CFP: 36th Annual Simulation Symposium, March 30 - April 2, 2003, Orlando, Florida

                      36th Annual Simulation Symposium

                          March 30 - April 2, 2003
                            Orlando, Florida



                                Sponsored by:
            The Society for Modeling and Simulation International


                            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 Object-Oriented Simulation
                 o Simulation Languages, Tools, and Environments
                 o VLSI Circuit Simulators
