Subject: CFP: Parallel and Distributed Simulation (PADS92)
Call For Papers
6th Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Simulation (PADS)
Jointly Sponsored by SCS, IEEE, and ACM
20-22 January 1992 (part of the 1992 Western Multiconference)
Newport Beach, California
This is the oldest and longest running conference on parallel and
distributed simulation. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:
o Techniques, algorithms, and systems for concurrent simulation
(e.g., discrete, continuous, combined, real time, optimistic,
conservative)
o Programming constructs and languages for concurrent simulation
o Performance evaluation of concurrent simulation algorithms and
systems
o Special purpose parallel simulation (e.g., logic, cache
simulations)
o Concurrent graphics and animation for simulation
o Relationship of concurrent simulation and computer
architecture (e.g., SIMD, geographically distributed
computing, tightly coupled multiprocessors)
o Case studies applying concurrent simulation techniques to
production simulation software
Schedule:
1 July 1991: Deadline for program chair to receive paper
submissions (6 copies). This date may precede the
deadline line for the remainder of the Western
Multiconference. Any paper received after 1 July 1991
risks rejection without consideration of its merits.
15 Sep. 1991: Notification of acceptance
15 Oct. 1991: Tentative deadline for camera ready copy
All submissions will be reviewed. Paper acceptance is moderately
competitive; about half of last year's submissions were accepted.
Because the identity of authors and referees will not be revealed to
each other, authors' names and affiliations should appear only on the
cover sheet. Bibliographic references should be modified so as not to
reveal the author's identity.
Papers must be in English. Do not submit a paper that has been
submitted to (or has appeared in) any other conference or journal. In
addition to regular papers (8 pages), the program committee may
accept additional papers either as short papers (4 pages) or for
inclusion in a poster session. Poster abstracts will appear in the
proceedings. Papers judged to be especially high in quality will be
forwarded for consideration by the ACM Transactions on Modeling and
Computer Simulation.
Submissions with a cover letter stating the name, address (postal and
electronic), and phone number of each author should be sent to Marc
Abrams, Program Chairman.
