--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The International Conference on Simulation, Modeling, and
Programming for Autonomous Robots (SIMPAR) has the objective
to bring together researchers from academia and industry to
identify and solve the key issues necessary to ease the development
of robot software and boost a smooth shifting of results from
simulated to real applications.

Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:

      * 3D robot simulation
      * reliability, scalability and validation of robot simulation
      * simulated sensors and actuators
      * offline simulation of robot design
      * online simulation with real-time constraints
      * simulation with software/hardware-in-the-loop
      * middleware for robotics
      * modeling framework for robots and environments
      * testing and validation of robot control software
      * standardization for robotic services
      * communication infrastructures in distributed robotics
      * interaction between sensor networks and robots
      * human robot interaction
      * multirobot
