2015 8th International ICST Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques August 24-26, 2015, Athens, Greece http://www.simutools.org Scope SIMUTools 2015 is the eighth edition of the annual International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques. The conference focuses on a broad range of research challenges in the field of simulation, modeling and analysis, addressing current and future trends in simulation techniques, models, practices and software. The conference is dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary collaborative research in these areas and across a wide spectrum of application domains. Important Dates Abstract submission deadline January 30. 2015 Short and full paper submission February 06, 2015 Building on the success of the previous seven editions (2008-2014), this year's edition will provide an exciting forum for interaction among academic and industry researchers together with practitioners from both the simulation community and the different user communities. Author notification March 31, 2015 Poster and demo submission deadline March 15, 2015 The conference invites submissions on the topics above in all application areas of simulation. Submissions in interdisciplinary areas are especially encouraged (e.g. Smart Cities, Health, Environment, Societal Challenges, Digital Humanities, Security, IT Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Business). Poster and demo notification April 20, 2015 Camera-ready deadline April 15, 2015 Conference August 24-26, 2015 Topics SIMUTools' general topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Simulation methods: discrete event, parallel and distributed simulation, time synchronization, load balancing and migration, model partitioning, hybrid simulation, simulation-interoperation, multi-resolution and multi-scale simulation Simulation techniques: service-oriented, agent-based, web-based, component-based, symbiotic simulation Simulation packages: widely used frameworks such as Modelica, ns-2/3, OPNET, Qualnet, OMNET++, and other open source software for modeling and simulation Simulation software: environments, tools, libraries, and frameworks Simulation performance: GPU-based simulation, simulation in the cloud, scalability, performance analysis Modeling formalisms: DEVS, Petri Nets, process algebras, state charts, and others Simulation verification, validation, accreditation, and analysis: benchmark models, simulation-based verification, workflows, simulation experiment design, and optimization Publications Papers must be written in English and must not exceed 10 pages. Authors should submit papers via the SIMUTools conference website in PDF format, complying with the ACM conference proceedings style. Submitted papers must not have been submitted for review or published (partially or completely) elsewhere. Every paper will be peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers. Papers will be assessed based on originality, correctness, relevance, and quality of writing. In exceptional circumstances (such as papers evidently out of scope) may not receive full-length reviews and may be rejected summarily. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the work in person at the conference. Short papers of 4 to 6 pages describing work in progress can also be submitted in the short paper category.
