Many educational institutions have begun to offer either courses or entire degree programs in modeling and simulation (M&S). This track is soliciting papers that explore the emerging field of M&S education and the issues surrounding its development and use. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
|
Modeling and simulation as its own discipline |
|
|
Modeling and simulation body of knowledge: what should be included? |
|
|
Modeling and simulation curriculum: engineering, science, or multidisciplinary? |
|
|
Modeling and simulation research and its role in education |
|
|
Modeling, simulation, and gaming as a teaching tool |
|
|
Modeling and simulation and workforce development: what are the challenges? |

| Abstracts due | 1 Oct 2007 | Authors who would like to know if a particular topic would be of interest to the symposium can submit an extended (1-2 page) abstract directly to the chair by this deadline. An abstract will not be considered a submission, just a means for providing initial feedback. |
| Full Paper Submission due | 15 Nov 2007 | |
| Notification | 15 Dec 2007 | The program committee will review the papers and determine which ones will be accepted. |
| Final Paper due | 11 Jan 2008 | The final version of accepted papers, incorporating changes based on reviewer comments, are due by this date. |
