Aim of ISC'2024

The aim of the 22nd annual Industrial Simulation Conference (ISC'2024), the premier annual industrial simulation conference in
Europe, is to give a complete overview of this year's industrial simulation related research and to provide an annual status
report on present day industrial simulation research within the European Community and the rest of the world in line with
European industrial research projects.

With the integration of artificial intelligence, agents and other modelling techniques, simulation has become an effective
and appropriate decision support tool in industry. The exchange of techniques and ideas among universities and industry,
which support the integration of simulation in the everyday workplace, is the basic premise at the heart of ISC'2024 conference.


All submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the International Program Committee. Accepted papers will be
published in the conference Proceedings (both print and electronic format), that will be copyrighted and widely disseminated.
EUROSIS proceedings are indexed by ISI, IET, SCOPUS and the Royal Belgian Library.

INVITED SPEAKERS

The Conference will feature a number of keynote and invited speakers (more info to follow)

Keynote/Invited Speaker proposals can be submitted by January 15, 2024
