Aim of ISC'2021
The aim of the 19th annual Industrial Simulation Conference (ISC'2021), the premier annual industrial simulation conference in Europe, is to give a complete overview of this year's
industrial simulation related research and to provide an annual status report on present day industrial simulation research within the European Community and the rest of the world
in line with European industrial research projects.
With the integration of artificial intelligence, agents and other modelling techniques, simulation has become an effective and appropriate decision support tool in industry. The
exchange of techniques and ideas among universities and industry, which support the integration of simulation in the everyday workplace, is the basic premise at the heart of
ISC'2021 conference.
The ISC'2021 Conference will cover the following tracks
- Discrete Event Simulation Methodology, Languages and Tools
- Artificial Intelligence, IOT AND VR Graphics Applied to Industry
- Complex Systems Modelling
- Simulation in Robotics
- Simulation in Engineering
- Simulation in Collaborative Engineering
- Simulation in Manufacturing
- Simulation in Logistics and Traffic
- Datamining Business Processes, Geosimulation AND Big Data
- Simulation in Economics and Business
- Simulation in Economic and Risk Management
- Simulation in Automotive Systems
- Simulation in the Power industry
- VR/AR Simulations in Education
- Information Security, Privacy and Applications
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. EUROSIS proceedings are indexed by ISI, IET and SCOPUS. Selected papers are published in several journals such as the International Journal of Computer Aided Engineering and Technology.
