Abstract: The research area “Virtual Manufacturing†can be defined as an integrated manufacturing environment which can enhance one or several levels of decision and control in manufacturing process. Several domains can be addressed: Product and Process Design, Process and Production Planning, Machine Tool, Robot and Manufacturing System. As automation technologies such as CAD/CAM have substantially shortened the time required to design products, Virtual Manufacturing will have a similar effect on the manufacturing phase thanks to the modelling, simulation and optimisation of the product and the processes involved in its fabrication.

The INFORMS Simulation Society is organized and operated exclusively for educational and scientific purposes:
a) to encourage the development and dissemination of knowledge in the area of simulation; and
b) to promote communication and interaction among individuals and organizations who share an interest in simulation.
The society have Conference that’s so calles the Winter Simulation Conference
Free papers have classified from Tutorial to Advanced Applications of M&S
