Dear colleagues:



The *Modeling and Simulation Division* of the Institute of Industrial &
Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring a track at the 2020 IISE Annual
Conference & Expo. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and
discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering research and
practitioner communities. The 2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo will
continue to integrate research and industry applications under one
conference.



We encourage you to contribute to the conference and track by *submitting a
one-page extended abstract* (template provided at
http://conferenceabstracts.com/IISE2020.htm). Abstracts are welcome in all
areas related to modeling and simulation, including methodological advances
(e.g., agent-based simulation, simulation optimization, input and output
analysis, hybrid simulation, etc.), simulation applications (e.g.,
manufacturing, healthcare, energy, transportation, cybersecurity, emergency
preparedness, finance, digital twins, etc.), virtual reality, and
simulation education.



Important deadlines:

●    Abstract submission deadline:
November 8, 2019

●    Notification of decision on abstract:
December 5, 2019

●    Paper submission deadline (optional but encouraged):
  January
20, 2020

●    Notification of decision on paper:
February 24, 2020

●    Paper final revision submission deadline:
March 13, 2020

●    Presenting author registration deadline:
March 13, 2020



Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to present their work in a
conference session. Regular sessions will be 80 minutes and have up to four
presenters. *There are also opportunities to organize special sessions
(e.g., tutorials, panels, workshops). If you are interested in organizing
such a session, please contact the track chairs by October 15, 2019. *



Authors will be able to claim these works as refereed extended abstracts,
which will be available on the conference website and can be cited. They
will not be copyrighted or indexed in the official conference proceedings,
and therefore there is no limitation on reusing extended abstract material
for other purposes (e.g., toward the publication of journal papers or
subsequent conference proceedings).



If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) the presenting author for the
paper must register for the conference by March 13, 2020
(presentations/papers without the presenting author being registered for
the conference will be withdrawn from the program and the proceedings); (b)
the presenting author must attend and present the paper at the conference;
and (c) we ask that you be ready to serve as a reviewer for other papers in
the track and follow the review deadlines.



We also encourage all presenters to submit a full-length paper for the
conference proceedings. The papers should contain methods and results that
are *significant* and have *archival value* to the industrial and systems
engineering community. Full papers have a six-page limit and will undergo a
double-blind peer-review process. All accepted papers will be copyrighted
and indexed in the conference proceedings via ProQuest.



We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!
