New membership potentials

Paolo Proietti, one of the founders of MIMOS and currently the  Vice President  briefly presented activities. MIMOS has been created from an initiative of a group of Italian operators in the simulation field; they agreed on the opportunity to increase the knowledge on Modelling and Simulation in Italy by exchanging reciprocal experiences. The idea was to proceed with the creation of a National Association on Modelling and Simulation acting as a reference point for all Companies, Organisations and Users involved, in any way and form, in such a field.

MIMOS will apply for observer membership.

Miguel Mujica Mota from Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences will try to revive DBSS activities or establish a new society in that region.

Next EUROSIM presidency and congress

For the next presidency (2016-2019) and the 10th EUROSIM congress in 2019, two candidates PCSC (Poland) and CEA-SMSG (Spain) have applied. Both candidates presented some details. PCSC would organise the event in Krakow, CEA-SMSG in the province La Rioja, Logroño.

By voting board members chose the candidate from Spain. So the candidate for the next EUROSIM president is Emilio Jimenez Macías.
