For a Special Issue on
Reimagining Tomorrow with Simulation

Overview of Special Issue:

This Special Issue aims at introducing selected and extended papers from the Winter Simulation Conference 2022 (WSC 2022). The theme of the special issue is derived from the title of the WSC 2022 conference - “Reimagine Tomorrow”.  Authors presenting at other relevant conferences such as the Korean Industrial and Systems Engineering Spring Conference (KSIE 2022 Spring Conference) and the International Conference on Modeling & Analysis of Semiconductor Manufacturing (MASM) will also be invited to submit extended versions of their work for inclusion to the special issue. The editing team encourages authors to extend their conference papers with scientific backgrounds and research outputs validated by experiments so that submissions can meet the publication guideline of Journal of Simulation (JOS).  Contributions from academics and practitioners will be sought showcasing applied case studies and theoretical and methodological developments, with a specific focus on the use of simulation in combination with related technologies such as Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Bio-Technology, Internet of Things, Digital Twins, Quantum Computing, and Virtual Reality.

Subjects covered:

The Special Issue involves academic research papers on developments in simulation methodology and analysis and applied case studies. Suggested topics include but are not limited to: Simulation Analytics, Simulation and Digital Twins, Simulation & AI, Hybrid Simulation, Environment and Sustainability Applications, Healthcare Applications, Manufacturing Applications, and Simulation Education.
