CALL FOR PAPERS - DEADLINE APPROACHING
SYMPOSIUM ON THEORY OF MODELING AND SIMULATION (DEVS 2011)
April 4-9 2011. Boston Marriott Long Wharf Hotel Boston, MA. USA.
http://www.sce.carleton.ca/faculty/wainer/DEVS11
Sponsored by
The Society for Modeling and Simulation International
in cooperation with ACM/SIGSIM and ICST
The purpose of this symposium is to provide a forum to discuss recent
advancements in Theory of M&S. The main focus is on theory of modeling,
methodology, practice and software to cope with the challenges arising
out of these, as well as lessons learned and challenges. The Symposium
bridges different areas in the field of Theory of M&S, including formal
modeling, model-checking, graph transformation, modeling methodologies.
It also provides an opportunity to exchange ideas with other SpringSim'11
symposia participants in different fields.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
Theory: DEVS, Petri Nets, Finite State Machines, Timed Automata, Process
Algebras; Hybrid system modeling and integration of formalisms; Formal
analysis and symbolic reasoning; Model Checking; Graph Transformation.
M&S Software: frameworks and libraries for DEVS, PN, FSM, TA, PA, etc.;
Education aspects of Theory of M&S
Methodology: Parallel & distributed simulators; Middleware and simulators
Interoperability (grid, cloud, web services); M&S Engineering; M&S-Based
development methods.
Practice and Lessons Learned: Military systems and infrastructures;
Real-time and embedded systems; High performance computing; Software-
intensive/networked systems; Transportation and traffic systems;
Ecological and environmental systems; Standards.
All papers will be included in the conference proceedings and archived in
both the the ACM and EU Digital Libraries; Full Papers will be also
printed in hard copy.

The conference committee will accept three types of papers submitted as a
PDF file to the conference website (http://www.softconf.com/scs/DEVS11/)
as listed below. All the submitted papers should be original and not have
been submitted to other venues; they will be peer reviewed with respect to
their quality, originality and relevance.
1. Full manuscript: 8 pages in final conference format. In addition to
publication in the conference proceedings, they will be considered for
a best paper award. Full papers will be published in hard copy and CD-ROM.
2. Work in Progress: Short papers up to 6 pages in final conference
format.
3. Short Papers: Papers with industrial focus, military or government
applications, and work-in-progress in abstract or short paper format.
DEVS AWARD
==========
This year, the Symposium will hold the Second Bernard P. Zeigler DEVS M&S
Award, to recognize high-impact innovations in M&S methods, applications
and tools (sponsored by RTSync - Chair: Doohwan Kim).
