Simulation in Environment, Ecology, Biology and Medicine
The main goal is to enhance the trans-disciplinarity and to facilitate contacts and dialogs between computer scientists and specialists of Environmental Sciences. Since 10 years the modelling process took benefits from recent (and less recent) techniques of computer science : Object-Oriented Languages, Discrete Event Simulation, Concepts of Agent and Actor, Fuzzy Logic, UML, model - GIS interface, Web-based simulation, environment management, predictive models of forest growth, fishing, climate and other biological processes. Papers dealing with ecological modelling (in a wider sense) are welcome in the areas of: Applications: Environment managing, Waste managing, Ecosystem dynamics (terrestrial and oceanographic ecology) Population dynamics (diseases & epidemics, changes in biodiversity, genome, predator-prey relationships, fishing...), Population behaviour, Individual behaviour, involving methodologies such as: Artificial Intelligence, Distributed Interactive Simulation, High-Performance Computing, Languages, Modelling Techniques, Simulation Methodologies & Tools, Synthetic Environment, Virtual Reality, Petri nets, DEVS and Bond Graphs. Modelling and simulation have an important role in structuring biological, medical and ecological systems. The intrinsic complexity and non-linearity of these types of systems need continuous and discrete simulation methodology, soft computing methodology in order to handle the different degrees of uncertainty, as well as virtual reality methodology describing the time and space dependent complexity.

Cosmological Simulation
Detailed computer simulations are a powerful tool to study one of the biggest challenges for theoretical cosmology: How did the galaxies we see in the universe today form out of the small fluctuations in matter density that were present in the primordial universe? Having carried out the largest cosmological simulations ever, scientists in astrophysics are able to follow the hierarchical galaxy formation process with unprecedented accuracy and detail, allowing new theoretical insights into dark matter dynamics, and novel tests of the cold dark matter theory for galaxy formation. Simulations in this area, at present can be categorized under: The Millenium Simulation, Galaxy Formations Simulation, First Objects, Mock Catalogues, Dark Matter Halos, Intergalactic Medium, Semi-Analytical Modelling and Hubble Volume Simulation, Star Formation
