    The Winter Simulation Conference 2023 (WSC23) will be held at the San Antonio Rivercenter, in San Antonio, Texas (USA) from December 10-13, 2023. The conference theme is "Simulation for Resilient Systems".

     

    The Military and National Security Applications Track is interested in papers that describe the application of modeling and simulation theory, techniques, tools and technologies to challenges in the military and national security domain. Example application areas include: battle management command and control, air and missile defense, campaign analysis, weapon-target pairing, multi-domain operations, sustainment operations, operational testing and evaluation, wargaming and assessments, CBRNE defense, critical infrastructure analysis, homeland defense and domestic civil support operations, cybersecurity, information operations, electronic warfare, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, medical and healthcare operations, manpower and personnel, readiness and training, cost, risk and decision analysis, special operations, etc.

     

    Topics of special interest include, but are not limited to, challenges and innovations for representation and implementation of command, control and communications, swarm intelligence, cybersecurity operations, cyber threat intelligence, social media analytics, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, human-machine teaming, future platforms and weapons prototyping, synthetic environments, multi-sensor fusion, complex behaviors of semi-automated forces, electronic warfare, expeditionary medical operations, automatic scenario planning and experimentation, and multi-resolution models. Papers investigating an innovative use of edge/fog/cloud technologies, gaming technology, mixed reality technology, artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, big data technologies, distributed computing technology, and networking technology for military and national security applications are also welcome!

     

    Authors of Contributed Papers are required to electronically submit a proceedings paper that conforms to the WSC23 standards by April 7, 2023. Note that it is WSC23 policy that no contributed paper presentation will be made without a corresponding paper in the proceedings, and all participants in the conference must register and pay the registration fee. For more details about WSC23, please refer to https://meetings.informs.org/wordpress/wsc2023/ or http://www.wintersim.org

     

    Thank you and looking forward to receiving your Contributed Paper submissions!

     

    Best regards,
