Military, Government and Aerospace Simulation (MGA'03)

Part of the 2003 Advanced Simulation Technologies Conference (ASTC 2003)

Sponsored by:
The Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS)

March 30 - April 3, 2003

Hyatt Orlando Hotel
Orlando, Florida

Next year’s symposium on Military, Government and Aerospace simulation will continue a series of annual spring symposiums devoted to the full breadth of simulation in the arenas of military, government and aerospace. This symposium, like the others in the Advanced Simulation Technologies Conference, is a place for networking, discussions and exchange of information with colleagues in your field and in other related fields. It also provides an international forum for acquiring unpublished public information on the latest technologies.

Topic areas include (but are not limited to):

Homeland Defense
Force Protection
Consequence Management
Passive and Active Defense
Counterforce Operations
Security and Protection of Agents
Intelligent Agents
Human Performance Modeling
Visualization & Virtual Reality
C4I Simulation
Embedded Training
Avionics / Flight Control Simulation & Visualization
Battle Field / Battle Theater Simulation
DIS/DIS++/SISO
High-Level Architecture (HLA)
Ballistics & Propellant Simulation
Impact and Penetration Modeling
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Molecular Dynamics Modeling
Structural Mechanics Modeling
Solid Mechanics Modeling
Flight Simulation & Methodologies
Lethality, Vulnerability & Survivability
Mission Planning & Rehearsal
Simulation & Control of Spacecraft
Intelligent Systems Simulation
