CALL FOR PAPERS
SYMPOSIUM ON THEORY OF MODELING AND SIMULATION (TMS/DEVS 2012)
March 26-29, 2012, The Florida Hotel, Orlando, FL, USA.
http://www.tms-devs.org
Sponsored by
The Society for Modeling and Simulation International
Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society
in cooperation with ACM/SIGSIM and ICST
The purpose of this symposium is to provide a forum to discuss recent
advancements in Theory of M&S. The main focus is on theory of modeling,
methodology, practice and software to cope with the challenges arising
out of these, as well as lessons learned and challenges. The Symposium
bridges different areas in the field of Theory of M&S, including formal
modeling, model-checking, graph transformation, modeling methodologies.
It also provides an opportunity to exchange ideas with other
SpringSim'12
symposia participants in different fields.
All papers will be included in the conference proceedings and archived
in the IEEE Computer Society DL, the ACM DL and the EUDL.
