                             Call for Papers

                    34th Annual Simulation Symposium
                        Renaissance Madison Hotel
                           Seattle, Washington 

                            April 22-26, 2001 

                              Sponsored by: 

                The Society for Computer Simulation (SCS) 

                          In cooperation with: 

                        The IEEE Computer Society 

                ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) 



The Annual Simulation Symposium is a forum for the exchange of ideas,
techniques, and applications among practitioners of simulation in
industry, government, and academia. This international Symposium is the
oldest continuously operating conference/symposium dedicated to
simulation.

The paper sessions are designed to promote discussion of concepts,
tools, methodologies, and results between authors and the audience. The
structure of the Symposium also provides for a degree of collegiality
and continuity in the discussions of the various topics presented during
the week.

Original contribution in all areas of modeling and simulation are
welcome. This year's Symposium is particularly seeking papers in the
following topical areas:

                  Simulation of Multiprocessor Architectures 
                  VLSI Circuit Simulators 
                  Simulation Languages, Tools, and Environments 
                  Object-Oriented Simulation 
                  Simulation of Distributed Systems and Databases 
                  Simulation of Parallel Processing Systems 
                  Simulation based Performance Analysis 
                  Animations/Virtual Reality 
                  Advances in Simulation Methodology and Practices 
                  Network Modeling and Simulation 
                  Simulation of Multimedia Applications and Systems 
                  Parallel and Distributed Simulation 
                  Artificial Intelligence in Simulation 
                  Neural Network Models and Simulation 
                  Web-based Modeling and Simulation

PAPER SUBMISSION:

It is strongly recommended that papers be submitted to one of the
program co-chairs by electronic mail. Papers can also be submitted
electronically via anonymous ftp to agent.csd.auth.gr/ANNSS34. Those
unable to use electronic means should mail five (5) complete copies of
the paper to Professor Mohsen Guizani by October 20, 2000.

IMPORTANT DATES

Paper Submission Deadline: 10/20/2000
Acceptance Notification: 11/30/2000
Camera-Ready Paper: 1/15/2001

All submissions will be fully refereed for accuracy, technical content,
and relevance. Papers should be NO longer than 20 double-spaced pages.
Please include full name, affiliation, address, phone number, and email
address of each author and designate the author who is to be contacted.
Authors will receive the reviewers' comments and will be given a chance
to respond to these reviews. Authors' replies will be taken into
consideration in the final paper selection decision. Accepted papers
will appear in the Symposium's Proceedings which will be published by
the IEEE Computer Society. Authors of top papers will also be encouraged
to submit a follow-on paper for publication in the SCS Journals.

Only papers that have not been previously published or presented should
be submitted. Authors must obtain employer, client, or government
releases prior to submitting the final manuscript.
