September 9 – 13, LJUBLJANA, SLOVENIA

6th EUROSIM Congresson Modelling and Simulation

Web site:www.eurosim2007.org

• EUROSIM 2007 will be the key event of the EUROSIM - Federation of European Simulation Societies.

• EUROSIM 2007 will be a high-quality congress with plenary lectures, tutorials, regular sessions, special sessions, students session, poster sessions, exhibitions (books).

• EUROSIM 2007 will include interesting social events. • EUROSIM 2007 will take place in Slovenia, one of Europe's top tourist destinations,

where the Alpine region meets the Mediterranean Sea. Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, and host to the EUROSIM 2007, is a lively, university city with a wide variety of attractions for visitors.

PROGRAMME:

• Plenary lectures

• Regular sessions

• Special sessions

• Poster session

• Student competition and

• Tutorials

Papers will be published in two Proceedings Volumes:

• Volume 1: Book of Abstracts

• Volume 2: DVD volume with full papers and multimedia files


SCOPE AND TOPICS:

The scope includes all aspects of continuous, discrete (event) and hybrid modelling, simulation, identification and optimisation approaches. So the common denominator is problems solving with modelling and simulation in a way that can be useful also for solving other problems in similar or different areas. Contributions from technical (engineering) areas but also from nontechnical areas are welcome.

M&S methods and technologies:

Modelling and simulation of complex, large scale, distributed, hybrid, hierarchical, stochastic, control, expert, adaptive, fuzzy, decision support, multivariable, multiagent, reconfigurable, agent based, knowledge based, real time, queuing systems, scheduling, parallel processing concepts, high performance computing, M&S system architectures, neural networks, model validation and verification, simulation lifecycle evolution, genetic algorithms, man-in-the loop simulation, hardware-in-the loop simulation, nested simulation models, distributed enterprise simulation, data mining, bond graphs, simulation with Petri nets, discrete event simulation, statistic modelling, component based modelling, object oriented modelling, mathematical /numerical methods in simulation, graphical modelling, nano technology modelling, embedded and firmware modelling, middleware architecture modelling, visualisation, graphics and animation, modelling and simulation tools, WEB based simulation, human behaviour representation techniques, virtual reality and virtual environments, CAD/CAM/CIM/CAE, experiential digital media, future of M&S.

M&S applications:

Aerospace, automotive systems and transportation, agriculture, architecture, biopharmacy, biomedicine, bioinformatics, genomics, business, applied chemistry, civil engineering, communications, ecological and environmental systems, economics, econometrics, economics of M&S, education, electrical engineering, geophysical systems, industrial processes, logistics, manufacturing systems, maintenance, reliability, marine systems, materials modelling and simulation, mechanical engineering, mechatronics, meteorology/climate, military systems, organisational processes, power systems, applied psychology, process engineering, social sciences, robotics, mobile robotics, seismism, traffic/transportation, training simulators, water management and treatment, systems biology, pulp&paper, computational fluid dynamics, supply chains, plant data and lifecycle management.
