The computers in this network are themselves interactively operated by humans. The purpose of the simulator is to effectively extend the network by simulating additional network (computer/human) nodes. A realistic node model is of primary interest. I would appreciate references (or first hand information) on work related to discrete event simulators which interoperate with real world systems like the one described above. Parallel simulation and rulebased simulation are also of interest.

What I am interested in is the transient performance following unexpected events (the performance after a link failure). It seems that most papers or books on analysis of simulation data deal with steady-state situation. Could anyone give me some advice on output analysis of transient phase and recommand some references. Thank you in advance.

I need to build an aircraft simulator this term and was wondering if anyone in the group might have some relevant pointers. The simulator will only be a test bed for a controller based on fuzzy logic so I do not need sophisticated output.

I am interested in setting up an infrastructure covering major companies / universities and metropolises for effective and coordinated publicity and session planning. Specifically, I am interested in setting up company / university representatives and regional representatives. I would like to open for volunteers for the above mentioned activities. Volunteers may give their address, phone #s and e-mail address mentioning how they can help. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE APPROACH WILL BE USED ************************************************************************ IEEE TENCON 1989, BOMBAY, INDIA ************************************************************************ Dear Friend and Volunteer, Thank you for your interest. Your role in TENCON can not only benefit you, but also your employer. TENCON is an international IEEE conference. It is a Region 10 conference conducted every year. Region 10 covers the Far East (Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, Singapore, India, South Korea and other countries) and Australia among other countries. The conference is hosted this year by the IEEE Bombay Section. The conference organizers and attendees will come from many countries around the world. I am giving below suggestions for your involvement in the conference. I am sure all of you can be creative and think of more ways to contribute to the conference. : a. First thing you can do is to publicize about the conference in you organization (university, industry). b. You can submit a paper for the conference and identify people in your organization and professional circles who will be interested in submitting a paper. c. More experienced people can organize a session. Students and new graduates can identify more experienced people (seniors professionals, professors) interested in organizing a tutorial or paper session and pursue it. d. Exhibits are planned during the conference. You may contact your employer or a company you know to explore their interest in the exhibits. The conference being international, delegates and attendees from many countries around the world are the target receipients of the product information. Companies exhibiting and sending their employees as attendees can benefit from potential contacts that can translate into business. I will be glad to guide and provide help for any of the activities. You as a volunteer, attendee, paper presenter or session organizer can convince your employer of the benefits of your and your management's participation in this conference. ************************************************************************ Please send me your session proposal and / or paper by e-mail first. Please include the following: Title of the session Summary of the session Sub-topics of the session Potential / actual papers (title, author, estimated number of pages abstract, if any) Details of the session organizer(s) / chair(s) (address, phone(s), fax, e-mail address bio, IEEE experience, session experience) For a paper please include: Title of the paper Author's details (address, phone, fax, e-mail address) Abstract Estimated number of pages You have to send a hard copy of your submittal later. ********************************************************************** Some hints for your session preparation 1. Please note that a session as planned now has time for 4 to 5 paper presentations (sessions are approximately 1 1/2 hours long). 3. It is advisible that you keep in mind, or have definite sources, potential authors ( or atleast universities / research organizations where work is underway in U.S.A., India and other countries) for the topics of your session. The papers should provide a balanced perspective, while encompassing the full spectrum of topics of the session. So, the title of the session and the papers (and topics in the session) in the session should support each other. 4. The conference is an IEEE international conference. Organized and hosted by sections in countries of IEEE region 10, this is the fourth year of TENCON. This year it is in Bombay, India. So, the conference should cater to the needs of attendees from not only the hosting country, but also countries of Region 10 and the whole world. The sessions should reflect this approach. I realize that practically the focus and scope of the sessions are affected by the response from paper presenters and attendees. Please proceed with your efforts. We can always tune the session title, its theme and topics covered based on the response for the call for papers. Continue the good work. Please keep me posted of any progress as well as problems. Thank you again. K.R.S.
