AIM OF ASTEC'2012
The aim of the 3rd annual Asian Simulation Technology Conference 2012 (ASTEC 2012) is to give a state of the art overview of industrial simulation related research and to provide an annual status report on present day simulation research within Asia and the rest of the world. The exchange of techniques and ideas among the different disciplines, universities and industry, which support the integration of simulation in the everyday workplace, is the basic premise at the heart of ASTEC-2012. Each year ASTEC will adapt its aim in response to the demands of research at that particular point in time and on the bequest of the organizing country's and university's research needs.
