Journal Opportunities
DHSS2014 had several different journal special issues based on the best papers submitted to the conference.
Currently, the Organization Committee is working in order to provide to DHSS 2015 attendees many and good journal publication opportunities.

Conference Aim
DHSS 2015 is a workshop focusing on the advances and potential of using M&S within this frame work will bring experts together for the purpose of presenting and discussing all type of innovation related to the use of Modeling & Simulation in Defense and Homeland Security applications. DHSS will focus on new concepts, methods, techniques and tools for advancing in modeling & simulation sector. The International Program Committee will accept two types of camera-ready papers: extended paper (10 pages, 2 columns); regular paper (6 pages, 2 columns). Please refer to the online authors instruction section.
