A three-day workshop on advances in simulation-driven optimization and modeling methodologies, ASDOM 2013, will be held at the Reykjavik University, Iceland, in August 2013. The workshop will be focused on reviewing the state-of-the-art engineering modeling and optimization techniques, providing a forum for cross-disciplinary discussion, as well as promoting important topics for the future research and development.

This is a second edition of ASDOM, the first one held in 2011, also at Reykjavik University (see: ASDOM 2011, http://eomc.ru.is/asdom2011).

Workshop topics:
- Simulation-driven design
- Knowledge-based methods
- Multidisciplinary design and optimization
- Optimization methods for CPU-intensive engineering problems
- Multi-fidelity analysis and optimization
- Surrogate-based modeling and optimization
- Function-approximation-based and physics-based surrogate models
- Space mapping and response correction techniques
- Approximation, interpolation and response surface methodologies
- Adjoint sensitivities in simulation-driven design
- Artificial neural network modeling of devices and systems
- Software architectures for optimization-oriented design
- Application case studies

Prospective speakers are encouraged to submit their proposals including the talk title and abstract to the organizers (Slawomir Koziel, koziel@ru.is, and/or Leifur Leifsson, leifurth@ru.is)
