NOTE: This conference has moved from the Simulation
Multiconference (SMC) in April to the Western Multiconference for
Computer Simulation (WMC) in January.
Call for Papers
This annual conference sponsored by the
Society for Computer Simulation International is organized to
bring professionals within the nuclear simulation field together with other
peers, contractors, vendors, suppliers, standards committee members, and
regulators. Information is exchanged through the formal presentation of
professional papers, participation in panel discussions, and industrial users
group meetings that focus on the special needs within the nuclear simulation
community. Plant process computer systems are discussed in a special session
dedicated to soft panel graphics simulations and integration of plant data.
Professional paper presentations are provided on Monday, January 12, 1998, and
Tuesday, January 13, 1998. Vendor booth displays are also available for
observation and hands-on demonstration opportunities of the latest technologies
in software and equipment.
The Utility Simulator Users Group (USUG) meeting is conducted on
Wednesday, January 14, 1998.
The Southeastern States Nuclear Training Association (SSNTA) meeting is
conducted on Thursday, January 15, 1998.
