2018 Winter Simulation Innovation Workshop (SIW)

The Simulation Interoperability Standards Organization (SISO) invites you to participate in the 2018 Winter Simulation Innovation Workshop (SIW) at the Florida Hotel and Conference Center in Orlando, Florida, January 21 - 26, 2018.

This theme of the Winter 2018 SIW is: Simulation – Enabling Real-World Innovation.

From jet aircraft landing on water, to rocket boosters returning to the launch pad, to satellites rendezvousing with asteroids and comets, over the last several years, we have seen dramatic results from innovation in the real-world – some planned, some driven by circumstances. Innovation almost always starts with the question “I wonder if I/we can do that?”; but to answer that question requires testing out that idea before doing it in real life. The 2018 SIW will explore how simulation (and innovation in simulations themselves and the standards that support their implementation) has, does, and will enable innovation in the real world.
