AIM OF ESM‘2013
The ESM‘2013 (The 27th annual European Simulation and Modelling Conference) is the original international European conference concerned with state of the art technology in modelling and simulation. ESM‘2013 aims to provide an overview of academic research in the field of computer simulation. A number of major tracks of simulation research are presented next to specific workshops, which capture the art and science of present-day simulation research.
Selected papers will appear in journals especially tailored to EUROSIS.
All submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the International Program Committee. Accepted papers will be published in the conference Proceedings (both print and electronic format), that will be copyrighted and widely disseminated. All talks and tutorials, must be accompanied by a paper of between three to eight Proceedings pages.
Keynote Speaker
Professor Michael Pidd, Lancaster University, Lancaster, United Kingdom Invited Speakers

TUTORIALS
Tutorials can be proposed in the following three categories:
T1- Introductory tutorials
T2- State of the Art Tutorials
T3- Software and Modelware Tutorials
Tutorial proposals should be emailed to [email protected] before MAY 25TH.
POSTER SESSION
The poster session only features work in progress. Next to the actual poster presentation, these submissions also feature as short papers in the Proceedings.
STUDENTS SESSION
This session is for students who want to present their work in progress or part of their doctoral thesis as a paper. Student papers are denoted by the fact that only the name of the student appears on the paper as an author. They are published as short papers in the Proceedings.
DIVERSE ACTIVITIES
For demonstrations or video sessions, please contact EUROSIS.
Special session will be set up for vendor presentations in co- ordination with the scientific program. User Group meetings for simulation languages and tools can be organised the day before the conference. If you would like to arrange a meeting, please contact the Conference Chairs. We will be happy to provide a meeting room and other necessary equipment.
Partners for projects session(s) will be organised by EUROSIS to give potential project teams or individuals the opportunity to present their research in order to link up with fellow researchers for future research projects. Those wishing to participate in this session need to send a proposal to EUROSIS.
A EUROSIS TC Meeting and an EU Project update meeting
EXHIBITION
A special exhibition will be held during the conference focused on industrial applications. For more information please contact EUROSIS for further details. Email: [email protected]
