Track Description

Nowadays continuous incidents, terrorist threats, catastrophic events have strongly underlined the need to plan and organize better responses to emergency situations. 

The track offers the possibility to present scientific results and critical issues concerning emergency responses procedures using Modeling and Simulation. Topics of interest include aspects such as:

· Simulation and testing of emergency scenarios;

· Personnel training trough Simulation;

· Modeling & Simulation of human crowd behavior;

· Modeling & Simulation of critical incidents;

· Synthetic and Virtual Environments for emergency situations;

· Medical emergency Simulation;

· Police, fire emergency Simulation;

· Emergency response Simulation;

· Simulation games for incidents and threats management;

· Modeling & Simulation of terrorist attacks;

· Modeling & Simulation of natural disasters;

· Emergency management systems;

· Emergency response Simulation in supply chain and logistic networks.

 

Nevertheless different topics concerning Emergency Simulation are welcome. Authors are kindly invited to include in their papers and presentations all the research works, case studies and application both theoretical and applied.

 

 

Authors' Guidelines

Submission Procedures: For papers please submit a summary of 500 words max in electronics form to the SCS Conference Proceedings Management System web site for review by the program committee. The cover page should include the name of author(s), their affiliation including SCS membership; mailing address as well as the phone number, fax number, and e-mail address of the primary contact author. All the submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the International Program Committee, and they will be judged with respect to their quality, originality, and relevance. All the accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings after the advance registration of at least one of the authors.
