Important Information for Authors:

Extended abstracts (2-3 pages for full papers and 1 page for short papers typewritten without drawing and tables) are due to arrive in quadruplicate at the European Simulation Office June 30th, 1995.
Only original Papers, written in English, which have not previously been published elsewhere will be accepted. In case you want to organize a panel discussion, please contact the Program Chairmen.
Authors are expected to register early (at a reduced fee) and to attend the Conference at their own expense to present the accepted papers. If early registration and payment are not made, the paper will not be published in the Conference Proceedings. In the case of multiple authors, one author should be identified as the person who will act as the correspondent for the paper.
Abstracts will be reviewed by three members of the International Program Committee for full papers and one member for short papers. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent by July 15, 1995.
An author kit with complete instructions for preparing a camera-ready copy for the Proceedings will be sent to authors of accepted abstracts. The camera-ready copy of the papers must be in by August 31, 1995. Only the full papers, which are expected to be five pages long, will be published in the Conference Proceedings. In order to guarantee a high-quality Conference, the full papers will be reviewed as well, to check whether the suggestions of the program committee have been incorporated. The nominees for the best paper awards will be selected as well.

Important Dates:

Submission Deadline: June 30, 1995

Acceptance Notification: July 15, 1995

Camera-ready Copies: August 31, 1995

Conference Information:

The ESS series (organized by SCS, the Society for Computer Simulation International) is now in its seventh year. SCS is an International non-profit organization founded in 1952. On a yearly basis SCS organizes six Simulation Conferences worldwide, cooperates in two others, and publishes the monthly magazine "Simulation", a quarterly "Transactions", and books. Follow the link to get more information about the Society's conference schedule.

Exhibits:

An exhibition will be held in the area, where the participants are having coffee during the breaks. There will be a special exhibition section for universities and non-profit organizations, and a special section for publishers and commercial stands. If you would like to participate in the exhibition, please contact the European Office.

About Erlangen:

Erlangen has one of the largest computer science departments in Germany. It traditionally had strong research groups in the area of dependability and performance evaluation. It is situated near the medieval city of Nuremberg and the beautiful Franconian Forest. Erlangen is also the location of a large research and development facility of Siemens.
