    *THE SYMPOSIUM*

    The 2023 IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications (DS-RT 2023) promises to be a grand affair and will take place in Singapore. DS-RT 2023 serves as a platform for simulationists from academia, industry and research labs to present recent research results in Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications.

    DS-RT 2023 targets the growing overlap between large distributed simulations and real time applications, such as metaverse, collaborative virtual environments, pervasive and ubiquitous application scenarios, actuator systems and the usage of artificial intelligence techniques in both simulation and real-time applications.

    The conference features prominent invited speakers as well as papers by top researchers in the field. DS-RT 2023 will include contributed technical papers, invited papers, and tutorials. The proceedings will be published by IEEE-CS press.

    *CALL FOR PAPERS*

    DS-RT provides an international forum for the discussion and presentation of original ideas, recent results and achievements by researchers, research students, and systems developers on issues and challenges related to distributed simulation and real time applications. Authors are encouraged to submit both theoretical and practical results of significance. Demonstration of new tools/applications is very encouraged.

    The scope of the symposium includes, but is not limited to:

    * Paradigms, Methodology and Software Architectures for Large Scale Distributed and Real-Time Simulations (e.g. Parallel and Distributed Simulation, Multi-Agent Based Distributed Simulation, HLA/RTI, Web, Grid and cloud based Simulation, hardware-software co-design for extreme scale simulations)
