Sponsored
by:
The Society for Computer Simulation
(SCS)
In cooperation
with:
The IEEE Computer
Society
ACM (Association for Computing Machinery)
The Annual Simulation Symposium
is a forum for the exchange of ideas,
techniques, and applications among
practitioners of simulation in industry,
government, and academia. This
international Symposium is the oldest
continuously operating
conference/symposium dedicated to simulation.
The paper sessions are
designed to promote discussion of concepts, tools,
methodologies, and results
between authors and the audience. The structure of
the Symposium also
provides for a degree of collegiality and continuity in
the discussions of
the various topics presented during the week.
Original contribution in
all areas of modeling and simulation are welcome.
This year's Symposium is
particularly seeking papers in the following
topical
areas:
o Simulation of Multiprocessor
Architectures
o VLSI Circuit
Simulators
o Simulation Languages, Tools, and
Environments
o Object-Oriented
Simulation
o Simulation of Distributed Systems and
Databases
o Simulation of Parallel Processing
Systems
o Simulation based Performance
Analysis
o Animations/Virtual
Reality
o Advances in Simulation Methodology and
Practices
o Network Modeling and
Simulation
o Simulation of Multimedia Applications and
Systems
o Parallel and Distributed
Simulation
o Artificial Intelligence in
Simulation
o Neural Network Models and
Simulation
o Web-based Modeling and
Simulation

PAPER SUBMISSION:
It is
strongly recommended that papers be submitted to one of the
program co-chairs
by electronic mail. Papers can also be submitted
electronically via
anonymous ftp to agent.csd.auth.gr/ANNSS35.
Those unable to use electronic
means should mail five (5) complete copies
of the paper to Professor Azzedine
Boukerche by October 15, 2001.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission
Deadline: 10/15/2001
Acceptance Notification:
11/30/2001
Camera-Ready Paper: 1/18/2002
All submissions will be
fully refereed for accuracy, technical content, and
relevance. Papers
should be NO longer than 20 double-spaced pages. Please
include full name,
affiliation, address, phone number, and email address of
each author and
designate the author who is to be contacted. Authors will
receive the
reviewers' comments and will be given a chance to respond to
these reviews.
Authors' replies will be taken into consideration in the
final paper
selection decision. Accepted papers will appear in the
Symposium's
Proceedings which will be published by the IEEE Computer
Society. Authors of
top papers will also be encouraged to submit a follow-on
paper for
publication in the SCS Journals.
Only papers that have not been
previously published or presented should be
submitted. Authors must obtain
employer, client, or government releases
prior to submitting the final
manuscript.
TOOLS TRACK
Authors are encouraged to submit papers
describing tools suitable for
on-line demonstration. The tools papers will
undergo a regular review process
and will be published in the conference
proceedings in a dedicated tools
section. Separate sessions are planned where
these tools will be demonstrated
on-line.
