Motivation
Cosmological and astrophysical simulations are becoming increasingly sophisticated and realistic as the increasing capacity of high performance computers allows a wider range of physical processes to be modelled, at resolutions matching our observational capabilities. Similarly, comprehensive instrument modelling can produce realistic performance predictions. The synergy of astrophysical and instrumental simulations provides a powerful way to maximise the potential of our future facilities, and is indeed essential as we head into an era of large astrophysical surveys. This workshop aims to bring together these two communities with the aim of increasing the awareness and forging new partnerships.
