A track will be devoted to each of the topics in parallel. The Conference Language is English. Simulation Methodology and Application Coordination: Prof. Dr. Andras Javor, Hungary -Simulation Languages, -Engineering Applications, -Knowledge Based Simulation Tools, -Distributed and Parallel System Simulation, -Graphical Model Editors Computer and Telecommunications Systems Coordination: Winfried Dulz, Germany -Electronic Circuits and Components, - Parallel and Distributed Systems, -High Speed Networks ISDN and ATM Communications, -Multimedia Systems Dependability Evaluation Coordination: G. Horton, United Kingdom -Reliability and Availability Assurance, -Fault Forecasting, -Safety and Security, -Fault Tolerance Analytical and Numerical Modelling Techniques Coordination: Hermann de Meer, The Netherlands -Queuing Networks, -Stochastic Petri Nets, -Markov Models, -Optimization Simulation in Automation Coordination: Klaus Feldmann, Germany -Scheduling, -Manufacturing, -System Optimization, -Applications Simulation in Business Coordination: Peter Mertens, Germany -Production Planning -Logistics, -Risk-Analysis, -Combination of Simulation and AI-Techniques SYMPOSIUM: MISSION EARTH Coordination: Alfred Jones, USA Mission Earth is an Activity of the Society for Computer Simulation International. Its purpose is the identification and dissemination of the unique benefits of World Simulation as the prime tool for use in planning and monitoring a sustainable future for the World System. Keynote Speakers: A. Alan B. Pritsker, Ph.D. Pritsker Corporation, President and CEO New Roles for Simulation in Industry Prof. Dr. Hansjoerg Fromm IBM Deutschland Produktion GmbH Workflow Management and the Simulation of Business Processes Invited Speakers Focusing on the main tracks of the Conference, invited speakers will give special in-depth presentations in plenary sessions, which will be included in the Proceedings of the Conference. Best Paper Awards The 1995 European Simulation Symposium will award the best papers, one in each track. From these papers the best overall paper will be chosen. The awarded papers will be published in an International Journal, if necessary after incorporating modifications to the paper. Deadlines and Requirements: Extended Abstracts(2-3 pages for full, 1 page for short papers typewritten without drawings and tables) are due to arrive in quadruplicate at the European Simulation Office Philippe Geril The Society for Computer Simulation International European Simulation Office University of Ghent, Coupure Links 653, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium Tel. (Office) : +32.9.2337790 Tel.+Fax (Private): +32.59.800.804 Fax: +32.9.2234941 e-mail: philippe.geril@ rug.ac.be before April 26, 1995 Only original Papers, written in English, which have not previously been published elsewhere will be accepted. In case you want to organize a panel discussion, please contact the Program Chairmen. Authors are expected to register early (at a reduced fee) and to attend the Conference at their own expense to present the accepted papers. If early registration and payment are not made, the paper will not be published in the Conference Proceedings. In the case of multiple authors, one author should be identified as the person who will act as the correspondent for the paper. Abstracts will be reviewed by three members of the International Program Committee for full papers and one member for short papers. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent by June 1, 1995. An author kit with complete instructions for preparing a camera-ready copy for the Proceedings will be sent to authors of accepted abstracts. The camera-ready copy of the papers must be in by August 31, 1995. Only the full papers, which are expected to be five pages long, will be published in the Conference Proceedings. In order to guarantee a high-quality Conference, the full papers will be reviewed as well, to check whether the suggestions of the program committee have been incorporated. The nominees fo r the best paper awards will be selected as well. Submission Deadline: April 28, 1995 Acceptance Notification: June 1, 1995 Camera-Ready Copies: August 31, 1995 Conference Information The ESS series (organized by SCSI, the Society for Computer Simulation International) is now in its seventh year. SCSI is an International non-profit organization founded in 1952. On a yearly basis SCSI organizes six Simulation Conferences worldwide, cooperates in two others, and publishes the monthly magazine "Simulation", a quarterly "Transactions", and books. For more information, please tick the appropriate box on the reply-card Exhibits An exhibition will be held in the area, where the participants are having coffee during the breaks. There will be a special exhibition section for universities and non-profit organizations, and a special section for publishers and commercial stands. If you would like to participate in the exhibition, please contact the European Office. Venue Erlangen is a city with 100.000 inhabitants 10 miles away from Nuremberg. Erlangen hosts the SIEMENS Research Center and a well known university with ca. 36.000 students. The Symposium will be held at the university in one of the buildings directly in the center of the city. The International airport of Nuremberg is only 6 miles away from the center of Erlangen.
