Crowd modeling and simulation (M&S) has been used to support the analysis of the
behavior of crowds, in order to predict the impact of pedestrian movement and to test design …

It has been a decade since the Workshop on Grand Challenge for Modeling & Simulation
(M&S) was held at Dagstuhl in Germany (www. dagstuhl. de/02351). Grand challenges …

Medical device security is a growing concern for medical device manufacturers, healthcare
delivery organisations and regulators in the industry. Increasingly, researchers are …

Goal-directed reproducible experimentation with simulation models is still a significant
challenge. The underutilization of design of experiments, limited transparency in the …

It is widely accepted that lipid rafts promote receptor clustering and thereby facilitate
signaling transduction. The role of lipid rafts in inducing and promoting receptor …

The integration of workflows into modeling and simulation tools promises to provide easier
reproduction and provenance of simulation data and its generating process. We present the …

Develo** a model for simulation is an art and a science. The question is how this process
can be suitably supported. Integrating workflows into simulation systems promises user …

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations play an important role in materials design. However,
the effective use of the most widely used MD simulators require significant expertise of the …

In multi-agent-based simulation (MABS) the behavior of individual actors is modeled in
detail. The analysis and validation of these models is rated as difficult and requires support …

Simulation experiments involve various sub-tasks, eg, parameter optimization, simulation
execution, or output data analysis. Many algorithms can be applied to such tasks, but their …
