Abstract

The Winter Simulation Conference (WSC) is traditionally known as the most important annual conference serving the discrete event simulation community. The purpose of this panel session is to generate discussion about the nature of WSC in the future and about its future role in the overall simulation community. There are many reasons to do this. It is important to the communities currently served by WSC, critical to the conference itself, and in a broad sense significant to the future of simulation itself. In keeping with the track theme of discussing the future of simulation, it makes sense to discuss the future of the most important discrete-event simulation event.
