between various disciplines. The Modelling Methodology is one of the traditional tracks, and there is still time to submit papers.

Modeling Methodology Track information:

Track Chairs:

  • Levent Yilmaz, Auburn University
  • Gabriel Wainer, Carleton University.

The Modeling Methodology track is interested in methodological advances with respect to the theory and practice of modeling and simulation. These may include approaches to model development, data capture, model building, verification, validation, experimentation, and optimization. Contributions to the advancement of the technology and the  software used to support modeling are also welcome as are contributions featuring guiding or unifying frameworks, the development and application of meaningful formal methods, and lessons learned. All modeling paradigms are accepted and supported. If you have an idea for a special session or a panel discussion of particular interest to the WSC participants, please send an email with a short description and references to the work of relevant experts to the track chairs.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Modeling paradigms
  • Formal modeling languages
  • Modeling approaches for real-time systems
  • Technological advances in modeling software
  • Spatial and temporal modeling
  • Multilevel modeling
  • Multi-paradigm modeling
  • Multi-formalism modeling
  • Model reuse, repositories and retrieval
  • Distributed simulation
  • Modeling with ontologies
  • Semantic tools supporting modeling methods
  • Standardization challenges
  • Epistemological perspectives
  • Modeling for augmented reality
  • Enhancing the impact of modeling and simulation
  • Grand challenges for modeling and simulation
