10th Communications and Networking Simulation Symposium (CNS 2007)

As part of

Spring Simulation Multiconference 2007 (SpringSim 2007)

Sponsored by:

The Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS)

March 26-28, 2007

Norfolk, Virginia, USA

Communications and networking embody the heart and the nerve system of the information technology - a technology that is profoundly affecting our daily lives. Experts, researchers, managers, and entrepreneurs in this dynamic field often encounter challenges that lead to innovative basic as well as applied research and developments. You are invited to submit full papers reporting original work to a forum where experts from industry and academia meet and exchange ideas on the topics. This international forum provides a bridge between the communications industry and academic research laboratories.
