Call for Papers
DS-RT 2003
Seventh IEEE* International Symposium on
Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications,
October 23-25, 2003,
Delft, The Netherlands.
http://www.cs.unibo.it/ds-rt2003/
In conjunction with 15th European Simulation Symposium (ESS 2003)
October 26-29, 2003, Delft, The Netherlands
Hosted by the Delft University of Technology
*IEEE Approval Pending
SCOPE
In its seventh year, the 2003 International Symposium on Distributed
Simulation and Real Time Applications (DS-RT 2003) will take place at
the Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands, just before
the European Simulation Symposium (ESS 2003).
This is an excellent opportunity to participate in two conferences
covering a wide range of simulation research.
SYMPOSIUM OBJECTIVES
DS-RT 2003 serves as a forum for simulationists from academia, industry
and research labs, for presenting recent research results in Distributed
Simulation and Real Time Applications. DS-RT 2003 targets the growing
overlap between large distributed simulations and real time
applications. The conference features prominent invited speakers as well
as papers by top researchers in the field. DS-RT 2003 will include
contributed technical papers, invited papers, and panel discussions.
The proceedings will be published by IEEE-CS press.
CALL FOR PAPERS
DS-RT is intended to provide an international forum for the discussion
and presentation of original ideas, recent results and achievements by
researchers, students, and systems developers on issues and challenges
related to distributed simulation and real time applications. Authors
are encouraged to submit both theoretical and practical results of
significance. Demonstration of new tools/applications is very desirable.
The scope of the symposium includes, but is not limited to:
o- Interactive Virtual Reality, Multi-User Virtual Reality, Interactive
Simulation in Entertainment;
o- Algorithms and Studies relating to existing protocols (e.g., HLA,
DIS);
o- Implementation issues; (e.g., general purpose distributed simulation);
o- Algorithms and Methods for Distributed Interactive Simulation
(e.g.,event synchronization, network time protocols);
o- Applications of Distributed Simulation
(e.g., Real Time DS, large distributed simulation systems);
o- Distributed Models and Simulation for Analysis;
o- Data Distribution Management and Interest Management;
o- Multi-resolution modeling;
o- Current Critical Design Issues (e.g.: causality, simultaneous events,
zero look-ahead, compensation for slower than real time);
o- Methodology for Distributed/Parallel Simulation;
o- Approaches to interoperation of COTS simulation modelling packages;
o- Interface Definition, Communication, Management, Security;
o- Performance of Distributed Simulation; (e.g., benchmark, theoretical,
empirical, and HLA/RTI studies);
o- Dead-Reckoning Mechanisms;
o- Visual Interactive Simulation (e.g., generic animation, visual
interactive modeling, interactive computer based learning);
o- Animating Language Tools, Visualization Tools for Computational
Process under Simulation;
o- Language and Modeling Issues;
o- Modeling and Simulation Environments for Real Time Concurrent Systems;
o- Influence of Network-Centric Systems (such as Java, and DCOM) on DIS;
o- Interoperable Communication Networks;
o- Network support for distributed simulation and real-time systems
(QoS requirements and their realization, multicast for distributed/
real-time simulation systems);
o- Applications of Web-Based Simulation (e.g. Modeling Global Internet);
o- Integration of DIS and HLA with Web Technologies.
