Message from the Convenor

Jawahar Bhalla - SimTecT 2008 Convenor

Our theme “Simulation – Maximising Organisational Benefits” focuses on the opportunities that simulation provides to deliver results in alignment with organisational objectives – such as an integrated analysis and communication tool suite for all business units, reducing the cost of ownership through simulation, or improving the quality of training and learning. It encompasses the cost-effective use of simulation for experimentation and analysis, concept and capability development, system design refinement and validation, process and systems modelling, and in the training of users. This applies to customers and suppliers alike, in all sectors — including defence, aerospace, mining, construction, manufacturing, transport, homeland security, education and business sectors .

The SimTecT 2008 Conference and Exhibition builds on the success of the previous twelve SimTecTs to provide an opportunity for the simulation community to discover the latest research and product advances, and to discuss applications with developers and users.

The Organising Committee and I look forward to seeing you in Melbourne on 12th May 2008.
