SIMULATION BASED BUSINESS RESEARCH
A conference track on ECMS 2012 - 26th European Conference on Modelling
and Simulation
May 29th -- June 1st, 2012
in Koblenz, Germany
http://www.scs-europe.net/conf/ecms2012
Track Chairs: Matthias Meyer and Iris Lorscheid, Hamburg University of
Technology
Submission of full papers until February 16th, 2012
The early 1970 saw some first modeling and simulation attempts at
simulating decision making and organizational behavior such as the
famous Garbage Can model. Forty years later it is the time to review the
current state of the art simulation-based business and management research.
This new track offers researchers an opportunity to submit papers in a
wide variety of application areas of business and management research
using simulation approaches.
We are seeking innovative and high-quality contributions which show how
simulation methods can be used to address problems in business and
management research.
Of particular interest are contributions which relate their simulations
with empirical research methods, e.g. laboratory experiments, field
studies or survey research, in one or several steps of the research
process. Typical contributions will use computational methods such as
multi-agent simulation, Monte Carlo simulation, system dynamics or
genetic algorithms, but other simulation and computational approaches
are welcome too.
Possible fields of application are from fields such as (but are not
limited to):
- Accounting and Management Control
- Risk Management and Planning
- Marketing
- Logistics and Supply Chain Management
- Organization Theory
- Technology and Innovation Management
- Knowledge Management
- Strategy
- Operations Research
- Information and Communication Technology
- International Management
- etc
The European Conference on Modelling and Simulation (ECMS) is the
international conference dedicated to help define the state of the art
in the field. For several years, ECMS has proven to be an outstanding
forum for researchers and practitioners from different fields involved
in creating, defining and building innovative simulation systems,
simulation and modelling tools and techniques, and novel applications
for modelling and simulation.
