History of the winter simulation conference: Modern period (2008-2017)

چکیده
In this paper we review the history of the Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) during 2008–2017, a period characterized by financial stability, continued growth, and inroads into the new age of simulation. In particular, we trace the modernization of the Conference as well as its expansion outside of the United States for the first time.

This paper presents the history of the Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) for the time period covering 1983–1992. This was a healthy era of growth for WSC as conference attendance was strong, exhibits were added, proceedings became hardback, program tracks were added, the Ph.D. Colloquium was initiated, and the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of WSC was celebrated in 1992. This article discusses all o...

This paper discusses the history of the Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) during the period 1975–1982. This includes the collapse of the WSC in 1975, the rebirth of WSC in 1976, and the subsequent annual conferences and other significant WSC events for the period of 1976 through 1982. This was a period of great change for the WSC, with an emphasis on developing procedures to insure the long-te...
متن کاملProceedings of the 2008 Winter Simulation Conference
The Monte Carlo and discrete-event simulation code associated with the Simulation 101 pre-conference workshop (offered at the 2006, 2007, and 2008 Winter Simulation Conferences) is available in both C and R. This paper begins with general instructions for downloading, compiling, and executing the software. This is followed by detailed explanations of two programs that are representative of the ...
متن کاملTowards a Computational History of the ACL: 1980-2008
We develop a people-centered computational history of science that tracks authors over topics and apply it to the history of computational linguistics. We present four findings in this paper. First, we identify the topical subfields authors work on by assigning automatically generated topics to each paper in the ACL Anthology from 1980 to 2008. Next, we identify four distinct research epochs wh...
