IV Edition of Epistemological Perspectives on Simulation, A
Cross-Disciplinary Workshop, June 23-25, 2010, Hamburg
http://www.tu-harburg.de/EPOS2010/

The fourth EPOS workshop, organized by Matthias Meyer and Klaus G. Troitzsch, on June 23-25, 2010, aims to continue the young tradition of EPOS workshops and their lively atmosphere. Like its predecessors the workshop wants to provide a forum for researchers from various disciplines, such as the social sciences, economics, computer science, engineering or the natural sciences, who are interested in discussing epistemological aspects of simulation across disciplinary boundaries. Philosophers are welcome, too.

Topics to be addressed in the workshop include, but are not restricted to issues such as the epistemology of simulation, credentials for model building, and standards for presenting and analyzing simulation results.

Following the tradition of most of the previous EPOS workshops, we intend to publish a selection of the accepted papers in a special issue of a journal after a further reviewing process (subject to discussion with respective journal editors).
