Welcome to the 19th Simulation and Visualization Conference at the Virtual Development and Training Centre
of the IFF in Magdeburg!
Since 1990, the annual conference "Simulation and Visualization" (SimVis) serves as an event to bring experts,
practitioners and vendors working in the fields of Simulation and Visualization together. In addition to present
new results in these two disciplines, SimVis also fosters an integrated view on the simulation and
visualization cycle.
SimVis 2008, the 19th conference, is going to continue this way. In addition, SimVis 2008 is focusing on the
particular fields of
Flow Simulation and Flow Visualization
We especially encourage experts in these fields to submit their work, but remain open to all other areas
of Simulation and (Scientific and Information) Visualization as well.
SimVis 2008 encourages the submission of the following kinds of papers:
- technical papers
- application papers
- survey papers, showing the state-of-the-art of certain areas in Simulation and Visualization.
All kinds of papers are considered as peer-reviewed long papers.
Invited Talks will be given by:
-
Jarke van Wijk, TU Eindhoven
Variety in Visualization
Visualization has become a large field, with a large variety in
the addressed problems, the approaches used, and the solutions
offered. This variety will be illustrated with work from the
visualization group of TU Eindhoven. Examples are shown of
scientific visualization (texture based flow visualization),
information visualization (tree and tree+graph visualization), and
visual analytics; with an emphasis on the differences between
these. Finally, an attempt is made to summarize the similarities
as well.

Plug and Simulate in James II
James II has been developed as a modeling and simulation framework that allows to easily integrate new functionality, e.g. modeling formalisms, simulators, partitioning algorithms, or specialized user interfaces, and combine those on-demand and even partly at run-time.
The benefits of this flexible design take effect in concrete applications as well as in developing new modeling and simulation methods. Being able to exchange modeling formalisms, e.g. process algebra or DEVS, might lead to a more effective modeling. The efficiency of simulation runs can be increased by combining different parallel and sequential simulators according to the model and the available infrastructure.
In addition, due to the re-use of common parts and the ease of extension, designing and evaluating new algorithms is facilitated.
