SIMUTools 2010 is the Third International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques. This edition, which builds on the success of 2008 and 2009, will focus on all aspects of simulation modeling and analysis. High quality papers are sought on simulation tools, methodologies, applications, and practices.
The aim of the conference is to bring academic and industry researchers together with practitioners (from both the simulation community and from the numerous simulation user communities). The conference will address current and future trends in simulation techniques, models and practices, and foster interdisciplinary collaborative research in this area. While the main focus of the conference is on simulation tools, the conference also encourages the submission of broader theoretical and practical research contributions.
General areas of interest include: - Simulation methods: discrete event, parallel and distributed, hybrid, load balancing, partitioning, simulation-interoperation
- Simulation techniques: service-oriented, agent-based, web-based, component-based, symbiotic simulation
- Simulation tools, libraries and frameworks, including specialized tools, such as ns-2/3, OPNET, ATDI ICS, Qualnet, OMNET++, NIIST, e-cell, and other open source tools
- Modeling formalisms: DEVS, Petri Nets, process algebras, state charts, and others
- Simulation verification, validation, accreditation, and analysis: benchmark models, simulation-based verification, workflow, simulation experiment design, optimization, and simulation coercion.
