Old Dominion University's 2012 Capstone Conference Opens Call For Papers

The Department of Modeling, Simulation and Visualization Engineering (MSVE) and the Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC) will host the annual Modeling, Simulation & Visualization Student Capstone Conference on Thursday, April 19, 2012.

The Capstone Conference features students in Modeling and Simulation (M&S) undergraduate & graduate degree programs and fields from many colleges or universities. Students present their research to an audience of fellow students, faculty, judges, and other distinguished guests. For the students, these presentations afford them the opportunity to impart their innovative research to members of the M&S community from academic, industry, and government backgrounds.

A Call for Paper Submissions is currently open until March 9th, 2012. The MS&V Student Capstone Conference offers seven presentation tracks this year. The best paper and the best presentation in each track will receive awards.

This year's keynote speaker will be Dr. Richard Satava, MD, FACS, a Professor of Surgery at the University of Washington Medical Center, and Senior Science Advisor at the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command in Ft. Detrick, MD.
