*** The Symposium ***
The 2020 IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Distributed Simulation
and Real Time Applications (DS-RT 2020) promises to be a grand affair
and will take place in Prague, Czech Republic. DS-RT 2020
serves as a platform for simulationists from academia, industry and
research labs for presenting recent research results in Distributed
Simulation and Real Time Applications.
DS-RT 2020 targets the growing overlap between large distributed
simulations and real time applications, such as collaborative virtual
environments, pervasive and ubiquitous application scenarios, motor-,
controller-, sensor- and actuator systems.
The conference features prominent invited speakers as well as papers
by top researchers in the field. DS-RT 2020 will include contributed
technical papers, invited papers, and panel discussions. The
proceedings will be published by IEEE-CS press.
*** Call for Papers ***
DS-RT provides an international forum for the discussion and
presentation of original ideas, recent results and achievements by
researchers, research students, and systems developers on issues and
challenges related to distributed simulation and real time
applications. Authors are encouraged to submit both theoretical and
practical results of significance. Demonstration of new
tools/applications is very encouraged.
The scope of the symposium includes, but is not limited to:
- Paradigms, Methodology and Software Architectures for Large Scale
Distributed and Real-Time Simulations (e.g., Parallel and Distributed
Simulation, Multi-Agent Based Distributed Simulation, HLA/RTI, Web,
Grid and cloud based Simulation, hardware-software co-design for
extreme scale simulations)

Real-time Systems and Concurrent Systems with hard and soft Real-Time
Constraints
- Advanced modelling techniques (reuse of models, new modelling
languages, agent-based M&S, and spatial M&S)
