FUTURE OF SIMULATION TRACK DESCRIPTION
The future of simulation track welcome speakers active of the fields related with simulation.
The goal of this track is to think, imagine, trace and describe our dynamic field in terms of the discipline for the next 50 years.
We look forward leading scholars and practitioners doing cutting edge research in techniques, tools, methods and technologies of the application and use of discrete-event simulation, agent-based modelling, systems dynamics and hybrids of these approaches.
This special track was developed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Winter Simulation Conference and is focused on the topics our discipline will have to deal during the next years.
