The advent of multicore computers and the ever-increasing speed of network technologies hold significant potential for parallel and distributed simulation. In particular, the promising parallel and distributed discrete-event simulation techniques that have been developed in the last decades may find broad application. Furthermore, new concepts for parallel and distributed simulation may be developed.
The main aim of this track is to bring together researchers interested in the field of parallel and distributed simulation, and provide a forum for the presentation of novel results, applications, and an exchange of ideas. Even though there is a focus on parallel and distributed simulation techniques and applications, we welcome all high-quality papers on advanced simulation techniques and will consider them for publication.
