             Dear Member of the Simulation Community,

Don't miss out on the opportunity to partake in one of the year's most
interesting and informative conferences in Simulation Science.  

We are very excited and proud to announce the Fifth Annual Enabling
Technology for Simulation Science Conference to be held 17-20 Apr 2001
in
Orlando, Florida. 

We have a guest list this year like none before.   Take advantage of
this
opportunity to hear about the latest research in Simulation Science.
Listen to presentations on cutting-edge simulation technology from the
experts in academia, industry and the Department of Defense.  Find out
what
everybody in the Simulation Community is working toward and what the
customers want from YOU!  Don't miss out!

SPIE-The International Society for Optical Engineering 



SPIE is an international technical society dedicated to advancing
engineering, scientific, and commercial applications of optical,
photonic,
imaging, electronic, and optoelectronic technologies. Its members are
engineers, scientists, and users interested in the development and
reduction
to practice of these technologies. SPIE provides the means for
communicating
new developments and applications information to the engineering,
scientific, and user communities through its publications, symposia,
education programs, and online electronic information services.

Enabling Technology for Simulation Science V (or27) 
 
Part of SPIE's 15 th International Symposium on AeroSense
 
16-20 April 2001 
Marriott's Orlando World Center Resort and Convention Center
Orlando, Florida USA
 
Conference Chairs: Alex F. Sisti, Dawn A. Trevisani, Air Force Research
Lab.
Program Committee: Paul K. Davis, The RAND Corp.; Lawrence J. Fogel,
Natural
Selection, Inc.; Christos G. Cassandras, Boston Univ.; Steven D. Farr,
Air
Force Research Lab;  Timothy Busch, Air Force Research Lab; Paul A.
Fishwick, Univ. of Florida; Steve Gordon, Air Force Agency for Modeling
and
Simulation;  William K. McQuay, Air Force Research Lab.; Bernard P.
Zeigler,
Univ. of Arizona.

While there has been much attention paid lately to the field of Modeling
and
Simulation as a general tool to be used in specific and well-founded
application areas, little has been done to address those broad
technology
areas that enable such application-oriented simulations to be more
easily
constructed, run, and analyzed. 

This conference deals with the wide variety of research issues in
simulation
science being addressed by government, academia and industry. 

 Presentation Topics include: 

*	

	Multiresolution Modeling Approaches 
	
*	

	Model Abstraction/Multiresolution Modeling Applications
*	

	Enabling Analysis of Mission-System Capabilities 
	
*	

	Advanced Methods for Simulation Speedup
*	

	3D Model Architectures
	
*	

	Collaboration Tools, Techniques and Environments
	
*	

	Simulation Paradigms
	
*	

	Multiresolution Modeling Issues and Approaches for Communications
Modeling
	
*	

	Simulation Design Considerations
	
*	

	Enabling Technologies for Military Applications
	
*	

	Special Session - Joint Service M&S Technology Programs
	
*	

	M&S technologies for Decision Support I: Control Theoretic
Approaches 
*	

	M&S Technologies for Decision Support II:  
*	

	Effects Based Operations
