East Midlands Simulation Special Interest Group


The East Midlands Special Interest Group organises some get togethers for those that are interested or working in simulation in the East Midlands (Nottingham, Loughborough, Leicester) with the aim to meet at least once per term.

The topics of interest to be presented and discussed at the meetings are of a broad range and include things like:
The meetings are open to anyone who is interested. If you are interested to attend one of the meetings please email the organising person directly. If you want to stay informed about activities of the group please email Peer-Olaf Siebers and you will be added to the mailing list. Only registered members can post to the mailing list (emssig@cs.nott.ac.uk).
