2019 Winter Simulation Conference
Conference Theme: Simulation for Risk Management
General Chair: Young-Jun Son Program Chair: Peter Haas
When: December 8-11, 2019
Where: Gaylord National Resort & Conference Center, National Harbor, Maryland
http://www.wintersim.org
WSC 2019 will focus on the use of simulation to address a wide range of individual and societal risks.
From its very beginnings over 70 years ago, simulation has been a powerful tool for assessing potential risks and guiding us in making decisions under uncertainty. The 2019 conference seeks to highlight the latest simulation technologies for more accurately anticipating risks and for making more robust decisions in the face of uncertainty, ambiguity, and variability. These include methods for robust and accurate simulation modeling, analysis, and optimization. We also invite papers describing applications of simulation to risk management in a broad variety of domains, including healthcare, disaster response, power grids, construction, transportation, finance, cybersecurity, and more.
