[Acpc-l] Track on Parallel and Distributed Simulation at ESM 2001

[Johannes Luethi]

Dear collegues,


I'd like to remind you that there will be a special track on 
Parallel and Distributed Simulation as part of the

  /------------------------------------------------------\
  |  15th European Simulation Multiconference (ESM 2001) |
  |               Prague, Czech Republic                 |
  |                  June 6-9, 2001                      |
  \------------------------------------------------------/


PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED SIMULATION 
Track Chair: Johannes Luthi (Germany) 
Program Chair: Clemens Berchtold (Germany). 
Program Co-chair: Thomas Schulze (Germany) 

Topics cover but are not limited to:
 
- Methods and techniques for parallel simulation 
  (scheduling, synchronisation, load balancing)
- Performance of parallel and distributed simulation 
  (experimental and comparative studies, performance models, benchmarks) 
- High Level Architecture (HLA) and related standards 
  (time management, model semantics, implementation issues)
- Application of parallel and distributed simulation 
  (computer systems, manufacturing systems, etc.)
- Parallelisation of continuous simulations 
  (numerical methods, (Quasi)-Monte-Carlo simulation)
- Web-based distributed simulation 
  (distributed modelling via the Web, Java)
