Call for Papers
The CoMetS track aims to foster innovative research contributions that address collaboration issues in the field of M&S and vice versa.
Aside from seeking applications of collaborative technologies to M&S activities, the track seeks innovative contributions that deal with the application of M&S practices in the field of collaborative engineering platforms. These platforms are continuously becoming more complex and therefore their design requires systematic approaches to meet the required quality of collaboration. This is important for two reasons: to reduce rework activities on the actual collaborative environment, and to maximize the productivity and the quality of the process the collaborative environment supports. M&S offers the methodologies and tools for such investigations and therefore it can be used to improve the quality of collaborative environments.
A non–exhaustive list of topics of interest includes:
- collaborative requirements modeling
- collaborative environments for M&S
- collaborative Systems of Systems M&S
- business proces modeling for collaborative environments
- agent-based M&S
- collaborative distributed simulation
- collaborative component-based M&S
- net-centric M&S
- web-based M&S
- model sharing and reuse
- model building and evaluation
- modeling and simulation of business processes
- modeling for collaboration
- simulation-based performance analysis of collaborative engineering platforms
- model-driven approaches for collaborative engineering
- domain specific languages for collaborative M&S
- databases and repositories for M&S
- distributed virtual environments
- virtual research environment for M&S
- collaborative DEVS M&S
- multi-method M&S
To stimulate creativity, however, the track maintains a wider scope and invites interested researchers to present contributions that offer original perspectives on collaboration and M&S.
This year, we will accept submissions in the form of papers and posters. Poster submissions may be offered a short slot for oral presentation and live demo. Please see the submission page for more details.
