CALL FOR PAPERS - DEADLINE EXTENDED - Contributed Papers Deadline is April 28, 2017

Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) 2017

December 3-6, 2017 | Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa | Las Vegas, NV | http://www.wintersim.org

WSC TURNS 50: SIMULATION EVERYWHERE!

After 50 years, we are now beyond Modeling and Simulation using Grid and Cloud computing, Web-based and distributed simulation and other recent technologies. We need to deal with computing power and storage in heterogeneous environments, resources virtualization; services consumed on demand (with minimal limitation for resource location), power issues, massive datasets. We face new challenges as we have ubiquitous processors that can process applications on demand.

PROGRAM

WSC 2017 features a comprehensive program ranging from introductory tutorials to state-of-the-art research and practice, a PhD Colloquium, Poster Session, Vendor and Case Studies tracks.

WSC 2017 also incorporates MASM, the leading modeling and analysis conference for global semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain.
