HELD: JUNE 27-29, 1999 -- SILVER FALLS, OREGON

EMERGING TECHNOLOGY
Software companies are faced with rapid change, heightened global competition, and an increasing need for improvements to cycle time, cost, and quality. Software Process Simulation is an emerging technology that can help cope effectively with these challenges. Software Process Simulation is being applied to the management of software projects, product life cycles, and organizations, in areas such as planning, tracking, staffing policies, resource allocation, analysis of feedback loops, as well as the evaluation of process changes.

PRESENTING THE LATEST ADVANCES
The Software Process Simulation Modeling (ProSim '99) workshop will bring both researchers and practitioners together in order to jointly explore the benefits of, and issues involved in, Software Process Simulation. The workshop is a forum for presenting the latest advances in this field, promoting the open interchange of ideas, and exploring potentials for collaborative work.

FOCUS ON APPLICATION
ProSim ‘99 will focus on the application of Software Process Simulation research to real-world problems, as well as advances which will provide the foundation for Software Process Simulation Modeling in the future. Technical presentations will address a variety of approaches including the application of System Dynamics and Discrete Event Simulation models to support the management of software development.

WORKSHOP SETTING FACILITATES INTERACTION
ProSim ‘99 will be held at the Silver Falls Conference Center. The Conference Center is a rustic facility designed for comfort and tranquility in the natural setting of Silver Falls State Park. The Center is situated in a secluded meadow, surrounded by lush forests and a seven-mile hiking trail providing access to ten spectacular waterfalls in the Silver Creek Canyon. Participants have rooms in one of the Center’s lodges or cabins to help facilitate significant interaction.
