++ CALL FOR PARTICIPATION TO ++ +++++++ SIMUTools 2009 +++++++
Second International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques
March 2-6, 2009 - Rome (Italy) http://www.simutools.org/
++ Sponsored by ICST/CREATE-NET ++ In technical cooperation with ACM SIGSIM, SIGMETRICS, SCS, INRIA
SIMUTools 2009 is the Second International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques. 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 program also includes broader theoretical and practical research contributions.
This edition, which builds on the success of the first conference (168 participants from 31 countries), will focus on all aspects of simulation modeling and analysis. The final conference program (soon to be published) will combine 3 outstanding plenary talks (one each day, see speakers below) with 2 parallel tracks of high quality, peer reviewed, 50+ papers presentations. The Conference will also offer to its participants many opportunities for establishing new contacts and start lively and passionate discussions: a Poster session combined with a friendly social event, a "hot topic" panel discussion, and last but not least, its usual lot of coffee breaks, lunch breaks and, of course, the traditional Conference banquet.
In conjunction with the main Conference, to be held on March 3-5 2009, 4 high quality one-day workshops will be held on March 2 and 6:
