CALL FOR PAPERS
 
SYMPOSIUM ON AUTOMATED MODELING FOR DESIGN
 
THE 1993 ASME WAM 
NOVEMBER 28 - DECEMBER 3, 1993 
NEW ORLEANS
 
The Modeling and Identification Technical Panel of the Dynamic Systems
and Control Division of ASME is sponsoring a symposium to address the
current issues in developing automated modeling environments for
design.  The symposium will be held at the 1993 ASME Winter Annual
Meeting.
 
Topics: The topics to be addressed may include: general modeling,
analysis and simulation methodologies (both the synthesis and the
selection problem) for creating models for What If? design studies.
Methods for computing relevant performance metrics and integrating
these metrics with design specifications (e.g., with QFD
technologies).  Techniques for model validation/verification; model
reduction and augmentation strategies; and definitions of model
quality.
 
Objectives: The objectives of the symposium include: providing a forum
for researchers from the physical system modeling, automated modeling
and qualitative reasoning, design, design theory and methodology, and
CAE (simulation) communities to discuss their ideas and to compare
their goals, strategies, vocabulary etc.  To encourage participants-to
identify important research issues and engineering hurdles.  To
introduce new researcher to the field.
 
If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Prof. Jeff
Stein at the address or phone numbers given below.
 
Papers accepted for publication are also eligible for publication in
the Journal of Dynamic Systems Measurement and Control.  Those wishing
to select this option should indicate so in a cover letter submitted
with their manuscript.  Because the review process for the Journal
takes longer than the review for the symposium, manuscripts will be
sent on to the Journal office at the conclusion of the symposium
review process along with the reviews obtained from the symposium
review.
 
Abstract (<300 Words) due March 8, 1993.

Manuscripts (4 copies) due May 1, 1993.
Notification of Manuscript Acceptability June 15, 1993.
