Modeling and Simulation (M&S) is increasingly becoming a central

activity in the design of new systems and in the analysis of

existing systems because it enables designers and researchers to

investigate systems behavior through virtual representations. For

this reason, M&S is gaining a primary role in many industrial and

research fields, such as space, critical infrastructures,

manufacturing, emergency management, biomedical systems and

sustainable future. However, as the complexity of the

investigated systems increases and the types of investigations

widens, the cost of M&S activities increases for the more

complex models and for the communications among a wider number and

variety of M&S stakeholders (e.g., sub-domain experts, simulator

users, simulator engineers, and final system users). To address

the increasing costs of M&S activities, collaborative

technologies must be introduced to support these activities by

fostering the sharing and reuse of models, by facilitating the

communications among M&S stakeholders, and more generally by

integrating processes, tools and platforms.

 

Aside from seeking applications of collaborative technologies to

M&S activities, the track seeks innovative contributions that

deal with the application of M&S practices in the field of

collaborative engineering platforms. These platforms are continuously 

becoming more complex, and therefore their design requires

systematic approaches to meet the required quality of

collaboration. This is important for two reasons: to reduce

rework activities on the actual collaborative environment, and to

maximize the productivity and the quality of the process the

collaborative environment supports. M&S offers the methodologies

and tools for such investigations and therefore it can be used to

improve the quality of collaborative environments.

 

A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest includes:

 

* collaborative requirements modeling

* collaborative environments for M&S

* collaborative Systems of Systems M&S

* business process modeling for collaborative environments

* agent-based M&S

* collaborative distributed simulation

* collaborative component-based M&S

* net-centric M&S

* web-based M&S

* model sharing and reuse

* model building and evaluation

* modeling and simulation of business processes

* modeling for collaboration

* performance and quality control for collaborative M&S

* simulation-based performance analysis of collaborative engineering platforms

* model-driven approaches for collaborative engineering

* domain specific languages for collaborative M&S

* databases and repositories for M&S

* distributed virtual environments

* virtual research environment for M&S

* collaborative DEVS M&S

* multi-method M&S

 

To stimulate creativity, however, the track maintains a wider

scope and invites interested researchers to present contributions

that offer original perspectives on collaboration and M&S.

On-Line Submissions and Publication

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

CoMetS'18 intends to bring together researchers and practitioners

to discuss key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative

applications and trends in the track research area.

 

Papers should contain original contributions not published or

submitted elsewhere. Papers up to six pages (including figures,

tables and references) can be submitted. Papers should follow the

IEEE format (http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html).

All submissions should be submitted in PDF format

and will be peer-reviewed by program committee members.

 

Accepted papers will be included in the proceedings and

published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

Please note that at least one author for each accepted paper should

register to attend WETICE 2021 (http://www.wetice.org) to have the

paper published in the proceedings.

 

Interested authors and participants may contact the organizers for

expression of interests and content appropriateness at any time.

 

Papers can be submitted in PDF format at the conference

submission site (see http://www.wetice.org for details),

by selecting the “Collaborative Modeling and Simulation” track.
