SESDE 2025 - International Workshop on Simulation for Energy, Sustainable Development & Environment!

The 13th International Conference on Simulation for Energy, Sustainable Development & Environment (SESDE 2025)

(https://www.msc-les.org/sesde2025/)

The International Workshop on Simulation for Energy, Sustainable Development & Environment is focusing on using M&S in applications related to Energy, Sustainability and Environmental Issues. Scientists and Subject Matter Experts in these sectors are invited to present innovative papers. The application of M&S to this sector represents a major opportunity considering the nature of the complex systems related to these issues that need to be studied and analyzed.

Awards

"Gianni Cantice Research Award for Gifted Simulation Students" and the “Norbert Giambiasi Award for Conceptual Modeling Excellence” will be announced during the I3M 2025 Gala Dinner and attributed to the best simulation student applicants. The Gianni Cantice Award is entitled to Col.Cantice as recognition for his long activity in Simulation; the Gianni Cantice Award Winner will receive the Award Certificate and a financial contribution (a free registration for the next I3M conference).
The Norbert Giambiasi Award is entitled to Prof. Norbert Giambiasi as recognition for very highly qualified contribution in Conceptual Modeling and DEVS within the International Simulation Community. The Norbert Giambiasi Award Certificate Board selects the paper among best Conceptual Modeling contributions to the I3M Conference. If you have a student as co-author in your HMS paper the student could be considered for the award.


Conference Aim

SESDE 2025 aims to advance the use of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) in addressing global challenges in energy, sustainability, and environmental issues. The conference fosters collaboration among researchers and experts to develop innovative solutions for sustainable development and efficient energy systems.
