Fujimoto) To: simulation@ufl.edu Subject: Call for papers - Distributed simulation conference Call For Papers Distributed/Parallel Simulation Part of the 1989 Eastern Multiconference March 28-31, 1989 Tampa, Florida All papers related to the execution of continuous or discrete event simulation programs on multiple processor computing systems are invited. Papers may deal with simulation on systems ranging from geographically distributed computing systems to tightly coupled multiprocessors and SIMD machines. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Methods for distributed, concurrent simulation, both discrete event and continuous * Concurrent simulation methods for particular classes of systems (e.g., neural networks, electronic circuits, weather, computer systems and communication networks, military applications) * Concurrent graphics and animation for simulation * Concurrent real time simulations (e.g., flight simulators, robot control) * Machine architectures for concurrent simulation * Programming constructs and languages for concurrent simulation * Performance evaluation methods for concurrent simulation * Empirical performance evaluation studies General Chairman Dr. Brian Unger Dept. of Computer Science University of Calgary Calgary, Alberta T2N 1N4 (403) 220-6316 Program Chairman Dr. Richard Fujimoto Dept. of Computer Science University of Utah Salt Lake City, Utah 84112 (801) 581-4845 Papers must be in English and will be limited to 6 pages in the conference proceedings. Each submission should include the name, complete address and phone number of each author. Send four copies of the full text of papers to: Brian W. Unger SCS P.O. Box 17900 San Diego, CA 92117 (619) 277-3888 Papers are due August 15, 1988. Authors will be notified of acceptance October 15, 1988. Final papers are due December 15, 1988.

I would like to learn from the experiences of SIMSCRIPT users, in particular for Sun machines. Also, if somebody out there is using the COMNET II.5 from CACI too, please let me know. Thanks a lot. ------------- Francis Kam Computer Science Department Internet: mkkam@sun1.cs.uh.edu University of Houston CSNET: mkkam@houston.csnet 4800 Calhoun Phone: (713)749-1748 Houston, TX 77004. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Jul 88 14:36:19 EDT From: gatech!rutgers!rochester!kodak!ornitz@bikini.cis.ufl.edu (barry ornitz) To: uflorida!simulation Subject: Re: SIMULATION DIGEST V3 N6 Newsgroups: comp.simulation In-Reply-To: <16547@uflorida.cis.ufl.EDU> Organization: Eastman Kodak Co, Rochester, NY Back in the late 60's and early 70's, your chemical engineering department had analog and hybrid computers. They might be a good place to start. IBM's CSMP Continuous Systems Modeling Program and others have largely replaced most analog computer applications. EAI's "Handbook of Analog Computation" and "Basics of Parallel Hybrid Computation" will be useful to you. You will also find the Burr-Brown book "Operational Amplifiers: Design and Applications" and the "Nonlinear Circuits Handbook" by Analog Devices handy. I learned more about the tuning of feedback control systems using an analog computer in repetitative operation mode in one afternoon than most people learn in months of control theory classes.

Like Mr. Shu, I am particularly interested in the topic of simulating combat between ground troops but at the battalion level. Any direction you could give would be greatly appreciated. Please send any responses to the address below: goldston@uncmed (usenet) or goldston@med.unc.edu (internet) Thanks in advance.

Simula is (for who all of you doesn't know...) the oldest OOPLanguage in the programming world. As you hear of the name, Simula is desiged for simulation-problems. Therefore I would recommend all unix\-SUN\Simula-Compiler to contact Lund Software House for code. Contact person: boris@dna.lu.bse PS: I rather use C++, if I only had the latest version ofthecompiler ... +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Anders Ulfheden | USENET: ulfis@nada.kth.se Running on a Pyraid... | Royal Institute of Technology | Stockholm, Sweden +--------------------------+ | END OF SIMULATION DIGEST | +--------------------------+
