Modelling (the schematic description of systems and devices) and simulation (the use of models to investigate or optimize processes, without necessarily experimenting on the real system) are usable in all technical or non technical activities. The subjects treated will include general methods of modelling and simulation as well as their applications in the following fields: materials, mechanics and civil engineering, thermoanalysis, energetics, geology and resources, biology. medecine and pharmacy, education. sociology. economy, transports, etc. The conference and exhibition do not only consist of specialized and elaborate developments but also of initiating and synthetizing conferences. On that account, they appeal to both specialists in modelling and simulation and those who want to learn these techniques. Persons and Companies willing to submit a communica’tion. to exhibit software products or material, or simply to attend the Conference and Exhibition will receive all necessary documents when writing to A.M.S.E. 16 Avenue de Grande Blanche 69 160 Tassin-la-demi-Lune France
