Call for participation Workshop on: 11 Sep 2012
Application deadline: 1 May 2012
*CALL FOR PARTICIPATION - ESSA@work 2012*
--------------------------------------------------------------------
/*Are you currently working on a social simulation project
AND
want to discuss your work-in-progress?*/
Then you might want to go to the ESSA@work workshop during the ESSA 2012
conference. ESSA@work invites all modellers (PhD students, Post-docs,
assistant/associate/full professors) to participate.
ESSA@work is a workshop where any modeller can receive and give support
on their and others' simulation-work-in-progress. During one day, a
group of participants (max. 12) and experts will discuss the simulation
project of each participant (presentation phase) and form small parallel
discussion groups based on any desired topic (discussion phase). The
combination of involved people, cutting edge research and a good
constructive atmosphere makes the meetings valuable for any participant.
This type of workshop has proven its value to many modellers already, so
join in and see how it can work for you? The ability to talk with peers
and experts during the development of your simulation is very valuable.
The covered topics is very diverse. It can address questions from any
stage of simulation development, for instance:
- formalisation
- validation & verification
- gather empirical data
- simulation experiments
- tools (MAS/ABM toolkits, statistical tools, etc)
- programming
- ...etc.
The day starts with the 'presentation phase' , where every participant
will give a presentation about their work and their current questions
(15 mins) followed by a plenary discussion. After lunch, we continue
with the 'discussion phase'. Here, small groups are formed and 3
parallel theme-discussions will then take place. At the end of the day,
every participant should not only go home with input for their own work,
but also feel very stimulated and motivated after an eventful day.
