Special Session:

DEVS Collaborative Execution and Systems Modeling over SOA

CALL FOR PAPERS

DEVS Integrative M&S Symposium (DEVS '07) is the premier forum for the presentation of technological advances and research results in the fields of theoretical, experimental, and applied Modeling and Simulation using Discrete EVent Systems (DEVS) Specification. It is the goal of this symposium to foster information exchange, discussion, presentation of original ideas, recent results and achievments by researchers, students, system developers on issues and challenges related to distributed simulation and real-time applications. Author(s) are encouraged to submit both practical and theoretical results of significance. Demonstration of new tools and applications is encouraged.

The scope of this special session includes, but is not limited to:

Collaborative, Virtual environments over SOA e.g. interative applications, time management and shared data manipulation
Data distribution management over distributed models
Multi-resolutional modeling and simulation over the web
Simulation as a service within SOA application framework
Model-based System design and rapid feedback cycle using SOA
Interface definition, communication, management
Hierarchical organization of data, models, simulators and their design based on system requirement specification
Comparative evaluation of various methodologies in development of SOA based simulation models
Applications of web-based Simulation
Distributed model execution using simulation as a Service
Server side design of Simulation engines
Methodologies to transform an existing simulation model to SOA capable model
Automated translation and transformation of model behavior into Service components e.g. model-continuity over SOA, Simulation life cycle methodology
Model interoperability and remote execution over SOA
Model partitioning and simulation control over SOA
Dynamic Model reconfiguration over SOA
Use of XML as a communication and/or abstraction/encapsulation mechanism for SOA based models
Performance evaluation of SOA simulation system

Application Areas:
Aeronautics, Automation and Manufacturing, Automobile, Environmental systems, Robotics and Mechanical systems, Transportation Systems, Software Engineering, Military Systems, Simulation & Applications in Social sciences, Engineering, Electronics, Physics, Mechanics, Applied Statistics, Economy, and Education
