PowerplantSim 2015 - 2015 Powerplant Simulation Conference (PowerplantSim'15)

The 2015 Power Plant Simulation Conference (PowerPlantSim’15) is an annual conference sponsored by The Society for Modeling and Simulation International. This conference focuses on the special needs of the nuclear and fossil power plant simulation community and includes presentations by technology and industry leaders, technical sessions, panel and roundtable discussions, and vendor exhibits. The primary goal of the conference is to promote open exchange of simulator related information between all attendees.
Who should attend?
All individuals associated with the maintenance, management, regulation, or application of nuclear and fossil power plant simulators are encouraged to participate by submitting original presentations.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Next Generation Simulators
Post Fukushima Extended Blackout Modeling
Severe Accident Simulation
Simulator Knowledge Retention
Advanced Fuel Pool Modeling
Fleet Coordination ? Does it Work?
