General information
SIMS is the Scandinavian Simulation Society with members from the five Nordic
countries Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Iceland. The SIMS history goes
back to 1959. SIMS practical matters are taken care of by the SIMS board
consisting of two representatives from each Nordic country. SIMS annual meeting
takes place at the annual SIMS conference or in connection to international
simulation conferences arranged in the Nordic countries.
The goals of SIMS
The Society exists to
-
further the science and practice of modeling and simulation in all application
areas
-
be a Scandinavian forum for information interchange among modeling and
simulation professionals and non-professionals in Denmark, Finland, Norway and
Sweden
-
be a channel for information exchange between the Scandinavian modeling and
simulation community and the international modeling and simulation communities.
The society pursues its goals by
-
arranging technical and scientific meetings and symposia
-
supporting lecturing and publication
-
collecting and disseminating information
-
maintaining contacts with national and international organizations with similar
purposes
