The Summer Simulation Conference 2015 (SummerSim 2015) is SCS's premier international conference in cooperation with ACM SIGSIM. The conference focuses on modeling and simulation, tools, theory, methodologies and applications and provides a forum for the latest R&D results in academia and industry. This year’s focus is on hybrid, discrete and continuous systems, and the role of M&S in addressing complexity. We encourage you to take this opportunity to experience the tutorials, tracks, and workshops that will be available.

Authors of accepted papers are expected to attend the conference, present their work to their peers, transfer copyright, and pay a conference registration fee at the time their camera-ready paper is submitted. All papers will be included in the conference proceedings and archived in both the SCS digital library and the ACM Digital Library, and will be indexed in DBLP and SCOPUS.

A selected group of the best papers of SummerSim 2015 will be invited to be published in a Special Issue devoted to SummerSim 2015. At the moment, the committee are looking for appropriate venues of journal publications. All authors are encouraged to submit extended versions of their papers to the Special Issue according to the guidelines found on the webpage. Please see more details at: http://www.scs.org/summersim.
