INFOTA—Foundation for information Society

INFOTA is the last satellite center that has joined the MISS network. The Foundation for Information Society (ITA) established in 1998 together with INFOTA Research Institute working within its frameworks aims at supporting the development of information technology in Hungary. In the spirit of its Founding Articles it wishes to support IT-focusing scientific activities and research, as well as IT centres involved in the matter, with special regard to the development of computer-infrastructure in Hungary. ITA’s primary objective is to facilitate that application-centred understanding of information and knowledge management, its electronic data processing and information technology background together with the relevant human, organisational, legal, management and social scientific aspects, as well as that its interdisciplinary approach is adopted in Hungary. This is the basic concept that constitutes a framework for all research areas wherefrom individual research topics, analyses and projects aim to explore different elements [...]

SCS Student Chapters

At the Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS) we perceive current students of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) as our future colleagues. Accordingly, we encourage involvement of students at the activities of the SCS through Student Memberships and/or through Student Chapters.

A new Student Chapter at Delft University (Netherlands) has been recently approved by SCS. The officers will be Yilin Huang, Çağrı Tekinay and Michele Fumarola; dr. Mamadou Seck will be the mentor.

The current list of SCS Student Chapters includes 7 students chapters all around the world. Further information on SCS Student Chapters are available by clicking here. Those interested to establish an SCS Student Chapter can contact Prof. Tuncer Ören.

Liophant Simulation: students exchange, a story of successes

Liophant Simulation is a non-profit association born in order to be a trait-d'union among simulation developers and users; Liophant is devoted to promote and diffuse the simulation techniques and methodologies; the Association promotes sabbatical years, organization of International Conferences, organization of courses and stages in companies to apply the simulation to real problems.

To register yourself to the Liophant you need to submit the application form by mail/email or fax.

Among others Liophant Simulation strongly promotes students exchange all over the world. Further information on students exchange activities can be found by clicking here. The application form for exchange programs can be found on the Liophant Simulation website.
