MODSIM World 2013 Starts Next Week

MODSIM World 2013, a multi-disciplinary international Modeling and Simulation Conference and Exposition, begins on April 30th in Hampton Roads, Virginia. MODSIM World is a multi-disciplinary conference for the exchange of modeling and simulation knowledge, research and technology across industry, government and academia.

Areas of focus at the conference and exposition include:

• Defense
• Healthcare/Medicine
• Engineering & Applied Science
• Information Assurance and Cyber Warfare
• Cross-Cutting Applications in Modeling and Simulation
• Education/Workforce Development
• Transportation, and Manufacturing.

The event includes a tour of the NASA Langley Research Center, NASA's oldest field center. Langley Research Center primarily focuses on aeronautical research and is responsible for a number of technology breakthroughs, including the development of the Lunar Landing Facility, that enabled NASA to simulate the effects of lunar gravity.

Conference Highlights Include:

• Education and Workforce Development Track: “Teaching STEM through Modeling, Simulations and Games in Education”.
• Defense Track: "Senior Leaders Perspective on Modeling and Simulation".
• Healthcare and Medicine Track: “An Examination of the use of Simulation for Improving Healthcare Logistics, Learning, Knowledge, and Skills”.
• Homeland Security and Cyber Analytics Track: “Modeling, Simulation and Risk Analysis”.
• Manufacturing, Transportation and Logistics Track: “Simulation-Based Adaptive Decision Support in a Shipyard Environment”.
