The Annual Modeling and Simulation Conference (ANNSIM) is a new annual conference of the Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS) after merging SpringSim and SummerSim into a single conference starting in 2021. Built on strengths of SpringSim and SummerSim, ANNSIM 2021 is the flagship conference of SCS to cover state-of-the-art developments in Modeling & Simulation (M&S).

We invite original contributions to the theory and practice of modeling and simulation in all scientific and engineering disciplines. The conference is organized around a set of technical tracks that include but are not limited to:

• AI and Simulation (AIS)
• Annual Simulation Symposium (ANSS)
• Communications and Network Simulation (CNS)
• Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)
• Emerging Topic – Aspects of Pandemic Modeling (ET-APM)
• High Performance Computing and Simulation (HPC)
• Humans, Societies and Artificial Agents (HSAA)
• M&S Based Systems Engineering (MSBSE)
• M&S for Smart Energy Systems (MSSES)
• Modeling and Simulation in Cyber Security (MSCS)
• Modeling and Simulation in Medicine (MSM)
• Theory and Foundations for Modeling and Simulation (TMS)

ANNSIM 2021 will be a hybrid conference accommodating both physical and virtual participations. The physical venue of the conference will be at George Mason University (Fairfax Campus). The conference includes keynote speeches presented by technology and industry leaders, technical sessions, as well as professional development tutorials. Scientists, engineers, managers, educators, and business professionals who develop or use M&S methodologies and tools are invited to participate and present original contributions.

All accepted research papers will be included in the conference proceedings and
may be archived in the ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore (approval pending), and
will be indexed in DBLP Computer Science Bibliography and SCOPUS. Best papers
will also be considered for a special issue of SIMULATION: Transactions of the
Society for Modeling and Simulation International.

Besides technical papers, submissions of the following types of contributions and/or
proposals are also welcome:

» Tutorials (max 2 hours). A tutorial
proposal includes a tutorial description
(max 2 pages) to be submitted to the
tutorial track. In addition, a tutorial
may submit a full paper to one of
the technical tracks. The full paper
will go through a review process and
be included in the SCS conference
proceedings if accepted.

» Extended abstracts (max 2 pages)

» Live demonstrations to be given during
the conference
