                                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
