M&SNet, OC-MISS, and International Synergistic Opportunities

JSMARTS Vision Workshop

Director Material Acquisition and Support Program (DMASP)Ottawa, ON, June 16-17, 2004

M&SNet: McLeod Modeling & Simulation Network (SCS)

http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~oren/SCS_MSNet/MSNet-index.htm

Aims: • Established in 2003 by the Society for Modeling and Simulation International• The M&SNet is a consortium of co-operating independent organizations

active in several aspects of M&S (modeling and simulation) domain: professionalism, research, education, and knowledge dissemination

• Aims to provide an organizational structure that will serve to integrate and enrich, within its organizations, M&S activities throughout the world.

• A framework to interact, share expertise, and work on problems of common interest in M&S.

• Mission is to foster:• professionalism in modeling and simulation, • advancing the art and science of M&S, • applying M&S in all domains where it is applicable, and • disseminating M&S-related knowledge.


M&SNet: M&SNet ActivitiesUs

1. We can benefit from the international potential of the

M&SNet to solve our problems

2. We can contribute to the international activities of M&SNet

and benefit from this contribution

M&SNet Workshop – Power of SynergyJuly 24-25, 2004, San Jose, CA (Just before the SCSC 2004)

Four types of participations are foreseen: 1. Presentations by representatives of M&SNet member organizations to

highlight the types of cooperation possibilities. 2. Presentations by members of M&SNet member organizations to highlight the

possible research topics they would like to initiate and/or join forces with other M&SNet member organizations.

In addition, presentations will be invited from: 3. Representatives of organizations who may want to consider joining M&SNet. 4. Representatives of organizations who would like to observe the potential of

M&SNet and/or announce challenging Modeling and Simulation project funding possibilities.


Professional Ethics:

All member organizations of M&SNet endorse the Code of Professional Ethics for Simulationists (adopted by the SCS).

SCS (The Society for Modeling and Simulation International)http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~oren/SCS_OC-MISS/index.htm

• OC-MISS is a Center of MISS.• OC-MISS is a member organization of M&SNet.

• As a member organization of M&SNet and as a Center of MISS, OC-MISS endorses the Code of Professional Ethics for Simulationists.

* Jointly at the University of Ottawa and Carleton University


• The Ottawa Center of the MISS network (OC-MISS) is committed to promoting the modeling and simulation discipline within Ottawa's National Capital Region.

Mission of OC-MISS:


More specifically, the goals are as follows:

• To promote widespread and successful use of modeling and simulation in the National Capital Region in such areas as: education, business, engineering, science, social systems/governance (including international relations, conflict management, peace support/assurance operations), and several aspects of defense requirements. • To stimulate the development of modeling and simulation companies in Ottawa contributing to the solution of national and international problems. • To enhance the educational opportunities in modeling and simulation in the National Capital Region including graduate theses work, academic courses, and professional training and seminars. • To contribute to the advancement of the state-of-the-art of modeling and simulation methodology, technology, and tools. • To contribute to the development of modeling and simulation as a professional discipline.
