Conference Announcement - For Immediate Release 1989 WINTER SIMULATION CONFERENCE Preliminary programs are available for the 1989 Winter Simulation Conference, which will be held on December 4 - 6, 1989 at the Capital Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C. A copy of the WSC '89 Preliminary Program, which includes a list of speakers and papers as well as registration and hotel information, can be obtained by contacting Publicity Chair Barry L. Nelson, Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210; (614) 292-0610; nelson-b@eng.ohio-state.edu. Discrete-event simulation, which is the focus of the conference, is the most widely used tool for the design and analysis of systems subject to uncertainty, such as manufacturing, transportation, distribution, computer, communication, military and health care systems. WSC '89 will feature introductory and advanced tutorials on simulation modeling and analysis, software tutorials describing new products and features, and research sessions on analysis methodology, modeling methodology, simulation in manufacturing, and general simulation applications. Each tutorial and research session is supported by a paper published in the conference proceedings, which is available during conference registration. The software tutorials are backed up by an extensive vendor exhibits area for demonstrations and further discussion. The keynote address will be given by A. Alan B. Pritsker, Chairman of the Board of Pritsker Corporation, and is entitled ``Why Simulation Works.'' Other conference events include a pre-conference Ph.D. student colloquium and a post-conference tour of the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Advanced Manufacturing Research Facility. ------------------------------ Return-Path: Date: Tue, 22 Aug 89 22:38:41 edt From: popeye!srcnance@vtodie.cs.vt.edu To: vtodie!simulation@bikini.cis.ufl.edu Subject: Request from Bill Harris on Systems Dynamics Update I would join Bill Harris' interest in having an update on the view (or views) of systems dynamics. From some recent papers (one by Burns in Management Science on the use of digraphs for analysis of influence relationships), I had presumed that interest was on the upsurge. Is that true?

Birdsall) To: simulation@bikini.cis.ufl.edu Hello, I am mailing this for a friend. He is interested in any sort of simulation regarding rockets. I tried to pin him down on some specifics and he said, "Basically any simulation involving missile guidance, trajectories, materials (missile structure I would think), engines, stresses...". I have no idea if any simulations like this exist, and I thought that you would be the one to ask. In one of your recent digests there was an announcement for the EMC conference, those subjects listed there (pertaining to rockets), might interest my friend to. Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, John Schubert [[EDITOR: You might want to have your friend check out the book "Modelling with Projectiles" by Derek Hart and Tony Croft, Halsted Press (a subsidiary of John Wiley/NY), 1988 -PAF]] mail to birdsall@janus.berkeley.edu ------------------------------ END OF SIMULATION DIGEST ************************
